Revision as of 18:33, 17 March 2015

GFED4 is slated to be available as an biomass burning emissions option very soon. More information to follow shortly.

Source code and data

GFED4 was implemented into GEOS-Chem v10-01 as an extension of the HEMCO emissions component. The source code files may be found at:

File Description
HEMCO/Extensions/hcox_gfed_mod.F90 Module for computing GFED4 biomass emissions
HEMCO/Extensions/hcox_gfed_include.H Emission factors for GFED4 species (inlined for computational efficiency)


We have created new GFED4 data files (in COARDS-compliant netCDF format) for use with HEMCO. These new data files are contained in the HEMCO data directory tree. For detailed instructions on how to download these data files to your disk server, please see our Downloading the HEMCO data directories wiki post.
