Main changes

Improvements for coupling with atmospheric models

  • Multiple fixes for AWI-CM3 #352, #374
  • FESOM main split in three parts (as required for IFS coupling) #195
  • Add a switch to build FESOM as library (for IFS coupling) #207 #229, #231
  • Implement IFS interface #224, #238, #239, #327
  • IFS coupling related changes #321, #324, #331, #332, #429, #433
  • Send ocean variables to IFS to output them on atmospheric grid #435
  • Big IFS related update #388, that includes:
    • coupling of surface ocean currents (took nodal velocities instead of velocities on elements)
    • optimization of coupling interface (packing of fields, p2p instead of alltoallv) following what was done for NEMO4
    • extra diagnostics are available on IFS grid (MLD, ave T 300m, ave S 300m, 20C isotherm, etc) and thus in GRIB output
    • reduced standard I/O output in single-executable runs

Compiler and HPC support

New features

  • Automatic rotation for vector fields, no need or rotation in postprocessing #301, #335
  • Allow topography to be read on elements and nodes #359
  • Support for driving FESOM with the windstress (instead of the wind speed -> bulk formulas) from reanalysis #366
  • Add MLD3 with cmor compliant density threshold of 0.03 kg/m³ #383
  • Chlorophyll climatology can be used instead of constant value. Shall be activated through namelist #339
  • Add Langmuir Parameterisation for TKE, update IDEMIX parameter #340
  • Transposed 3D output files via preprocessor definition #193
  • add the output of density class thickness to the DMOC diagnostic for the proper remapping to zcoordinates #372
  • Additional IO output for upper levels for nextGEMS #436

Improvements for High resolution simulations

  • Brunt-Vaisala frequency is smoothed spatially before it is given to the mixing schemes. This damps some mode which is expressed as a grid noise in the modelled fields (mainly at the equator) #287
  • Smoothing Bv in vertical is necessary in order to avoid vertival noise in Kv/Av #385
  • Fix bug, when visc_gamma0, visc_gamma1 & visc_gamma2 were used instead gamma0_tra, gamma1_tra & gamma2_tra in diff_part_bh #276
  • Multiple bugs fixed in biharmonic tracer diffusion, that allow better results for high resolution simulations #277, #282
  • Bug fix in pressure_bv (depth computatiopn for pressure contribution) #320

Bug fixes

  • Multiple TKE+IDEMIX fixes #351
  • fix bug with reading runoff and SSS #177
  • Remove last occurence of execute_command_line function, was failing too often #318
  • Fix KPP bug related to sw_pene #237
  • Bug fix in update_atm_forcing. press_air array was accessed even if not allocated. #248
  • CFLMAX was not initialized in vert_vel_ale #253
  • Fixed treatment of sw_pene in cvmix_KPP #330
  • Fixed depth sign in the parameterisation of Langmuir circulations (LC in TKE) #353
  • zisotherm computation improved #401
  • diag_densMOC assumed that GM is used. An IF condition was introduced #410
  • Multiple bugfixes for cavity #390
  • Make sure that the restart works from zstar towrads linfs #375

Documentation

  • Includes the formerly separate documentation repository directly along with the source code #344
