Revision as of 19:13, 13 November 2020

Here we have posted links to a separate wiki page describing each GEOS-Chem model version.

GEOS-Chem development history

In the table below, we list information about current and past GEOS-Chem releases. For information about upcoming releases, please visit our GEOS-Chem model development priorities wiki page.

Some notes for the tables below:

  • Information about benchmarks can be found by following the links in the "Benchmarks" column
  • GCC = GEOS-Chem "Classic" (uses OpenMP parallelization single node only)
  • GCHP = GEOS-Chem High Performance (uses MPI parallelization across multiple nodes)
  • DOI = digital object identifier, can be used to reference individual GEOS-Chem versions in publications

GEOS-Chem 13 release series

Mean OH from GEOS-Chem 1-year benchmark simulations

Here is a plot of the mean OH concentration from GEOS-Chem 1-year benchmark simulations through version 12.8.0 (released 04 May 2020). The mean OH is an indicator how the chemistry mechanism is performing. Typical values are 10–12 x 105 molecules cm-1.
