Summary of user-affecting changes to PALM

(e.g. palmrun/palmbuild options/variables, .palm.iofiles, Namelist names and parameters, rrtmg changes require new build of rrtmg, etc)

• palmrun/palmbuild options -h and -d will be renamed -c and -r
• change 2
• etc

Summary of relevant code changes, new features

• ocean code has been modularized and put into new file ocean_mod.f90. Turbulence generation by wave breaking, as well as the Stokes drift have been implemented in the default code. New namelist ocean_parameters
• new module for processing chemistry emissions (chem_emissions_mod.f90)
• introduced changes to date_and_time_mod.f90 for calculations of time indices such as hour of the day or month of the year, according to the running time of the simulation
• New feature Multi Agent System (MAS) has been added. It is modularized in the new file multi_agent_system_mod.f90 and can be steered using the new namelist agent_parameters.
• Chemistry:
  • new module chem_emissions_mod.f90
  • introduced deposition of gases and particles in chemistry model
  • subroutines chem_check_parameters and chem_header
  • 2d and profile output for chemistry variables added
  • 'de-cycling' of chemistry variables at lateral boundaries
  • additions to UTILS/chemistry/gasphase_preproc and modifications of kpp4palm: automatic preparation of vector version, inclusion of fixed species, more mechanisms added (CBM4, phstat, phstatp, simplep, passive1)
  • about 1000 (at least if feels like this) small fixes
  • adaptation of namelist chemistry_parameters to new features
• change 3
