List of GEOS-Chem configuration files
This page describes the configuration files that are read by GEOS-Chem. Several configuration files are automaticaly added to a GEOS-Chem run directory when it is created. Other configuration files are located in the source code or in the GEOS-Chem data directories. The configuration files contain "out-of-the-box" default settings for each type of GEOS-Chem simulation. But you can edit these files to customize your GEOS-Chem simulation with different options.
User-editable configuration files
These configuration files that specify user inputs are located in each GEOS-Chem run directory.
You can edit any of the default settings in these files to change the options that will be used in your GEOS-Chem simulation.
| File | Description | Also see |
|---|---|---|
| input.geos | File containing all GEOS-Chem user options, such as:
|
NOTE: input.geos has been migrated to a YAML format configuration file named geoschem_config.yml in GEOS-Chem 14.0.0 and later versions. |
| geoschem_config.yml | Main GEOS-Chem configuration file (replacing input.geos) in GEOS-Chem 14.0.0 and later versions | geos-chem.readthedocs.io |
| HEMCO_Config.rc | Specifies emission inventories (as well as other data sources) that you want to read into in GEOS-Chem via the Harmonized Emisions Component (HEMCO). | hemco.readthedocs.io |
| HEMCO_Diagn.rc | Specifies diagnostic archival options for emissions and related quantities computed by the Harmonized Emisions Component (HEMCO). | hemco.readthedocs.io |
| HISTORY.rc | Specifies which GEOS-Chem diagnostics will be archived to netCDF output (for both GEOS-Chem "Classic" and GCHP modes) | Guide to GEOS-Chem History diagnostics |
