General

Historical Overview

Original work on the adjoint of GEOS-Chem began in 2003, focusing on the adjoint of the offline aerosol simulation. By 2005, the adjoint was expanded to include a tagged CO simulation and a full chemistry simulation as well as observational operators for MOPITT (CO) and IMPROVE network (aerosols). The adjoint code has been constructed in a hybrid fashion using a combination of automatic differentiation software (TAMC, KPP) and manual coding of both discrete and continuous adjoints. Current development aims to standardize the implementation of the adjoint model and make it more user friendly, with the eventual goal of making the adjoint publicly available as part of the standard GEOS-Chem code base.

Current Activities

  • streamlining GEOS4 adjoint transport among the three code branches, some bug fixes to be implemented

Get Involved

Support and development of the GEOS-Chem adjoint has clearly become a multifaceted undertaking. In attempt to focus such developments, we've created a GC-adjoint mailing list. If you wish to become involved, you should add yourself to this list by sending an email to geos-chem-adjoint-requests@geos.as.harvard.edu with the word subscribe in the subject or body.

Kevin Bowman organizes bimonthly conference calls concerning current adjoint model activities.
