Zero-diff to Previous Release: NO

Restart Changes: YES

Summary of changes for the refactored GOCART-2G:

  • This is the first release of GEOSgcm that includes GOCART-2G, a refactoring of the GOCART component that adopts the ESMF for every child component and refactors the multi-instantiation mechanism. GOCART-2G only includes aerosols; other trace gases are not included by design.
  • This release also includes new science, including the inclusion of secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) and Brown Carbon. In this implementation, Brown Carbon is comprise of that portion of Organic Carbon emitted by biomass burning, having absorptive properties.
  • This release also introduces the notion of a "Process Library" which replaces what used to be found under Chem_Shared; it also eliminates any dependency on Chem_Base. The @GOCART repository is shared with NOAA and has been implemented in the UFS.
  • Several new restarts (achem,cabc,cabr,caoc,du,ni,ss,su) have been added since the gridded components of GOCART-2G have been split out accordingly.
  • GOCART-2G required changes in many other sub-repositories. Users are encouraged to look through those individually for a detailed list of changes.

  3. Bugfix for coupled mode renaming TSKINI to TSKINICE.
  4. Bugfix for DTDT_moist which was initially set to temperature but never updated to provide tendency.
  5. Compute the lightning flash rate (LFR) online following the approach used by GEOSCHEMchem_GridComp. The LFR is calculated in MOIST and then made available to other components as a new export field (LFR_GCC).
  6. Modified the mk_Restarts script to run on SLES-12.
  7. Update RRTMGP to Pincus 2020-Feb-12.
  8. New Surface parameter resource file (GEOSsurface_GridComp/Shared/GEOS_SurfaceGridComp.rc) to avoid having to add new parameters into AGCM.rc.tmpl and prepare for further science development.
  9. Correcting the following issues with the single column model: (1) GF imports from DYN were not filled; (2) scm_setup incompletely adjusted for L132; (3) SST file for cfmip_s11 case was incorrect.
  10. Allows regrid.pl to run on SLES-12
  11. Enabled compilation of convert_aerosols.x as R8

[10.12.1] - 2020-03-27

Zero-diff to previous release: YES

Restart Changes: NO except moist_internal has an additional 3 fields: NGRAUPEL, NRAIN, NSNOW

Major changes are:

  1. Broader support for various computing environments including SLES12. Adds a new question to gcm_setup (and other setup scripts) that asks a user what type of processor to run on. It then uses the "default" number of cores per those processors to better figure out how to handle the IOserver nodes.
  2. Changes that enable MAPL2 GEOS to work with MPT at NCCS.
  3. Changed REPLAY_Shutoff alarm from NON-STICKY to STICKY, and used it in GAAS to stop updates in forecasts during REPLAY mode.
  4. Updates to moist and GOCART using 2MOMENT microphysics and MG3. These are 0-diff when running the default 1MOMENT microphysics.
  5. Modified gcmpost.script to only operate on pressure-level collections.
  6. Fixes issues where systems do not have either ImageMagick or F2Py. If F2Py is not found, then F2Py targets are not built.
  7. Changes to GMAO_hermes:
    • Split off the independent sections of module m_topo_remap used by FV core into shared_topo_remap
    • write_eta.F90 added to prepare for a config file which eventually will replace m_set_eta module
    • Add option to build HERMES_LIGHT

[10.12.0] - 2020-03-09

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: NO

Major changes are:

  1. Fixed "zero-diff" issue related to GF evaporation vs total rain, fixed GF cloud-mass-flux scaling issue.

  2. Move ShallowCu contribution to mass flux and add scale-dependent stochastics to convection.

[10.11.0] - 2020-03-04

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: NO

Major changes are:

  1. RRTMG_SW: Updates RRTMG_SW in GEOS to be equivalent to RRTMG_SW v4.10. This fix increases the heating rates near the stratospause region and is a non zero-diff change.

  2. RAS_NO_NEG: Provides an optional flag that ensures RAS results are non-negative. This is an important fix for chemical species that was extremely useful in the Icarus but did not make it into Jason. The fix is "off" by default and therefore zero-diff.

  3. Plots:

  • Enable additional upper levels for forecast stats plots.
  • Add QITOT & QLTOT to horizontal plots.
  • Add aerosols to time series plots.

Other updates:

  • Remove #PBS pragmas at NCCS to use #SBATCH.
  • Brought the chem setup scripts in line with gcm_setup.
  • Bug fixes for gcm_run and gcm_forecast scripts.

[10.10.0] - 2020-02-20

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: NO

This release is equivalent to the NOAA 2019.01.01 Release but with the addition of GEOS constants controlled by -DMAPL_MODE. Additional changes allow building with CMake.

[10.9.0] - 2020-02-13

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: NO

This release is equivalent in physics to v10.8.0 but now uses MAPL 2.0. The release is non-zero-diff due to the use of ESMF regridding for History and ExtData.

Also, this version of GEOSgcm now uses the new PFIO IO server to handle History and ExtData file access and writing. By default, these IO servers run on the same resources (i.e., nodes) as the application. However, gcm_setup and gcm_run.j have been altered so that, by default, at high-resolution (C180+) the IO servers are on separate nodes for performance and memory reasons.

[10.8.0] - 2020-02-06

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: NO (only if AOIL_COMP_SWITCH=ON)

Recoded atmosphere-ocean interface layer (AOIL). Provides an option to exercise old/new versions of the AOIL.

  1. Old version (AOIL_COMP_SWITCH = ON): Default. Using the old interface is still non-zero diff to x0039, however, shown to be statistically insignificant in terms of forecast skill scores. Restarts with old interface can be used as is.

  2. New version (AOIL_COMP_SWITCH = OFF): If the new interface is turned on, then the user must provide additional fields in the internal state. Contact Santha Akella for a utility to do that.

[10.7.0] - 2020-02-04

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Zero-diff to CVS tag Jason-3_5_aoil

Restart Changes: NO

  1. Correction to RRTMG Shortwave 'layreffr' variable to reduce stratospheric cold bias.
  2. Stats plots updates to produce stratospheric forecast statistics up to 1mb.
  3. Correction to gcm_run.j & gcm_forecast.tmpl related to REPLAY with GAAS aod files.

[10.6.0] - 2020-01-31

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: NO

  1. Atmospheric constituents (aersols, co, co2, etc) are now transported through moist/GF. This is equivalent to the way transport is handled in f525land_fpp/f525_fp.
  2. Added exports for nitrate tendency and other fluxes related to GF convection.
  3. Added nitrate tendency to history templates.
  4. Upgraded to GEOSchem_GridComp to v1.1.0.
  5. Set the default k_split = 2.
  6. Fixed gcm_convert.j to work consistent with how gcm_setup and gcm_run.j interact.

[10.5.0] - 2020-01-24

Zero-diff to previous release: YES (but user must setup experiment differently)

Restart Changes: NO

  1. Hotfixed a bug to enable regridding of catchement restarts from MERRA2

  2. REPLAY updates:

    The REPLAY algorithm within the GEOSagcm has been modified to enable a 4DIAU methodology consistent with that used in DAS mode. Prior to this release, REPLAY could only incorporate one analysis increment within the CORRECTOR_DURATION window (nominally 6-hours). The 4DIAU update allows for multiple analysis increments to be used within the CORRECTOR window. The number of increments that wiil be used is determined by the settings of the REPLAY_FILE_FREQUENCY (in nnnnnn seconds format) and the REPLAY_FILE_REFERENCE_TIME (in HHMMSS format). Based on these two settings, the code will determine how many analysis increments will properly fit within the CORRECTOR window. Note: the previous setting of PREDICTOR_DURATION is no longer needed since the code computes the required length automatically.

    The updated algorthm allows for 2 types of REPLAY:

    1. Exact (Uses Archived Increment Files)

      Exact REPLAYs identically reproduce (bit-for-bit) a previous GEOS DAS experiment by simply using the archived IAU forcing from the DAS experiment. For these cases, only the CORRECTOR step is employed and is, therefore, as efficient as a stand-alone model run.

    2. Regular (Uses Archived Analysis/Assimilation Files)

      Regular REPLAYs are used to mimic the original IAU methodology, i.e., both the PREDICTOR and the CORRECTOR steps are employed. The key difference being that the Analysis is based on archived datasets. These Analyses may be from the GEOS DAS system, or from any other source that is written using the appropriate GEOS DAS ana.eta data format.

    For more detailed information, please see the comments within the AGCM.rc.tmpl file.

[10.4.0] - 2020-01-13

  7. Bug fix for comments using GNU compilers with Ninja.

[10.3.5] - 2019-11-07

Zero-diff to previous release: YES

Restart Changes: NO

  1. Enable reading netCDF increments during EXACT replay.
  2. Fixed issues affecting the MOIST aerosol diagnostics:
    1. incorrect mapping of tracer names to diagnostics

  7. Removed shallow.F90 which is no longer used.
  8. Updated gcm_regress.j to be able to test both agcm and coupled models.
  9. Remove references to gcm_stats.j in setup.

[10.3.4] - 2019-10-01

Zero-diff to previous release: YES

Restart Changes: NO

  1. Fields out of the MTR bundle came in the "wrong" order and affected the Henry's law constants. Hotfix to fetch field by name instead of by index.
  2. Fixed triangular pdf option in SHUW.
  3. Update chemistry to v1.0.2 to run GMI and Stratchem. Updated the StratChem and GMIchem setup scripts to better match gcm_setup.

  2. Updates for Travis CI

[10.3.2 / Jason-3_2] - 2019-08-02

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: NO

Restart Changes: None.

[10.3.1 / Jason-3_1] - 2019-06-13

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: NO

Model Changes

  1. Updates to GuestOcean_GridComp.F90 to re-sync OCEAN clock with ATMOS clock when running Regular REPLAY together with DataOcean. (non-zero diff)
  2. Introduced code in MAPL_CFIO for HISTORY which corresponds to the "fix_undef" utility used in MERRA-2 post-processing. This creates consistency between horizontally transformed and vertically interpolated quantities and the target output level (i.e., values below surface are UNDEF).
  3. MKIAU has been modified to allow for REPLAYing to different vertical resolution. Results are zero-diff to previous versions if vertical resolution is the same.
  4. Updates to mk_restarts for Land/Catch. Zero-diff when regrid.pl points to standard (old-land) Icarus/Jason boundary area.

[10.3.0 / Jason-3_0] - 2019-05-03

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: NO (with caveats)

Due to changes in import states and diagnostics, these restarts have changed but are passive to the prognostic restarts:

  • irrad_internal_rst
  • surf_import_rst
  • tr_internal_rst
  • turb_import_rst

Model Changes

  1. Zero-Diff update to FV3 dynamics to allow FV3+ADV option
  2. Updates from Mike Manyin to his tag: Jason-2_2_MEM_2
  3. This tag primarily is a Merge between Jason-2_2 and Andrea Molod's coupled tag. This produces a non-zero diff to Jason-2_2 due to a modified surface layer interface.

[Jason-2_2] - 2019-04-25

Zero-diff to previous release: YES (in default mode)

Restart Changes: NO (with caveats)

There was a long_name change in TR restart

Model Changes

  1. StratChem updated to tag: Jason-2_0_MEM_2, as well as updates to GEOS-Chem and HEMCO from Mike Manyin
  2. CARMA updated to tag: prc+asd-AeroChem-Icarus-3_3_p2+a1-v7 from Pete Colarco (with minor mods in DustEmissionMod.F90 because of an interface differences)
  3. GIT related updates.

[Jason-2_1] - 2019-04-17

Zero-diff to previous release: YES (in default mode)

Restart Changes: YES

  • turb_import_rst: Simply Bootstrap.
  • surf_import_rst: Simply Bootstrap.
  • irrad_internal_rst (passive, for clear-sky diagnostics only): Simply Bootstrap

Model Changes

  1. Retuning when using NewLand.

  3. Modifications for New RRTMG diagnostics.
  4. Updates for regrid.pl and related code.
  5. StratChem updated to tag: Jason-2_0_MEM_1
  6. GIT related updates.

[Jason-2_0] - 2019-03-04

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: YES

  • solar_internal_rst (for RRTMG). Simply Bootstrap.

Model Changes

  1. This is a MAJOR update to include updated moist processes based on the tag: merge_JDB7p1_retuned
  • It uses RRTMG for BOTH Shortwave and Longwave radiation.
  • It uses the GF Convection Scheme, as well as the UW Shallow Cumulus scheme.
  • It uses dynamics tunings based on the DYAMOND experiments.
  1. Option included for running Stochastic Physics.
  2. 2nd-Moment Cloud MicroPhysics updated to tag: b_Jason_2_0_donifan

[Jason-1_1] - 2019-01-23

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: YES

  • GOCART IMPORT was modified by adding LWI and FRACI to be non-skip
  • TR IMPORT was modified by removing ALL but CLDTT (from RAD), since TR is run after SURF RUN(1,2)
  • Note: When TR adopts a 2-phase approach, additional IMPORT variables from SURF will need to be included.

Model Changes

  1. An error was found related to GOCART and TR regarding the TR and GOCART IMPORT restarts. This error was introduced going from Icarus-1_0_p1 to Icarus-2_0 with the splitting of GOCART into RUN1 and RUN2 methods. Essentially, the ordering in PHYSICS is: SURF,CHEM,TURB RUN1, followd by SURF,TURB,CHEM RUN2. Emissions are computed in CHEM RUN1 based on LWI locations. However, LWI is not computed until SURF RUN2. Therefore, LWI is required on the GOCART IMPORT. But this variable was labeled as RESTART_SKIP. The TR IMPORT did contain LWI, thus when TR was Enabled, GOCART saw the proper LWI. But when TR was Disabled, LWI was no longer available for GOCART, and resulted in non-zero differences. The quick solution was to label LWI as non-skip on the GOCART IMPORT restart.
  2. An error was found related to the TH_for_CHEM within the SYNC-TQ sequence. The error was fixed, but experiments showed negligible impact due to its second-order influence.
  3. Modifications to the STATS plotting package to include Mean-Square-Error decompostion.

[Jason-1_0_BETA] -- 2018-09-17

Zero-diff to previous release: NO

Restart Changes: YES

  • saltwater_internal ==> openwater_internal & seaicethermo_internal

Model Changes

  1. Saltwater split => openwater and seaicethermo. This means saltwater_internal is now two files: openwater_internal and seaicethermo_internal. saltwater_import remains. Regridding utility (regrid.pl) will always produce the split ocean with this tag. You can, however, provide the single saltwater_internal as input.
  2. Sponge Layer fix in FV3 to include damping between top model layer and bottom of sponge.
  3. Regridding in MAPL now done in a new abstract/OO paradigm. This leads to the new grid definitions in AGCM.rc
  4. New HISTORY.rc grid_label definitions. This HISTORY is designated as VERSION: 1. Older HISTORY files (using resolution attribute) will still work provided VERSION = 0.
  5. QUICKPLOT updates to produce automated "closeness" plots.
