#782 | Done | VERY IMPORTANT: Time units attribute in NetCDF files | ||
Description |
This change is a significant improvement, and I recommend users to update their code if have a version newer than Jun 21, 2018. In update src:ticket:771, I made changes on how the reference time is processed in ROMS. The time attribute in input NetCDF is essential in the processing of external data. It usually has the form of: 'time-units since YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss' 'time-units since YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss.s' 'time-units since YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss.ss' But the several variants that are still CF compliant. For example, one can have: 'days since 1900-01-01 00:00:00' 'seconds since 1968-05-23 12:00:00 -6' 'years since -4713-11-24 00:00:00' (Nov 24, 4713 BC) 'hours since 1990-1-1 0:0:0' 'days since 1582-10-15 00:00:0.000Z' 'days since 1-1-1 0:0:0' 'hours since 2010-12-1 12:5:30.5' 'days since 1900/01/01 00:00:00' 'seconds since 1960-1-1' 'days since 1-07-15 0:0:0' 'days since 0000-01-01 0:0:0' As you can see, people creating NetCDF files are not consistent in the format for YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss. Therefore, I added a generic routine time_units to the module dateclock.F. I am using the ASCII character set to decode the time units attribute string and replace unneeded characters with a blank space, CHAR(32). Only the following characters are retained: ! Char Dec Control Action ! ------------------------------ ! SP 32 Space ! + 43 Plus ! - 45 Hyphen, dash, minus ! . 46 Period ! 0 48 Zero ! 1 49 One ! 2 50 Two ! 3 51 Three ! 4 52 Four ! 5 53 Five ! 6 54 Six ! 7 55 Seven ! 8 56 Eight ! 9 57 Nine ! DO i=1,lstr Schar=ICHAR(Tstring(i:i)) IF (.not.(((48.le.Schar).and.(Schar.le.57)).or. & & (Schar.eq.32).or.(Schar.eq.46))) THEN Tstring(i:i)=CHAR(32) ! blank space END IF END DO Tstring=ADJUSTL(TRIM(Tstring)) lstr=LEN_TRIM(Tstring) Then, every numerical value in the string is converted to a real variable to allow floating-point values for seconds. The year, month, day, hour, and minutes are output as integers. Many thanks to John Wilkin for bringing this issue to my attention. If the time attribute in your input file is not in the form of time-units since YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss, you will get an error when calling function netcdf_get_time. I also updated function decode_line in inp_par.F to remove control-keys introduced when generating or editing input script ocean.in. It now checks and replaces ASCII characters CHAR(0) to CHAR(31) with a blank space: ! Char Dec Key Control Action ! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ! NUL 0 ^@ Null character ! SOH 1 ^A Start of heading, = console interrupt ! STX 2 ^B Start of text, maintenance mode on HP console ! ETX 3 ^C End of text !

#783 | Done | VERY IMPORTANT: ROMS Dynamic, Automatic, and Static Memory Requirements | ||
Description |
Currently, ROMS uses primarily dynamic and automatic memory which is allocated at running time. It uses small static memory allocation at compile time. The dynamical memory is that associated with the ocean state arrays, and it is allocated at runtime, and it is persistent until the ROMS termination of the execution. The automatic arrays appear in subroutines and functions for temporary local computations. They are created on entry to the subroutine for intermediate computations and disappear on exit. The automatic arrays (meaning non-static) are either allocated on heap or stack memory. If using the ifort compiler, the option -heap-arrays directs the compiler to put automatic arrays on the heap instead of the stack. However, it may affect performance by slowing down the computations. If using stack memory, the application needs to have enough to avoid weird segmentation faults during execution. In Linux operating systems, unlimited stack memory is possible by setting: ulimit -s unlimited in your .bashrc limit stacksize unlimited in your .cshrc, .tcshrc The static arrays are allocated at compilation time and the memory reserved can be neither increased or decreased. Only a few static arrays are used in ROMS and mainly needed for I/O processing in the mod_netcdf routines. In serial and shared-memory (OpenMP) applications, the dynamic memory associated with the ocean state is for full, global variables. Contrarily, in distributed-memory (MPI) applications, the dynamical memory related to the ocean state is for the smaller tiled arrays with global indices. Recall that the tiling in only done in the horizontal I- and J-dimensions and not in the vertical dimension. Mostly all the ocean state arrays are dereferenced pointers and are allocated after processing ROMS standard input parameters. Recall that arrays represent a continuous linear sequence of memory. The pointer indicates the beginning of the state variable in the memory block. ROMS is updated to compute an estimate of the dynamic and automatic memory requirements needed to run an application. The automatic memory is difficult to estimate since it is volatile. The maximum automatic memory is computed by looking at step2d.F, step3d_t.F, and I/O routines. Check mod_arrays.F to see how it is done. Also, information is provided in ROMS/memory.txt. We can use the memory requirements to optimize partitions in parallel computers by examining the memory available for each Persistent Execution Thread (PET) or CPU. We need to make sure that the memory required by each distributed-memory tile fits on the PET to accelerate computations and optimize the computer resources. The memory requirements are written to the standard output file after the activated CPP options report. For example, for three grids nested application on four distributed-memory PETs, we get: Process Information: Node # 0 (pid= 7420) is active. Node # 3 (pid= 7423) is active. Node # 1 (pid= 7421) is active. Node # 2 (pid= 7422) is active. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dynamic and Automatic memory (MB) usage for Grid 01: 240x104x40 tiling: 2x2 tile Dynamic Automatic USAGE 0 145.33 16.94 162.27 1 146.47 16.94 163.42 2 147.88 16.94 164.83 3 149.05 16.94 165.99 SUM 588.73 67.78 656.51 Dynamic and Automatic memory (MB) usage for Grid 02: 204x216x40 tiling: 2x2 tile Dynamic Automatic USAGE 0 217.32 29.46 246.78 1 215.32 29.46 244.78 2 215.43 29.46 244.89 3 213.45 29.46 242.91 SUM 861.52 117.84 979.36 Dynamic and Automatic memory (MB) usage for Grid 03: 276x252x40 tiling: 2x2 tile Dynamic Automatic USAGE 0 334.33 46.32 380.66 1 332.02 46.32 378.34 2 331.81 46.32 378.13 3 329.51 46.32 375.83 SUM 1327.67 185.29 1512.95 TOTAL 2777.92 370.90 3148.82 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Notice that the information is provided in decimal megabytes (MB) for each PET (tile).
