Updates 2020-10-14

These updates are 0-diff to the previous release for the AGCM, but NON 0-diff for the coupled model. Additionally, there are two new variables (OLRB06RG and TBRB06RG) added to irrad_internal restart. Major changes include:

1. Add TOA RRTMG Band6 (window region) IR diagnostics.
2. Include new diagnostics for the constraints.
3. Clean up clumsy logic in GEOS_OpenWaterGridComp.F90 Issue #356
   a. removes the AOIL_COMP_SWITCH
   b. AOIL now properly works with the coupled model (non 0-diff)
   c. maintains 0-diff for uncoupled mode
   d. Computations to update the state variables (TW, SW, HW and other internals) are now performed via a call to AOIL_v0
   e. AOIL_v0 also provides following two options that are turned OFF by default:
   • provide a more gradual decay of diurnal warming as observed in nature: WARM_LAYER_GRAD_DECAY
   • update turbulent heat fluxes after the state variables have been updated: UPDATE_FLUXES_AOIL_SECOND_STEP

Non-zero-diff Bugfixes and Chem upgrade

Non-0-diff changes include:

1. Bugfix for computations in uwshcu.F90 that involved MAPL_UNDEF
2. Bug fix for GCC 10 with DRHOS0
3. Upgrade to GEOSchem_GridComp v1.4.1

Zero-diff updates and bug fixes

1. Update to FVdycoreCubed_Gridcomp v1.2.5
2. Update RRTMGP to master aug2020
3. NCL scripts added to generate MERRA2 forcing for SCM
4. Remove clock rewind only in replay logic for GuestOcean
5. Add melt_potential and fix Orphan Points for MOM6 plug/Guest ocean
6. Subroutines called from within OPENWATERCORE of GEOS_OpenWaterGridComp.F90 have been moved GMAO_Shared to be shared across applications/components
7. Clean up/simplify AOIL
8. Clean up of Saltwater's children
9. Genericize NCAR GWD Beres file location
10. PRECIPFRAC functionality for Catch and CatchCN
11. Updates to allow GEOS to build without MKL

FV3 Update

Adds an fv3_setup and fv3.j script for the FV3 Standalone

Bugfix for MOM5/MOM6

Enables building of MOM5/MOM6 with GNU compiler

MOM6 and Other Updates

Major new features and enhancements, but still 0-diff to default L72 level configuration. Changes include:

1. Updates to GFDL microphysics
2. Added NCAR GWD
3. Updates for JEDI Integration
4. Added MOM6

Updated Vertical Levels

Only 0-diff for 72L 1-MOMENT default configuration. Non-0-diff for ALL other options.

1. Support for increased vertical resolution and updates in FV3 and GFDL (still 0-diff for 72-level 1-MOMENT). New 71, 91, and 181-level options which have eta distributions similar to the ECMWF 137-level option. New 127-level option is similar to NCEP. Re-tuned surface mixing results in non-0-diff changes to the 132-level option.
2. River routing updates.
3. SLES12 bugfix reading LAI, GRN, NIRDF, VISDF and NDVI in (LDAS) ensemble mode.
4. CatchCN now gets daylength from MAPL sun code abstractly so it works with the new procession including type of orbit.
5. Fix MOM_GEOS5Plug MAPL Timers for RUN2.
6. New updates from S2S3 tag in CVS.
7. Updated to Chemistry v1.3.5.

RRTMG LW Bugfix & New GEOSchem_GridComp

A Zero-diff update. Changes include:

1. Bugfix for array bounds in RRTMG LW
2. Move to use Baselibs 6.0.13 in CI
3. Uptick to GEOSchem_GridComp v1.3.4

Bugfix for interp_restarts.x

1. Fix interp_restarts.x crash caused by MAPL 2.1
2. Bugfix for CircleCI

Zero-diff Updates

A Zero-diff update. Changes include:

1. Brings RRTMGP code up to date with recent Pincus Master changes as of 3 May 2020.
