MM5 Modeling System Version 3

Version 3 Interpf Change Log

12/23/2004:

Changes in release-3-7:

Changes made in release-3-7

Changes since release-3-6:

03/04/03:

• Change default value for namelist variables psfc_method from logical to integer.

  • Affected file:
    namelist.input, namelist.input.SOC

• When SKINTEMP is used, only average temp is produced for TSEASFC in LOWBDY file.

  • Affected file:
    src/module_all_io.F

12/27/02:

Changes in release-3-6:

Changes made in release-3-6

Changes since release-3-5:

12/14/01:

• Removing optimization for compilation on IBM - it was too slow (to compile module_lateral_bdy.F).

  • Affected file:
    Makefile

12/5/01:

Changes in release-3-5:

Changes made in release-3-5

Changes since release-3-4:

11/15/00:

• Add comments in namelist back. If you are using a machine that doesn't like comments in namelist, copy namelist.input.SOC to namelist.input.

  • Affected file:
    namelist.input

• Change default output time periods in interpf.deck.cray.

  • Affected file:
    interpf.deck.cray

11/6/00:

Changes in release-3-4:

Changes made in release-3-4

Changes since release-3-3:

8/11/00:

• Uncomment the STOP statement when INTERPF detects an out-of-order interpolation.

• Affected file:
  src/module_hydro_interp.F

6/7/00:

• Simplify the way make is done. Now one needs only to type 'make' to compile on one's machine.

• Affected files:
  Makefile, configure.rules, macros_pregrid, macros_regridder (new)
  src/Makefile

3/13/00:

• Add compilation option for Linux using Portland Group Fortran 90 compiler.

Changes in release-3-3 (1/26/00):

• Allow processing time period to be less than a day. Use namelist variable less_than_24h = .TRUE. in record1, or see Doc/README.namelist for an example. Remember though to properly calculate substrate temperature for use in MM5 with ISOIL =0 or 1 option, one needs a time period of at least a full day.

• A mean SST field is added to LOWBDY output for use in MM5 to properly mask the land-sea contrast during nest initialization.

• Allow input pressure levels to vary between times. Set Ptop value in namelist record2, or see Doc/README.namelist for an example.

• Calculate mixing ratio from RH instead of specific humidity, since MM5 uses mixing ratio.

Changes in release-3-2 (9/27/99):

9/27/99:

• Correct an error to pass SNOWC field from input to output. Correction in the tar file since 9/7/99.

8/12/99:

• Added OpenMP parallel directives. Compile options on parallel Dec Alpha and IBM are available.

8/5/99:

• Added Cray batch job deck.
