Revision as of 18:48, 16 August 2019

On this page we list the various diagnostic quantities that you can archive with GEOS-Chem. These diagnostic quantities are archived to "binary punch" (aka bpch) format.

NOTE: The bpch diagnostics will be preserved in GEOS-Chem 12. They will be removed in a future version.

Contents

Overview

The tables below list the following parameters for each diagnostic that is archived to bpch format:

NDxx # The index for each slot of the given "NDxx" bpch diaggnostic.
Dims Diagnostics are usually 2-D or 3-D, with I,J,L for longitude, latitude and level indices.

N as a third or fourth dimension refers to the number of species that a diagnostic can carry.

Description A short overview of the given diagnostic.
Units The physical units of the given diagnostic quantity
Category The 8-character name used by GAMAP to reference a particular diagnostic field. Information about how to set the different flags in the input.geos file can be found in the Diagnostic Menu section of our GEOS-Chem Input Files wiki page.
Simulations A list of simulations for which this particular diagnostic is valid.
netCDF equivalent The name under which the same diagnostic is available as netCDF output (in GEOS-Chem v11-02 and higher). See the List of diagnostics archived to netCDF format wiki page for more information.

You can specify which diagnostic quantities you want to archive by modifying the various menus of the input.geos file, which is contained in your the GEOS-Chem run directory. The relevant menus of input.geos are:

ND01: Rn-Pb-Be sources

3 (I,J,L) 7Be emissions kg/s RN-SRCE Rn-Pb-Be EmisBe_Cosmic Diagnostic is archived by HEMCO. netCDF output goes to the HEMCO_diagnostics*.nc files.

NOTE: The slots of the ND03 diagnostic were updated in GEOS-Chem 12.0.0. The bpch diagnostics are slated for removal in a future version of GEOS-Chem.
