GEOS-ESM/MAPL: MAPL 2.63.0

This release of MAPL 2 has many new updates and fixes.

The main updates are to handling of Tile grids for use in GEOSldas. There are also updates to the ACG Writer for our ongoing transition to MAPL3 as well as many internal changes to the CI.

All testing with GEOSgcm shows this to be zero-diff to MAPL 2.62

This version of MAPL was tested with:

• Intel Fortran Classic (ifort) 2021.6.0 and 2021.13
• Intel Fortran (ifx) 2025.3
• GCC 13.2.0, 14.2.0, and 15.2.0
• NAG 7.2

The libraries this version of MAPL is currently tested with are below.

• Baselibs 8.20.0
  • netcdf-c 4.9.2
  • netcdf-fortran 4.6.1
  • ESMF 9.0.0b03 (Note: MAPL only requires 8.6.1 at the moment)
  • GFE 1.20.0
    • gFTL 1.16.0
    • gFTL-shared 1.11.0
    • pFUnit 4.13.0 (optional)
    • fArgParse 1.10.0 (if -DBUILD_WITH_FARGPARSE=YES, default=YES)
    • pFlogger 1.17.0 (if -DBUILD_WITH_PFLOGGER=YES, default=YES)
  • UDUNITS2 2.28.8

Also, if you build with Baselibs and/or -DUSE_F2PY=ON, you should use (at least):

• ESMA_cmake v3.68.0

We recommend most external users set -DUSE_F2PY=OFF

We also require CMake 3.24 or higher.
