The MercuryChem collection

NOTE: This collection has not yet been validated and should be considered experimental.

The 'MercuryChem collection contains concentrations and prod/loss diagnostic outputs for the Hg specialty simulationl

Here is a sample definition section for the MercuryEmis collection.

  • If this collection is not already present in the HISTORY.rc file in the GEOS-Chem run directory for your selected simulation, you can copy and paste this into your HISTORY.rc file and edit accordingly.
  • To prevent an individual field from being included in the diagnostic output, place a comment character # in front of the field name.
  • Please see our Legend for History diagnostics page for more information about each of the collection tags.
