Model Developments

Here is a description of the different versions of ORCHIDEE that are currently developed in parallel of the main version of ORCHIDEE (trunk). Ultimately, most of these versions shall be merged into the trunk.

Important general information for users of the trunk/branches:

Trunk evolutions around CMIP6

The trunk has undergone major developments to reach svn milestone 2.0 which was to have a model that was ready to be used in CMIP6:

  • tag 2.0: trunk r5107 holds our developments for CMIP6 and was tagged as tag2.0: complementary info and evaluations. Some revisions have followed, for output formatting (including enhancements for carbon), some particular configurations (e.g. nudging), updates for jean-zay and irene-amd as well as a new photosynthetic downregulation, to lessen the downregulation of photosynthesis at high CO2 values, shown to be excessive in earlier versions. This correction was committed in r6392 (it is added with keyword downregulation_co2_new set to false by default and for the CMIP6 runs).

    The versions used for IPSLCM6A-LR (configs IPSLCM6.1.0-LR to IPSLCM6.1.10-LR in modipsl/trunk/util/mod.def) correspond to revisions of tag2.0 from r5153 to r6268 (thus excluding the corrections to downregulation). As discussed in Boucher et al. (2020), the corresponding changes (and those of the other components) led to bit-comparable simulations of the default configuration. The paper of Cheruy et al. (2020) comparing ​IPSLCM6A-LR to ​IPSLCM5A-LR in AMIP configuration relies on IPSLCM6.1.9-LR, with ORCHIDEE r5661.

Other significant evolutions of the trunk followed:

  • trunk: The 2-layer soil hydrology (Choisnel scheme) and old snow scheme were removed in r5454 and r5470 respectively, and are also absent from subsequent model versions including tag2.1.
  • tag 2.1: based on trunk r5628 + bugs corrections, possibility to run with Dynamico, several updates of the libIGCM configurations + updates for jean-zay and irene-amd BUT the correction for downregulation that was implemented in tag2.0 has not been implemented in tag 2.1! Complementary info and evaluations.
  • branch 2.2: based on r5716 of tag2.1 (03/12/2019), includes a fix for negative soil water and the correction for downregulation (as tag 2.0) and improvements for CO2 coupling with LMDZ by Patricia Cadule.
  • trunk: from r5639 onwards includes the nitrogen cycle (12/03/2018) and soil carbon discretization from MICT (r5738 and further).
  • branch 3.0: created from r6610 of the trunk to implement code changes required to reach milestone 3.0.
  • trunk-head: with r6614 milestone 4.0 was reached. Compared to previous versions of the trunk the following functionality was added: two-way albedo calculation, vertical and horizontal discretization of the canopy, hydraulic plant architecture, stand density, anthropogenic and natural dynamics of stand density, and mass balance closure for carbon and nitrogen (03/06/2020). Current functionality is described here (with a focus on the new functionality).The TRUNK FORCE is currently working towards the objectives described in svn milestone 4.1. More detailed test results for r6616 and further are stored here.

Question: were all bugs corrected in the trunk since the start of tag2.0 propagated in branch 2_2? and vice-versa?
