This page includes information about GEOS-Chem 13.2.0 which is currently in development.

Version overview

The following items have been added to GEOS-Chem 13.2.0 since the last benchmark for GEOS-Chem 13.1.0. See also the 13.2.0 milestone on Github.

Feature Contributor(s) Model scope Notes
Updates that will affect full-chemistry simulations
CEDS v2 emissions through 2019 Patrick Campbell (NOAA-ARL)
Melissa Sulprizio (GCST)
Emissions
Updated Yuan/BNU MODIS LAI product (2000-2019) Jenny Fisher (U. Wollongong)
Melissa Sulprizio (GCST)
Emissions
Dry deposition
Improved wet scavenging from Luo et al. (2020) (as option) Gan Luo (Albany)
Fangqun Yu (Albany)
Bob Yantosca (GCST)
Wet deposition
Blowing snow emissions of sea salt and sea salt bromide Lyatt Jaegle (UW)
Lizzie Lundgren (GCST)
Emissions
Bug fixes:
  1. Add carbon to species scale factors to AEIC VOC emissions
  2. Fix molecular weight of ethanol (EOH) in species_database.yml
  3. Fix typo in CloudHet function in gckpp_HetRates.F90
Christoph Keller (GMAO)
Viral Shah (Harvard)
Emissions (1,2)
Chemistry (3)
Updates that will NOT affect full-chemistry simulations
ObsPack pressure units are now in Pa instead of hPa Eloise Marais (Birmingham) Diagnostics
Add lon & lat bounds to GEOS-Chem Classic History output Chris Holmes (FSU) Diagnostics
Trace metal simulation Junwei Xu (Dalhousie)
Bob Yantosca (GCST)
Specialty simulation
  • See geoschem/geos-chem #769
  • Daily data files are very large; we have compressed some.
  • Added trace metal species as a standalone simulation, so as not to burden other simulations with large data I/O
Features only affecting GCHP:
Set lev positive 'up' for all diagnostic files except Emissions Lizzie Lundgren (GCST) Output

New data directories

The following data directories have been added or updated in this version. You will have to download the directories relevant to your simulation.

Inventory Type What was added? Directory
CEDS Default CEDS v2 emissions through 2019 HEMCO/CEDS/v2021-06
Yuan-processed MODIS LAI Default Updated BNU v6/Yuan-processed MODIS LAI product (2000-2020) HEMCO/Yuan_XLAI/v2021-06
TRACE_METALS Optional Canadian (CAC) and US (NATA) emissions (2011-2013) for the trace metals specialty simulation HEMCO/TRACE_METALS/v2021-06
MULTI_ICE Default Multi-year sea ice fraction for blowing snow from sea salt aerosol HEMCO/MULTI_ICE/v2021-07

NOTES:

  • Enable PDF bookmarks in the file links to navigate between species. See the Species in GEOS-Chem wiki page for species definitions and details. If you do not see bookmarks in your browser try using a different browser (not Safari) or installing an Adobe Acrobat plug-in.
  • Species categories and lumped species are defined in YAML files within the GEOS-Chem post-processing software GCPy.

Overview
Below we summarize the notable changes caused by specific updates. Supplementary plots may be viewed at http://ftp.as.harvard.edu/gcgrid/geos-chem/validation/InternalBenchmarks/.

1. CEDS v2 emissions through 2019

2. Updated Yuan/BNU MODIS LAI product (2000-2019)

3. Improved wet scavenging from Luo et al. (2020) (as option)

Some small differences at the level of numerical noise (i.e. differences ~1e-6X or ~1e-7X smaller than values) still occur even when the default wetdep scheme is used. This is because we now better enforce REAL*8 precision by adding _fp or _f8 suffixes to numerical constants where they were lacking in both Luo and default wetdep schemes.
Additional 1-month benchmarks with the Luo et al. (2020) wet deposition scheme were also completed and results of those benchmarks are linked above.

4. Blowing snow emissions of sea salt and sea salt bromide


5. Add carbon to species scale factors to AEIC VOC emissions

The following updates introduced differences on the order of numerical noise:

1-year benchmarks

This version will require 1-year full-chemistry and transport tracer benchmarks, with and without Luo wet deposition.
