svn Revision	Date (YYYY/MM/DD)	Author	PALM version	Type	Description
r3132	2018/07/16	raasch	5.0	B, C	SVN commit message: create consistent error messages in case of failed restarts, check existence of remote job catalog (palmrun)
r3130	2018/07/16	gronemeier	5.0	C	SVN commit message: calculate km according to MOST within the surface layer (surface_layer_fluxes_mod, turbulence_closure_mod) Caution: these changes will alter the simulation results if a constant flux layer is used!
r3127	2018/07/15	maronga	5.0	B, C	SVN commit message: bugfix for high vegetation surface temperatures (land_surface_model_mod.f90, radiation_model_mod.f90) Bugfix: Natural vegetation surfaces with dry soil cause high surface temperatures than may lead exceeding the limits of the Magnus formula, creating negative saturation water mixing ratios and leading to a model crash. This was fixed by limiting the surface temperature that enters the formula to 60°C. Change: Some pavement parameters have been updated (asphalt and concrete).
r3126	2018/07/13	gronemeier	5.0	B	SVN commit message: bugfix for pgi compiler: assign value of c_0 directly to variable instead of calculating it (model_1d_mod.f90)

Change: Improved default settings for radiative transfer calculations (shadows and surface reflections). Calculations activated by default (radiation_interactions = .TRUE.) only if vertical surfaces or trees are present. Flag average_radiation is set TRUE in this case, and it is no longer a namelist parameter. User can override this behavior by setting &radiation_parameters radiation_interactions_on = .F. (default value is TRUE). (init_3d_model, radiation_model_mod, surface_mod) Bugfixes: Deduct spinup_time from first RUN_CONTROL output time by using time_since_reference_point instead of simulated_time (palm) Edited read and write sky view factors and CSF routines to account for the sub-domains which may not contain any of them (radiation_model_mod) Replaced plant_canopy by npcbl to check tree existence to avoid weird allocation of related arrays (after domain decomposition some domains contain no trees although plant_canopy (global parameter) is still TRUE) (radiation_model_mod) Fixed bug in if statement for radiation_interactions (time_integration) New: Add plant canopy type to account for changes in LAD together with the ASCII input for 3D LAD distribution (plant_canopy_model_mod)

r2968	2018/04/13	suehring	5.0	B	SVN commit message: Bugfixes in initalization of land-surface model as well as timeseries data output in case of elevated model surfaces. (flow_statistics, init_grid, land_surface_model_mod, modules) In case of elevated model surfaces, i.e. the minimum orography height is higher than the first model grid level, mean horizontal profiles had zero values at first grid index (as this index lies within the topography). For correct initialization and data output, the minimum topography-top index is now calculated and used. Elevated surface levels may properly occur, e.g., in case of nested runs.
