Release v11.3.2 on 2023-10-31

Zero-diff to Previous Release: YES

Restart Changes: NO

Major Zero-Diff Changes:

• Changes were made in this release to accomodate the newly availible SCU17 at NCCS, which introduced two separate operating systems. When running at NCCS, the parallel_build.csh script was changed to append -SLES12 to the build and install directories for Skylake and Cascade Lake nodes running SLES 12. Alternatively, parallel_build.csh -mil can be specified to build on the Milan nodes running SLES 15. In that case, -SLES15 will be appended to the build and install directories to avoid confusion and ensure compatibility with each respective platform. The following changes were made to the repositories to accomodate these updates:
  • ESMA_env v4.20.0 => v4.20.6
  • ESMA_cmake v3.35.0 => v3.36.0
  • MAPL v2.41.1 => v2.42.0
  • GEOSgcm_App v2.2.5 => v2.2.6

Release v11.1.0 on 2023-06-08

Zero-diff to Previous Release: NO

Restart Changes: NO

Major Non-Zero-Diff Changes:

• Bugfix for GOCART: In dust and sea-salt, changed dimensions back to globalCellCountPerDim since these are needed to determine emission tuning parameters, not to allocate arrays. See changes here
• Update to use NRL 2022 Solar Cycle File. Therefore, non-zero-diff results from Y2022 onward. #468
• Updates GEOSgcm to use ESMA_env v4.17.0. This update mainly brings in ESMF v8.5.0b22 which is a non-zero-diff change for GEOSgcm due to precision changes in grid generation. It also brings in many new features for MAPL development.

Major Zero-Diff Changes:

• Updates GEOSgcm to use FVdycoreCubed_GridComp v2.4.4 and GFDL_atmos_cubed_sphere geos/v2.4.1. These updates bring in fixes for the FV3 standalone allowing it to work correctly. The GEOSgcm is zero-diff to these changes.
