− | Right now, ALK4 (via R4O2) produces 4.26 moles carbon products per reaction. The ALK4 representation can be traced back to a paper by Frederick Lurmann. That paper refers to a report that I have been unable to obtain. In fact, Frederick Lurmann no longer has a copy. When we spoke, however, he confirmed my suspicion that ALK4 is based on a 70% butane and 30% pentane mixture. Our 4.26 carbon product appears to be based on two differences (typos?) from the paper that alter the yields.

| | | |
− | If ALK4 emissions are introduced using a 4C assumption, then ALK4 chemistry is acting as a 7% carbon source. From a ozone reactivity standpoint, this is not a major issue. First, the speciation of VOC is highly uncertain and most of the atmosphere is NOx-limited. Even so, it represents another reason to revisit our lumped species.

To the best of my knowledge, we need to make three modifications to R4O2 + NO. The first two are to make R4O2 correctly linked to Lurmann and the third is to correctly connect the mass emissions with the molar conservation.

Right now, it looks like there were a couple changes that could have been inadvertent (i.e., 0.18 instead of 0.19).

− | == Issues that have been since rendered obsolete by newer code updates ==
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Most of the issues described below pertained to the SMVGEAR chemical solver (which was replaced by FlexChem in [[GEOS-Chem v11-01|v11-01]]) and/or the FAST-J photolysis mechanism (which was replaced by FAST-JX in [[GEOS-Chem v10-01|v10-01]]).

| + | |
− | | + | |
− | In <tt>calcrate.F</tt>, we have:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | ! Nitrate effect; reduce the gamma on nitrate by a
| + | |
− | ! factor of 10 (lzh, 10/25/2011)

| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Here NIT is added to SO4 but NIT is in different units than SO4. This unit difference can be traced to the definition of IDTRMB, which is only nonzero for species that are in the SMVGEAR mechanism. Since NIT is not a SMVGEAR species, IDTRMB = 0 for NIT and it is therefore skipped in the unit conversion from kg --> molec/cm3 in <tt>partition.F</tt>.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | This issue was discovered during the implementation of [[FlexChem]]. In [[GEOS-Chem v11-01#v11-01g|GEOS-Chem v11-01g]] and later versions, units of NIT are properly accounted for in routine <tt>HETN2O5</tt> (found in <tt>gckpp_HetRates.F90</tt>).

− | | + | |
− | This is based on Jimenez et al. (Quantum yields of OH, HO2 and NO3 in the UV photolysis of HO2NO2, PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY CHEMICAL PHYSICS, 2005) shows that HO2 yield should be 0.95 and OH yield should be 0.05 for wavelength above 290nm.

− | [mailto:paulot@caltech.edu Fabien Paulot] found a problem in current chemistry scheme. In [[GEOS-Chem v8-02-01]] and beyond, isoprene nitrates are produced twice: one through channel A and one through 10% loss in channel B. This makes the loss of NOx larger than it should be (18.7% vs. 10%) and also reduces the yield of MVK/MACR/CH2O by about 13%.

− | A bug in routine ARSL1K became problematic in the implementation of Justin Parrella's [[Bromine_chemistry_mechanism|tropospheric bromine chemistry mechanism]] for [[GEOS-Chem v9-01-03]]. In the bromine chemistry mechanism, a sticking coefficient of 0.0 is passed to the routine ARSL1K for non-sulfate, non-sea salt aerosol. The IF statement modified in [[GEOS-Chem_v8-02-04#Div-by-zero_error_encountered_in_arsl1k.f|GEOS-Chem v8-02-04]] resulted in the reaction rate being set to the default value of 1.0d-3. A 1-month benchmark for July 2005 indicated that the simulated BrO was a little more than twice the expected zonal mean. Modifying the default value from 1.0d-3 to 1.0d-30 resulted in reasonable simulated BrO values.

There are 5127 time and space points where the model traps the problem and invokes the 1e-3 or 1e-30 value.

I discussed it with Michael Long and we both think that KPP has most of the capability for atom conservation (if not all). It may simply be a matter of defining the chemical formulas in the *.spc file.</blockquote> |
