= 3_6_STABLE final sprint = == Sequence of actions for each branch == For each development branch to be committed in the trunk, following steps have been fullfilled: * Branch has been validated regarding its new features in appropriate way, and if possible tested on a CMIP6 like configuration or at least on the ORCA2_LIM3 reference configuration (using vvl) * SETTE tests passed:''' run sette.sh and sette_xios.sh''' * Reviewer has approved Since the timing is tight and we need to check each step, changes in the trunk will be made sequentially, and tested at each step. For a given branch to be commited, sequnce should be: * Update the branch to head of trunk * Final test of the branch * merge branch with trunk: this should include documentation in reference manual.... * SETTE test on new trunk * Commit new trunk * Send a mail to nemo_st to say you've finished (in order for the next branch to be able to start, see proposed agenda below) == == == Ongoing work == || Date || Description || PI || trunk rev. before commit || SETTE before || trunk rev. after commit || SETTE after || comments || || 1 june || Hollingsworth correction in the computation of the gradient of Kinetic Energy || PA Bouttier || 5302 || ok || 5328 || ok || An enhancement of performances has to be done but for now, it failed SETTE tests, so has not been committed yet.[[BR]]Update of reference manual still missing || || 1 june || Stochastic parameterization of the effect of unresolved scales in the equation of state || || 5328 || ok || 5329 || OK (except AGRIF conf) || SETTE Test with AGRIF configuration failed due to a (valid) fortran structure in storng.F90.

This release will be used by all CMIP6 experiments using NEMO (CERFACS, CMCC, EC_EARTH, Hadley Centre, IPSL)[[BR]]It includes all developments from 3_4_STABLE, i.e. 3_5, 3_6_beta, including the new XIOS IO system and some new features. '''Main new features''' (for details, see !http://www.nemo-ocean.eu/History-and-Release-notes): [[BR]] • Coupled interface for next IPCC requirements (multi category sea-ice, calving and iceberg module) [[BR]] • Runoff improved and SBC with BGC [[BR]] • Solar flux filtering at daily frequency to force BGC component [[BR]] • Major evolution of LIM sea-ice model (including LIM3 in mono category, i.e. similar to LIM2) [[BR]] • On line coarsening of ocean I/O[[BR]] • Ocean and ice allowed to be explicitly coupled through OASIS, using !StandAlone Surface module)[[BR]] • First steps of wave coupling [[BR]] • MPP optimisation [[BR]] • XIOS new IO system[[BR]] • Standard Fox Kemper parametrisation [[BR]] • Atmospheric forcing at land-ocean interface [[BR]] • Open boundaries: completion of BDY/OBC merge [[BR]] • Solved 2 time stepping issues[[BR]] • Faster split-explicit time stepping, Z-tilde ALE coordinates, implicit bottom friction [[BR]] • First version of Configuration Manager [[BR]] • Standalone OBS component and improvements in OBS&ASM [[BR]] • [[BR]] '''Features becoming obsolete:'''[[BR]] • LIM2[[BR]] '''Quick start guide''' available here: !http://www.nemo-ocean.eu/Using-NEMO/User-Guides/Basics/NEMO-Quick-Start-Guide [[BR]] '''Validation:'''[[BR]]3_6_STABLE has been validated as usual :so-called SETTE tests (restartability and reproducibility an each of the reference configurations ([http://www.nemo-ocean.eu/null http://www.nemo-ocean.eu/Using-NEMO/Configurations][http://www.nemo-ocean.eu/null )] and appropriate validations of all new developments. Details on validation can be found here: http://www.nemo-ocean.eu/Developing-with-NEMO/Validation/nemo-v3.6_STABLE-Validation '''WARNINGS:''' add here what remains to be tested, or still unsure, in this first revision of 3_6_STABLE, if needed '''Associated branches:''' to be done A few associated development branches will remain aside, at least until full validation. THose developement branches listed below will be kept up to date with 3_6_STABLE. A project needing one or more of these branches will have to 1. Extract 3_6_STABLE 1. Merge the needed development branch with 3_6_STABLE locally (see documentation here, to be done) List of assocated branches * On line coarsening of biogeochemistry: ''add description and location''
