On this page we list the current priorities for GEOS-Chem development. This list was compiled by the user Working Groups at the last [http://acmg.seas.harvard.edu/geos/meetings/2017/index.html International GEOS-Chem Meeting (IGC8)] in May 2017 and was updated in May 2018 following the release of v11-02 which included a number of these priorities. This list will be continuously updated based on code readiness and input from the Working Groups and the Steering Committee.

On this page we list the current priorities for GEOS-Chem development. This list is continuously updated based on code readiness and input from the [https://geos-chem.seas.harvard.edu/geos-working-groups Working Groups] and the [https://geos-chem.seas.harvard.edu/geos-steering-cmte Steering Committee]. For history of past releases see the [[GEOS-Chem_versions|'''GEOS-Chem Versions wiki page''']].
  
We also invite you to view our [https://trello.com/board/geos-chem-support-team/4fe36668fc79a1d3540ba80b GEOS-Chem Support Team project management board on Trello.com], which shows the current GCST workflow.

=== Ready to go in ===
+
== Feature integration in progress ==
  
The following updates are now being considered for inclusion into GEOS-Chem.
+
Features listed in this table are actively being integrated into GEOS-Chem by the [https://geoschem.github.io/support-team.html GEOS-Chem Support Team]. In addition, we continuously implement structural updates in the model to maintain and develop coupling with other models including GEOS, CESM, and the model adjoint.

*The script for checking the carbon balance exists and works. Ideally, we would move some of the structures into the KPP files to codify them instead of storing them in the script itself. This would be less than 6 months. [https://www.evernote.com/shard/s315/sh/82219b0a-0031-4f3c-a9ca-401964d3b4c5/7af8ad1c743543fa20bf91201ecab2f0 Click HERE for script]

*The FORTRAN code for implementing NH3 emissions diurnal variability is fairly straightforward.  However, it involves calculation of some quantities that depend upon met fields in the future, and we’re unsure of how to accomplish this in a robust and elegant manner. 
+
 
*In particular, we need to know the aerodynamic resistance and surface temperature at every emission time step over the course of a time period X, where X is the time resolution of the NH3 livestock emissions inventory being used.  This is typically monthly, but I could foresee future inventories having higher resolution, so maybe we want to consider this more generically. 
+
*One approach would be to pre-process this quantity at high resolution for all years, as is currently being done e.g. for dust emissions.  Another would be to add code to read in this information from met files online, but this would add some i/o to the model.

*We are not planning on resuming work to unify units in GEOS-Chem anytime soon. Any changes to units in the near future would be for better compatibility with other models, although none are currently planned. However, user consensus on preferred units would still be helpful to move the conversation forward.
