  • Python bindings and wheel distribution for mHM (!138)
  • updated FORCES to v0.5 (!141, !157)
  • added silent mode (--quiet / -q) (!141)
  • Output: unification, selectable time reference point and bounds for all coordinates (!139)
    • added option output_time_reference[_mrm] to m[h|r]m_outputs.nml where users can now select the reference time stamp for the current time interval: 
      location of reference time point in outputs:
0: start of the time interval (i.e. 1990-01-01 00:00 for daily output on 1990-01-01)

mHM v5.10 (June 2019)

New Features:

  • New routing process introduced processCase(8) = 3 see Thober et al, 2019, GMDD, in press for more details
  • mRM is decoupled from mHM and mRM now resides in deps/mrm as an independent submodule more information on handling submodules
  • New option to compile mHM with cmake is provided, see more details under cmake manual.
  • Visualization/animation R script (producing PDF and GIF) of mHM netcdf files included under post-proc animate1.R
  • New option for coupling of mRM to a groundwater model (gw_coupling = .true.). The river head can be computed based on the Manning equation.

Bugs resolved from release 5.9:

  • Enable use of i8 for time_data in common/mo_read_forcing_nc.f90, otherwise netcdf time stamps with initial dates prior to 1900 were wrong (due to overflow)

Known bugs:

  1. Adaptive routing does not allow to run without at least 1 gauge specification
  2. Incompatibility of Finalparam.nml format between Intel and GNU
  3. If ProcessOption(3) is set to 3 and optimization is activated, the created FinalParam.nml misses the header for the namelist of the soil moisture parameters.
  4. Land cover scenes cannot be changed between the run generating the restart file and the run using the restart file. This causes unpredictable behaviour by the model.
  5. Simulation period must span overall land cover scenes specified in the namelist.
  6. Cut-off for link length is calculated with missing values, but those should be neglected.
  7. Using a higher routing resolution than hydrology resolution may cause segmentation faults because mapping from L1id on L11 is not working correctly
  8. If ProcessOption(5) is set to -1 and optimization is activated, the created FinalParam.nml misses the header for the namelist of the PET process.

Restrictions:

  • For gfortran compilers mHM supports only v4.8 and higher.
  • If you wish to use features connected to ground albedo neutrons (processCase(9)), please contact Martin Schrön.

mHM v5.9 (July 2018)

New Features:

  • Major restructuralization of the mHM code.

  • MPR is now executed before mHM is run.

  • MPR can be compiled as a standalone tool.

  • mHM without mRM can be compiled.

  • The code in general is strictly reorganized into modules that belong to their respective processes (MPR, mHM, mRM). This is not only done for constants, global variables and so on, but also for every module and the reading of input as well as the namelists.

  • This leads to the creation of those folders:

  • ./common (code shared by MPR, mHM and mRM) included for every compilation option

  • ./lib (code shared by MPR, mHM and mRM) included for every compilation option

  • ./MPR (code for MPR), not included for mRM standalone

  • ./common_mHM_mRM (code shared by mHM and mRM), not included for MPR standalone

  • ./mHM (code for mHM), not included for MPR and mRM standalone

  • ./mRM (code for mRM), not included for MPR standalone and mHM without routing

  • Code is reformatted (indentation=2, spacing unified)

  • Removed many duplicate code parts (e.g. shared between mHM and mRM)

  • Check cases are minimized (reduced output, shorter time periods (<=2 years), less basins)

  • Check cases can now be set up more easily (by use of model_wrapper for automatic creation of new nml files)

  • Check cases now run a python script for output comparison, advantage: tolerance now also allowed for ascii-output and support of 4-D netCDF files without time dimension

  • fSealed is now an effective parameter

  • mHM effective parameters now all have three dimensions internally (nCells_L1, [iHorizon, LAI-Time], nLCoverScenes)

  • Introduction of new derived types:

  • Grid (merge of basin_info, basin_info_mrm, gridGeoRef, nCells, longitude, latitude, Id) used for each level (0, 1, 11, 2) individually

  • GridRemapper (merge of lower_bound, upper_bound, etc.)

  • mhm_eval and mrm_eval now have common procedure interface (needed for fully flexible optimisation)

  • A new post-processor can check and adapt some fields for doxygen generation

  • Changes that are not backwards-compatible:

  • Restart files are restructured (now contain only the minimum required for restart):

  • MPR: effective parameters at L1 + grid information

  • mHM: effective parameters, states and fluxes at L1 + grid information

  • mRM: routing-specific parameters, states, fluxes, configs at L1/L11 + grid information

  • mhm.nml is restructured and not backwards compatible mainly due to the reorganization of modules in dependency of their processes

  • gridded LAI values are now used for all effective parameters (no fallback to LAIclasses anymore)

  • canopy height used for aerodynamic resistance is now scaled with the actual LAI timeseries and not with a dummy timeseries of intensive orchard

  • Considerable improvements and reduced redundancy in estimation of an empirical distribution of slopes (sort function in the mo_startup). Example for the Australian domain (180 million L0 cells), it reduced time for sorting slope from 32hours to only 1 minute.

  • mtCLIM preprocessor in pre-proc/mtCLIM, based on mtCLIM v4.3. This code is able to estimate humidity (vapore pressure or vapore pressure deficit) and incoming shortwave radiation based on meteorological variables (minimum and maximum air temperature, precipitation) and morphological characteristics of the underlying terrain (digital elevation model, slope, aspect).

  • mHM2OGS preprocessor in pre-proc/GIS2FEM3. This code converts the triangular-wise or quadrilateral-wise recharge data from mHM into the nodal source terms of a three dimensional finite element model for OGS.

  • Updated documentation for CYGWIN installations under Windows 7 and 10.

  • Added new objective function number 31: weighted NSE (NSE is weighted with observed discharge)

  • Removal of bin files and related code (only nc and ascii files are used)

Bugs resolved from release 5.8:

  • Enable use of i8 for time_data in common/mo_read_forcing_nc.f90, otherwise netcdf time stamps with initial dates prior to 1900 were wrong (due to overflow)

Known bugs:

None.

Restrictions:

  • For gfortran compilers mHM supports only v4.8 and higher.
  • If you wish to use features connected to ground albedo neutrons (processCase(9)), please contact Martin Schrön.

mHM v5.6 (Dec 2016)

New Features:

  • Routing extended: Implementation of a new parametrization for the routing model (processCase(8)=2). This routing option is based on an adaptive time step to improve the scalability and transferability of the model as well as a significant reduction in run time. The adaptive time step is calculated as ratio of routing resolution and celerity, the latter can be given as parameter in mhm_parameter.nml.

  • New option for providing soil data. They can be provided as predefined layers (one map per layer).
  • Speed up of mHM for big domains, due to reformulations in the model start up.
  • Pre-processing: new tools for i) cutting out a catchment from a existing dataset, ii) estimation of Hargreaves-Samani evapotranspiration, and iii) enlarging the grids of the input files.

Bugs resolved:

  • Assigning routing parameters is done properly now.

Known bugs:

  • Specifying a model time step of 24h (in mhm.nml) does not work, please stick with the default time step (1h)

Restrictions:

  • New calibration objectives have been incorporated. It is now possible, additionally to the former objectives, to calibrate mHM against additional input data:
    • total water storage (e.g. GRACE) and discharge simultaneously (opti_function=15), and/or
    • cosmic ray neutron counts (opti_function=17).
  • New post-processing: a mHM python class for reading all inputs and outputs of a model run can be found in post-proc/.
  • Reorganization of the NetCDF writing in mHM to simply future implementations of additional outputs.

Bugs resolved:

  • Calibration with catchment average soil moisture (opti_function=10) works properly now.
  • Discharge output for multi basin runs with different time periods for each basin works properly now.
  • Hargreaves-Samani PET calculation (processCase(5)=1) is valid on southern hemisphere too now.

Known bugs:

  • None.

Restrictions:

  • For gfortran compilers mHM supports only v4.8 and higher.
  • If you wish to use a special process description of evapotranspiration (processCase(4)) please contact Matthias Zink.
  • If you wish to use features connected to ground albedo neutrons (processCase(9)), please contact Martin Schrön.

  • Several new objective functions, e.g. calibrating the Kling-Gupta efficiency of catchment's average soil moisture (opti_function=10) or calibrating multiple basins regarding Kling-Gupta efficiency of discharge (opti_function=14) among others; calibration against soil moisture is still purpose to research (opti_function=10-14). The interested user may contact Matthias Zink for further details.

Bugs resolved:

  • Calibration using potential evapotranspiration from input file (i.e. processCase(4)=0) is now working properly

Known bugs:

  • Compiling mHM with the recent Cygwin version under Windows is leading to an error message indicating circular dependencies. The reason for this is Unicode characters in some source code files. Please contact [email protected], if you get this error message. We will provide you the files with cleaned characters..

Restrictions:

  • If you wish to use a special process description of evapotranspiration (i.e. Hargreaves-samani, Priestley-Taylor, or Penman-Monteith) please contact Matthias Zink. The special cases are set in mhm.nml (see processCase(4)).
  • If you wish to use the new feature of calculating neutron counts please contact Martin Schrön. The feature can be enabled in mhm.nml (see processCase(8)).

  • Possibility to discard multi-scale parameter regionalization (MPR) calculations (see perform_mpr)
  • Several process descriptions of evapotranspiration implemented (see processCase(4)): Read PET, Hargreaves-Samani, Priestley-Taylor, Penman-Monteith. Please contact Matthias Zink if you use one of the last three options, since the code is not under GNU Public license up to now.
  • Adding routines for signature calculations of time series (see mo_signatures)
  • New objective function for calibrating discharge with Kling-Gupta efficiency measure (KGE, see opti_function)
  • New output variables (see mhm_outputs.nml)
  • Sorting algorithm changed to public available library orderpack (see mo_orderpack)

Bugs resolved:

  • Some variables in restart file where not assigned correctly
  • Variables not initialized correctly

Known bugs:

  • Calibration using PET values read from the input file (processCase(5)=0) is running, but yields wrong results due to a wrong initialization of variables. The bug is resolved and will be released with version 5.3.

mHM 5.1 (Jun 2014)

New Features:

  • OpenMP handling of routines such as the multi-scale parameter regionalization (MPR)
  • Multi-scale implementation, i.e. running mHM simultaneously in several basins with different resolutions
  • Automatic check case framework, i.e. testing new implementations on their validity and back-compatibility

  • Windows compatible (with Cygwin)
  • Support of regular geographic coordinate systems (e.g lat-lon) in addition to equal-area coordinate systems (UTM)

Bugs resolved:

  • Initialization of states was not correct when running mHM in calibration mode.
  • Calculated parameter values (mhm_parameters.nml) not necessarily in bound (check added).
  • Aggregation/Disaggregation of meteorological data corrected.
  • Forecast with mHM did not work because modelling period was restricted to discharge data period.
  • Wrong mapping of evaluation discharge gauges for runs involving multiple gauges.

Known bugs:

  • Print out of River network in Config File is wrong for Multi-Basin setup, i.e., the River network is always properly written for the first basin, but not properly for subsequent basins when these are either different ones or the same one with a different Hydrology or Routing resolution.
