Physics update in cumulus convection, PBL & surface layer for UFS_P7; update compiler versions on Cheyenne

[JongilHan66]

Cumulus convection:
a) More strict convection trigger
b) Reduced entrainment rate below cloud base
c) Enhanced downdraft detrainments starting from 60mb above the ground surface
d) Reduced rain evaporation
e) Modification of cloud depth separating shallow convection from deep convection

PBL and surface layer:
a) Inclusion of wind shear effect reducing characteristic mixing length
b) Reduction of background diffusivity in the inversion layers as a function of surface roughness and green vegetation fraction
c) PBL updraft overshooting limited by bulk Richardson number-based-PBL depth
d) Inclusion of new canopy heat storage parameterization
e) Modification of thermal roughness calculation over land
f) Increase of momentum roughness length over sea
g) Inclusion of sea spray effect parameterization

The verification results for the physics updates above can be found in https://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/gmb/jhan/vsdbw/ccaa14
More detailed description for the updates and ccaa14 results are given in the attached ppt file.

Verification results for additional physics updates are in:

1. Increased sea spray effects: https://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/gmb/jhan/vsdbw/ccaa27
2. Inclusion of new maximum z/L parameterization in the GFS surface layer scheme:
   Winter: https://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/gmb/jhan/vsdbw/ccaa41
   Summer: https://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/gmb/jhan/vsdbw/ccaa41x

The final update is based on 'ccaa41'.

Description for the new maximum z/L parameterization can be found in the attached ppt file.

The control_2threads was a timeout. Went past 15 minutes wall clock.

@JongilHan66 Have you completed the hera.intel RT?

@JongilHan66 Have you completed the hera.intel RT?

It failed due to time limit in compile_002. Since it passed when creating the new baselines, I've just re-submitted the RT run against the new baselines.

The compile_002 which was the only problem in the hera.intel RT has just passed in re-submission.

Copy the log file of the one test that passed into the end of the log file with the one test failed and commit it. So we have a record that all tests passed on Hera.intel

Unfortunately, the previous log file was deleted and so I have to wait for the new log file until all the RT runs are completed.

Need to wait for hera.intel RT to pass, otherwise looks good. Thanks for including the CHeyenne Intel and GNU compiler updates. Good to see the model being tested with Intel 2021.2 and GNU 10.1.

Regression testing on hera.intel

@JongilHan66 ran rt.sh on hera.intel. All tests except compile_2 and the associated tests cpld_bmark_wave_v16, cpld_bmark_wave_v16_noahmp, cpld_control_wave passed. The compile_2 test timed out, and the three tests using the executable didn't run.

The regression test log from @JongilHan66 got deleted.

@climbfuji reran compile_2 and the three tests mentioned above, and they all passed. Attached the log file for those runs.
