Change log

This patch release includes updates r6396:6456.

These updates consist of:

• Open the "Diagnostic output file:" at the top of LIS_readConfig

• Add Hiroko Beaudoing's GDAS reader fix

  Grid size for GDAS T170 resolution is currently at 0.7025 degree in get_gdas.F90. They should be:

  gridDesci(8) = -0.703125
  gridDesci(9) = 0.703125
  

• Add Hiroko Beaudoing's Princeton reader fix

  There was a mix up in the forcing index in Princeton data reader. It’s interpolating pressure field with the conserve routine instead of precip.

• Made first set of corrections to the LDT-generated metforcing reader ("metForcGenerated"), which includes:

  1. A fix for now to include forcing timesteps at a day or greater;
  2. corrected the naming of "sum" to "acc" statistic for the time interpolation routine.

  More updates coming but this fixes some current issues with this reader for now.

• Manually copy GPM/IMERG precipitation reader from 7/devlopment into 7/public7.1

• Manually copy UCSB CHIRPS v2.0 metforcing reader from 7/devlopment into 7/public7.1

• Correction for running LIS serially (without MPI)

• Update RELEASE_NOTES for LIS 7.1rp1 public release
