Icepack version 1.3.4 is being released with CICE6.4.2. This is a minor release update from the Icepack1.3.3 release from December, 2022. This update includes several bug fixes including in snow physics, FSD lateral melt, and treatment of thin ice/snow enthalpy. It also includes improvements to the treatment of optional arguments in the public interfaces, capability for netcdf restart files, and other enhancements.

Bug fixes

  • Correct thin ice/snow treatment of enthalpy and other tracers. #454. This changes answers in CICE (QC passes) but not Icepack
  • Fix ice area inconsistency under convergence in single column mode #433. This changes answers in standalone Icepack but not in CICE.
  • Fix bug in snow sublimation in icepack_therm_vertical #428. Fix bug in smicen and smliqn calculation in thermo_vertical #449. This changes answers for snwgrain configurations.
  • Update the FSD lateral heat flux computation and fix bug in the welding scheme. #424 #435 This changes answers for FSD configurations.
  • Fix bug in history file output related to FSD. #421. This does not change model results.
  • Fix bug in start time for netCDF history output #426. This does not change model results.
  • Update hsn_new(1) computation in snow_redist. This does not change model results.

Enhancements

  • Update snow physics logic control #449
  • Refactor implementation of optional arguments for isotopes, snwgrain, therm1 and therm2 as well as some optional outputs in Icepack public interfaces #423, #429. Update FSD arguments, convert them to optional #440. Clean up optional argument attributes and update optional argument documentation #443.
  • Add icepack_chkoptargflag function #423, #434
  • Add support for netCDF restart files, update history and restart format control #427
  • Deprecate zsalinity #448
  • Remove ridging iteration log output #445, #446
  • Check allocation of snow aging tables better #428
  • Clean up some intent statements, clean up public interface declarations #429
  • Shift a few left-over print statements to use the icepack warning infrastructure #424
  • Add support for netCDF with conda_linux #425
  • Update icepack_write_parameters and add call in Icepack #436
  • Update ports to Onyx, Derecho, Cheyenne, Chicoma #442, #449, #456

Documentation

  • Update version, License, Copyright date #457
  • Explicitly turn on pdf generation in readthedocs #438
  • Updates needed for compatibility with changes in readthedocs #432
  • Update documentation #427, #429, #433, #435, #437, #440, #443, #448, #457
