Update to RRTMGP v1.7

This release of GEOSradiation_GridComp moves it to use RRTMGP v1.7. Note this release will not compile unless also used with RRTMGP v1.7 as there are file changes in CMake. Moreover, to run RRTMGP you also need a corresponding change in AGCM.rc, see GEOS-ESM/GEOSgcm_App#585

This release is zero-diff to GEOSradiation_GridComp v1.7 when not running RRTMGP, but is non-zero-diff for RRTMGP.

Note also that RRTMGP v1.7 can be run in Single Precision mode with the CMake option:

-DRRTMGP_SINGLE_PRECISION=ON

Tests show that single-precision RRTMGP is about 10-20% faster than DP. But, for now we are keeping the default build to be double precision by default until further testing. Per @dr0cloud:

I have noticed around a -0.15W/m2 difference in global OSR in SP mode, but individual clouds can be -2 W/m2 or more.

Updates for RRTMGP Validation and OceanBioGeoChem

This release of GEOSradiation_GridComp has two updates.

The first is a small change needed for ongoing OceanBioGeoChem work (#28). To use this completely needs updates in GEOSgcm_GridComp and GOCART. Contact @mfmehari for more information.

The second is an update for on-going validation of RRTMGP (#33). This adds a new CMake option, ENABLE_SOLAR_RADVAL which is default OFF. Enabling it will enable many new exports for validation purposes.

This update is non-zero-diff for RRTMGP but that is not run by default currently. For RRTMG they are either zero-diff or 'truncation zero-diff', but these changes should only affect diagnostic outputs. That said, the Solar Internal Restart will have some changes (see below) but the overall state of the model is zero-diff with RRTMG:

• Metadata changes (long_name)
  • CLDHISW: "high-level_cloud_area_fraction_rrtmg_sw_REFRESH" → "high-level_cloud_area_fraction_RRTMG_P_SW_REFRESH"
  • CLDLOSW: "low-level_cloud_area_fraction_rrtmg_sw_REFRESH" → "low-level_cloud_area_fraction_RRTMG_P_SW_REFRESH"
  • CLDMDSW: "mid-level_cloud_area_fraction_rrtmg_sw_REFRESH" → "mid-level_cloud_area_fraction_RRTMG_P_SW_REFRESH"
  • CLDTTSW: "total_cloud_area_fraction_rrtmg_sw_REFRESH" → "total_cloud_area_fraction_RRTMG_P_SW_REFRESH"
• Removed fields
  • TAUHIPAR
  • TAULOPAR
  • TAUMDPAR
  • TAUTTPAR
• Added fields
  • COTDENHIPAR
  • COTDENLOPAR
  • COTDENMDPAR

Load Balance Updates and Profiler Fixes

This release of GEOSradiation_GridComp has a few updates:

1. The Load Balancing code in Solar was reworked to not call MAPL_LoadBalance code when not load balancing. Previously, it used a naive approach which still did MPI calls for no reason. Now it avoids that.
2. Adds the ability to change the MaxPasses parameter when loadbalancing via the SOLAR_LB_MAX_PASSES: AGCM.rc resource. By default it uses 100 which is the default in MAPL
3. Fixes for the profilers. Testing by @wmputman and @atrayano at high-res found that some columns over an integration period might not have, say, any clouds. This would then avoid some code in RRTMG which meant some timers were not turned on-off on some processes. This lead to deadlocks in Finalize when the timers were outputted. Likewise, when the loadbalaning code was updated, it found that processes without lit points also avoided some profiler calls.

All testing shows this is zero-diff to GEOSradiaiton_GridComp v1.5.1

---

What's Changed

• GitFlow: Merge hotfix from main to develop by @mathomp4 in #25
• Bypass MAPL_LoadBalance when not running load balancing, add maxpasses as resource by @mathomp4 in #27
• GitFlow: Merge develop into main for release by @mathomp4 in #29

Full Changelog: v1.5.1...v1.6.0

Precision-fix for selectable T_MIN_OK

This release fixes a bug in the user-selectable T_MIN_OK code added in v1.5.0

---

What's Changed

• pmn: hotfix to tmin_selectable by @mathomp4 in #24

Full Changelog: v1.5.0...v1.5.1

User-selectable T_MIN_OK for RRTMGP

This release of GEOSradiation_GridComp allows the user selectable leniency of minimum temperature for LUT violation with RRTMGP. It is controlled by the following settings in AGCM.rc:

RRTMGP_LW_TMIN_INC_OK_K: 
RRTMGP_SW_TMIN_INC_OK_K: 

The default for both is 10.0 Kelvin (which was the hard coded value before).

This change is non-zero-diff, but only if you are running RRTMGP, so it should not change results as RRTMG is still the default radiation scheme.

---

What's Changed

• Update CI to use Orb Baselibs by @mathomp4 in #19
• pmn: use selectable tmin_OK by @dr0cloud in #21
• GitFlow: Merge Develop into Main for a release by @mathomp4 in #22

Full Changelog: v1.4.0...v1.5.0

Updates for RRTMGP v1.6

Various changes to merge in v1.6 RRTMGP and upgrade the structure of the radiation codes:

• Update @GEOSradiation_GC to run with RRTMGP v1.6.
• RRTMGP now has a generalized maximum-random overlap option (the default) with cloud condensate inhomogeneity making it consistent with RRTMG (i.e., Oreopoulous et al., 2012)
• Make type of sub-gridscale condensate inhomogeneity selectable at runtime.
• Update condensate inhomogeneity system to be more lightweight.
• Add internal RRTMG timing for cost analysis
• various and significant structural (readability, speed, current practise, etc.), commenting, and cosmetic improvements.
• In particular, a number of REFRESH-timed EXPORTS are now handled implicitly via the FRIENDLYTO mechanism for INTERNALs. The INTERNAL state of SOLAR now has COSZSW, CLDxxSW, and TAUxxPAR added to it.
• effective radii used in RRTMGP are clipped to limits for RRTMGP lookup tables.

Changes are zero-diff for RRTMG runs except for nine extra 2D fields added to solar internal state.

Note: To run with RRTMGP v1.6 requires:

• GEOS-ESM/GEOSgcm_App#446
• RRTMGP geos/v1.6+1.1.0 (https://github.com/GEOS-ESM/rte-rrtmgp/releases/tag/geos%2Fv1.6%2B1.1.0)

v1.3.0

This release of GEOSradiation_GridComp has updates from @wmputman from his refactored physics. This is non-zero-diff to v1.2.0

• pmn: added vrtqdr code explanations, 0-diff by @dr0cloud in #14
• Merging refactored physics code into develop by @sdrabenh in #15
• GitFlow: Merge Develop into Main for release by @mathomp4 in #16

Full Changelog: v1.2.0...v1.3.0

v1.2.0

This release of GEOSradiation_GridComp extends the work from v1.1.0 that enabled production of OBIO surface solar downwelling direct and diffuse fluxes on OBIO bands. The previous release worked for RRTMG only. This release expands the facility to all three radiation codes.

It is activated by putting SOLAR_TO_OBIO: .TRUE. in AGCM.rc and then associating the solar export fields DROBIO and DFOBIO either by exporting them in history or adding future connectivity to the OradBioGC. It is off by default and therefore zero-diff. Even if it is on, it is effectively zero-diff ... it only potentially produces two currently unused new exports, now for RRTMGP and Chou-Suarez as well as for RRTMG (see #3).

• Pull main into develop by @mathomp4 in #6
• Fixes #7. De-GPU Chou-Suarez by @mathomp4 in #8
• Move to use GitHub Action for Label Enforcement by @mathomp4 in #11
• Feature/pnorris/#9 add obio exports for chou suarez as well by @dr0cloud in #10
