CICE6.1.2
CICE6.1.2 is a minor update of CICE6.1.1 from March, 2020. It includes Icepack1.2.2. This and the Icepack tag include water isotopes as well as a couple of minor bug fixes that shouldn't affect science. This release updates the tx1 grid forcing dataset to JRA55, adds a couple of new namelist variables to improve model control, and contains several minor updates to scripts. Documentation has also been updated.
Major changes:
- Added water isotopes as diagnostic tracers in Icepack #423
Bug fixes:
- Set max_blocks=1 instead of 0, only problematic in some atypical decompositions #431
- Fix some general bugs in the IO implementation. These were not causing problems in standard configurations, but were detected with extended IO testing #444, #447
Enhancements:
-
Update icepack to version 1.2.2 #460
-
Update tx1 test forcing to JRA55 #435
-
Add snow conductivity (ksno) into namelist #433
-
Add precision namelist to control real and double precision history files #446
-
Add conserv_check namelist to turn on internal conservation checks. This results in an abort if the internal check does not verify #450
-
Add ustar convergence control via a new atmiter_conv namelist variable #452
-
Upgrades for data assimilation using JEDI #427
-
Update HYCOM wind file forcing notation #425
-
Add some additional namelist checks and modify namelist checks abort message #459
-
Add ability to set compile cppdefs via ICE_CPPDEFS variable in the cice.settings file #448, #460
-
Improved test reporting for suites #428
-
Add pio testing on cheyenne leveraging prebuilt pio libraries #447
-
Remove old vector directives #453 (Note that this changed answers for cray compilers)
-
Migrate input data to zenodo #424
-
Machine updates including ports to hera intel, orion intel, cheyenne pgi, and cheyenne gnu #418, #424, #432, #438, #372, #447, #449, #460, #462
Documentation
- Update namelist tables including documentation of internal code defaults #459
- Update documentation in general
