New:
---

Adapted for machine lck
(mrun, mbuild, subjob)

bc_lr/bc_ns in most subroutines replaced by LOGICAL variables bc_lr_cyc,
bc_ns_cyc for speed optimization
(check_parameters, diffusion_u, diffusion_v, diffusion_w, modules)

Additional timestep criterion in case of simulations with plant canopy (timestep)

Check for illegal entries in section_xy|xz|yz that exceed nz+1|ny+1|nx+1
(check_parameters)

Clipping of dvrp output implemented. Default colourtable for particles
implemented, particle attributes (color, dvrp_size) can be set with new
parameters particle_color, particle_dvrpsize, color_interval,
dvrpsize_interval (init_dvrp, data_output_dvrp, modules, user_data_output_dvrp).
Slicer attributes (dvrp) are set with new routine set_slicer_attributes_dvrp
and are controlled with existing parameters slicer_range_limits.
(set_slicer_attributes_dvrp)

Ocean atmosphere coupling allows to use independent precursor runs in order
to account for different spin-up times. The time when coupling has to be
started is given by new inipar parameter coupling_start_time. The precursor
ocean run has to be started using new mrun option "-y" in order to add
appendix "_O" to all output files.

to NetCDF-file anymore. (data_output_profiles, modules, read_var_list, write_var_list)

Small change in formatting of the message handling routine concering the output in the
job protocoll. (message)

independent of turbulent_inflow (check_parameters, header, init_3d_model)

2 NetCDF error numbers changed. (data_output_3d)

A Link to the website appendix_a.html is printed for further information
about the possible errors. (message)

replaced by the gradient criterion of Sullivan et al. (1998). (flow_statistics)

NetCDF unit attribute in timeseries output in case of statistic regions added
(netcdf)

Output of NetCDF messages with aid of message handling routine.

Maximum number of tails is calculated from maximum number of particles and
skip_particles_for_tail (init_particles)

Value of vertical_particle_advection may differ for each particle group
(advec_particles, header, modules)

First constant in array den also defined as type double. (eqn_state_seawater)

Errors:


Bugfix: Initial hydrostatic pressure profile in case of ocean runs is now
calculated in 5 iteration steps. (init_ocean)

Bugfix: wrong sign in buoyancy production of ocean part in case of not using
the reference density (only in 3D routine production_e) (production_e)

Bugfix: output of averaged 2d/3d quantities requires that an avaraging
interval has been set, respective error message is included (check_parameters)

Bugfix: Output on unit 14 only if requested by write_binary.
(user_last_actions)

Bugfix to avoid zero division by km_neutral (production_e)

Bugfix for extended NetCDF files: In order to avoid 'data mode' errors if
updated attributes are larger than their original size, NF90_PUT_ATT is called
in 'define mode' enclosed by NF90_REDEF and NF90_ENDDEF calls. This implies a
possible performance loss; an alternative strategy would be to ensure equal
attribute size in a job chain. (netcdf)

Bugfix: correction of initial volume flow for non-flat topography (init_3d_model)
Bugfix: zero initialization of arrays within buildings for 'cyclic_fill' (init_3d_model)

Bugfix: to_be_resorted => s_av for time-averaged scalars (data_output_2d, data_output_3d)

Bugfix: error in formatting the output (message)

Bugfix: avoid that ngp_2dh_s_inner becomes zero (init_3_model)

Typographical error: unit of wpt in dots_unit (modules)

Bugfix: error in check, if particles moved further than one subdomain length.
This check must not be applied for newly released particles. (advec_particles)

Bugfix: several tail counters are initialized, particle_tail_coordinates is
only written to file if its third index is > 0, arrays for tails are allocated
with a minimum size of 10 tails if there is no tail initially (init_particles,
advec_particles)

Bugfix: pressure included for profile output (check_parameters)

Bugfix: Type of count and count_rate changed to default INTEGER on NEC machines
(cpu_log)

Bugfix: output if particle time series only if particle advection is switched
on. (time_integration)

Bugfix: qsws was calculated in case of constant heatflux = .FALSE. (prandtl_fluxes)

Bugfix: averaging along z is not allowed for 2d quantities (e.g. u* and z0) (data_output_2d)

Typographical errors (netcdf)

If the inversion height calculated by the prerun is zero, inflow_damping_height
must be explicitly specified (init_3d_model)

Small bugfix concerning 3d 64bit netcdf output format (header)

Bugfix: dt_fixed removed from the restart file, because otherwise, no change
from a fixed to a variable timestep would be possible in restart runs.
(read_var_list, write_var_list)

Bugfix: initial setting of time_coupling in coupled restart runs (time_integration)

advec_particles, check_parameters, cpu_log, data_output_2d, data_output_3d, header, init_3d_model, init_particles, init_ocean, modules, netcdf, prandtl_fluxes, production_e, read_var_list, time_integration, user_last_actions, write_var_list

1840<td style="vertical-align: top;">New cloud physics code
1841implemented, which explicitly simulates single cloud droplets,
1842including droplet growth by condensation and collision. Using this code
1843requires to set the new inipar-parameter <span style="font-family: monospace;">cloud_droplets</span>
1844= .TRUE. and to use the particle package (by using the <span style="font-weight: bold;">mrun</span>-option <span style="font-family: monospace;">-p particles</span>).
1845Coupling between droplets and the thermodynamic quantities (potential
1846temperature and specific humidity) is regarded in the new subroutine <span style="font-family: monospace;">interaction_droplets_ptq</span>.

1852In connection with this new code implementation, several changes has
1853been made to the existing code:<br> <br>
1854The particle (droplet) size is now given as radius (previously
1855diameter). E.g., the name of the respective package parameter <span style="font-family: monospace;">diameter</span> has
1856changed to <span style="font-family: monospace;">radius</span>.<br>
1857<br>
1858The current weighting_factor and radius are stored as additional

1945faster than before).</li><li>Output of time-averaged 2d/3d
1946data (sections / volume data) is possible.</li><li>Output
1947of 2d-section data averaged along the direction normal to this section
1948can be done.</li><li>The user-interface has been extended
1949in order to allow 2d-/3d-output of user-defined quantities.</li></ul>The
1950kind of topography to be used is controlled by the new initialization
1951parameter <span style="font-family: monospace;">topography</span>.
1952Allowed values are <span style="font-style: italic;">'flat'</span>,
1953<span style="font-style: italic;">'single_building'</span>,
1954and <span style="font-style: italic;">'read_from_file'</span>.
1955The user can define his own special topography setting within the new
1956user-interface routine <span style="font-family: monospace;">user_init_grid</span>.
1957For the single building case, the&nbsp;building (rectangular) size
1958and position can be controlled with parameters <span style="font-family: monospace;">building_height</span>,
1959<span style="font-family: monospace;">building_length_x</span>,

1963<br>
1964The topography code is already optimized (vectorized) for use on the
1965NEC-SX6.<br><br>Output of time-averaged 2d-/3d-data can be
1966enabled by appending the string <span style="font-style: italic;">'_av'</span>
1967to the respective output quantities given with the new
1968runtime-parameter <span style="font-family: monospace;">data_output</span>
1969(see further below for the (name)changes in the parameters for data
1970output). Example: if a time-average of the vertical cross-section of
1971potential temperature is required, the user has to set <span style="font-family: monospace;">data_output</span> = <span style="font-style: italic;">'pt_xy_av'</span>.
1972In case of NetCDF-output, the time-averaged data is output to
1973additional files (seperate from the non-averaged output). The length of
1974the averaging interval and the temporal distance of the single
1975instantaneous sections (volumes) entering into this averaging is
1976controlled by the new runtime-parameters <span style="font-family: monospace;">averaging_interval</span>and
1977<span style="font-family: monospace;">dt_averaging_input</span>.
1978<br><br>An average normal to the direction of a

1989These quantities can be calculated using the new <span style="font-family: monospace;">CASE</span>-Entry <span style="font-style: italic;">'after integration'</span>
1990in the user-interface routine <span style="font-family: monospace;">user_actions</span>.<br><br>Optimization
1991of the cloud droplet code is mainly done by re-sorting all particles
1992after every timestep in a way that now all particles which belong to

2353turbulence recycling method of Kataoka and Mizuno (2002) has been
2354implemented. A precursor run must be used to initialize the main run
2355with a quasi-stationary turbulence state (see <span style="font-family: monospace;">initializing_actions</span> = <span style="font-style: italic;">'read_data_for_recycling'</span>).
2356The precursor run may have a smaller domain than the main run, which

2359new feature related with the recycling method is that within a job
2360chain, the number of processors or the virtual processor grid is now
2361allowed to&nbsp;change. Such a change modifies the domain decomposition
2362and requires that the PEs within a restart job have to know from which
2363file(s) they have to read their restart data (up to now there has been
2364a one to one relation between the restart files and the PEs, i.e.
2365processor 4 only reads data from file "_0004"). Informations about the
2366subdomain index limits of all restart files are now written by PE0 (to
2367file "_0000"). Also, all variables containing global values which do
2368not depend on the subdomain are written to file "_0000" only. In a
2369restart run, this file is opened by all PEs to read these global values
2370and the informations about the subdomain index limits. Depending on
2371these index limit information it is decided which restart file(s)
2372has/have to be opened in order to read the complete data necessary for

2411the intermediate result for vsws has to be multiplied by -u* instead by

2413scalar an additional interpolation of u* to the position of u and v,
