Description

This bugfix release addresses several issues in the MPAS-Atmosphere model and in the MPAS infrastructure. Notable changes include:

  • Improved detection of an 'mpi_f08' module (PR #1202), as well as improved detection of netCDF and PnetCDF library paths (PR #1203), in the top-level Makefile.

  • The addition of a missing dependency in the physics Makefile to correct parallel build issues (PR #1204).

  • Fixes to the CMake build files used by MPAS-JEDI (PR #1205).

  • Fixes to double-precision builds of MPAS-Atmosphere (PR #1207, PR #1208).

  • Correction of the calculation of height AGL used in the computation of 1-km radar reflectivity fields (PR #1213).

  • Correction of an issue that prevented the MYNN PBL scheme from being used without also using the Thompson aerosol-aware microphysics (PR #1215).

  • Fixes to allow MPAS-Atmosphere to be built without physics (i.e., dynamics- only builds) (PR #1221).

  • Various code cleanup and minor corrections (PR #1206, PR #1212, PR #1224, PR #1226).

Acknowledgements: Thanks to Michael Toy (NOAA GSL) for first identifying the error in the calculation of the height AGL array that affect the 1 km radar reflectivity fields.
