The NOx-Ox-hydrocarbon-aerosol (aka "full-chemistry") simulations have undergone several updates in recent GEOS-Chem versions.  We provide a summary of recent updates made to the various mechanisms.

=== Mechanisms in GEOS-Chem v9-01-03 and prior versions ===

In GEOS-Chem v9-01-03, users could select from one of four pre-defined chemistry mechanisms:
