The CH4 collection

The CH4 collection contains diagnostics for loss of CH4 and OH concentration for the CH4 specialty simulation.

Here is a sample definition section for the CH4 collection.

  • If this collection is not already present in the HISTORY.rc file in the GEOS-Chem run directory for your selected simulation, you can copy and paste this into your HISTORY.rc file and edit accordingly.
  • To prevent an individual field from being included in the diagnostic output, place a comment character # in front of the field name.
  • Please see our Legend for History diagnostics page for more information about each of the collection tags.
  CH4.template:               '%y4%m2%d2_%h2%n2z.nc4',

This table describes the diagnostic quantities belonging to the CH4 collection:

Diagnostic name Description Units Wildcards Simulations Notes Bpch equiv.
LossCH4byClinTrop Loss of CH4 by reaction with Cl in the troposphere kg/s
  • Added in 12.1.0
LossCH4byOHinTrop Loss of CH4 by reaction with OH in the troposphere kg/s
  • Added in 12.1.0
LossCH4inStrat Loss of CH4 in the stratosphere kg/s
  • Added in 12.1.0
OHconcAfterChem OH concentration after chemistry kg/s

The ConcAfterChem collection

The ConcAfterChem collection is listed on our History collections for chemistry and photolysis page.


The Metrics collection

The Metrics collection is listed on our History collections for chemistry and photolysis page.
