Standard Job Updates
WARNING - PAGE RATHER OUT OF DATE AT THE MOMENT. See FAMOUS Standard Versions for an overview of the current state of play, and diff jobs in the UMUI for the details
There are currently 3 parallel FAMOUS releases:
Generally a new version corresponds to a scientific difference. Any technical changes that are made to the standard job have been logged below. For the scientific differences between jobs see FAMOUS standard versions.

New Ocean User prognostics:
- 403: (option: 3)
- 404: (option: 3)
xcgga
Changes made to xcgga:
- Switched off model mod
meadlengths.mod
, since it causes problems with the halo counting for the MEAD diagnostic outputs. 26/03/07

(Does not affect bit reproducibility if diagnostics turned on.)
- Removed XLFREOPTS=namelist=old:buffering=disable_all from environment variables. This should be for debugging only and may have slowed down the run.

- All PP output files now unpacked. Packing known to be suspicious plus caused strange values of Ocean Temp. 19/10/06

- Produce JOBSHEET. 17/08/06
(Does not affect bit reproducibility.)
- Remove duplicate Ocean velocity diags with time profile TDAYMN from STASH window. 15/08/06
