-> update on the self_shade issue: doesn't look like running with the old self_shade mod but without [=HadOCC=] (e.g. xcpsb) has any significant effect on the climate. One test run did show a small coupling shock at going from the broken->fixed parameterisation, but there was very little difference once the climate had settled down.
-> an interesting development in timestepping. Ron Kahana at Bristol has been running with two dynamic sweeps per timesteps in the atmosphere to help with stability. I've done some tests, and it turns out that this significantly affects the mean climate, cooling the tropics and warming the poles. It's not really clear yet why. If used with the re-tuned ice albedoes of xcpsb and later, this gives you a rather large warm bias over the Arctic, compared to xcpsb/xdbua. Used with the original ice albedo values though, two sweeps seems to bring surface temperatures closer to those in [=HadCM3=], and also improves northern hemisphere seasonality.
-> I'm continuing tests with lower isopycnal diffusion in the ocean, along with free-drifting ice. These two seem to help the Southern Ocean warm bias and increase AABW. The grand plan now is to (manually) tune the sea-ice again using these, along with the snow_on_ice bugfix (see July), and 2 dynamic sweeps in the atmosphere for a hopefully even better FAMOUS.
-> yes, it's ''another'' '''BUG WARNING'''. MOSES1 [=FAMOUSes=], up to and including xcpsa and xdbub, appear to have their grid box mean surface sensible heat and moisture fluxes swapped for ocean and coastal points at the end of SFFLUX5A.F. Surface climate affects appear to be pretty small, patches of cooling of around a degree in the northern hemisphere in winter. I've a new version of the coastal tiling mod ctile_09_new_param, that will be included in future releases, but I'm not planning to backdate it. As for the ancil bug below (see November), this isn't an issue in MOSES2.

-> I've been looking up the whole "two dynamic sweeps per timestep" thing. It does definitely up the midlatitude EKE and increase the atmospheric heat transport - not entirely surprising, but it's nice to know there's some physics going on, rather than bad numerics.
