Updates 2021-07-21

Zero-diff to previous release: MOSTLY

Restart Changes: NO

Potential Non-0-diff Change:

1. Upgrade to MAPL v2.8.0. For the MERRA2 GOCART Emissions, all testing shows it is zero-diff. But for the Ops GOCART Emissions, it there are very small roundoff differences. The results are non-zero-diff due to a bug fix (to a race condition) in this version of MAPL on how grids are handled.

Major 0-diff Changes:

1. Detect MERRA2OX date violation during setup.
2. Make species consistent with emissions choice.
3. Only allow Rome nodes at NAS if built on Rome.
4. Updates for MVAPICH2, enable multigroup by default.
5. Bugfix for correct day when running EMIPs.
6. Update ldas increment alarm setting in CatchGC.
7. Updates to plots package.
8. Update to fvdycore v1.1.7.

Updates 2021-06-14

Zero-diff to previous release: YES

Restart Changes: NO

Major changes include:

1. Upgrade to Baselibs 6.2.4 and cmake v3.5.0.
2. Update parallel_build to use GMAO_Shared main if develop.
3. Created a new grid comp GEOS_SeaiceGridComp as a top level container component serving sea ice sub-components to OGCM. This new structure mirrors the existing GuestOcean/MOMPlug relationship for the ocean model hierarchy.
4. Bug fix that makes sure that diagnostics CNV_MFC still works when the UW shallow convection code is disabled.
5. Add changes consistent with what is in GEOSadas 5.28.
6. Addition of variables for analysis in two RC files and correction in IAU reftime consistent with GEOSadas.

Zero-diff to previous release: YES

Restart Changes: NO

History Changes: YES

Major changes include:

1. Upgrade to MAPL v2.7.0 which changes how programs set up command line options.

3. Clean up of land-related, hard-wired MAPL_GetResource() defaults for consistency with GEOS_SurfaceGridComp.rc, GEOSgcm, and GEOSgcm_App using NRv7.2 as the default land. Additionally, enable GEOSgcm to output the configuration values in GEOS_SurfaceGridComp.rc.
4. Fixes a bug in the export of SSKINW (an internal state of Openwater) that was being filled incorrectly leading to MAPL_UNDEF. Now there are actual values.
5. Merged changes present in GEOSadas-5_27_1_p3 that never made it into the GIT repo: revised stochastic perturbation tendency exports.
6. A bug fix to prevent a seg-fault during the calculation of the GEOS-Chem lightning flash rate due to an array size mismatch.
7. Add ability to write out energy components to file.
8. Update gitignore for mepo updates.
9. Follow MAPL's change to add a new MAPL_CapOptions constructor.
