Hello Team-Hg

Code
Here's the list of things I *think* we came up with on Friday regarding cleaning up the code (feel free to add/comment)
1) Standardize the solver. Everyone should use the solver Chris developed for the Hg chemistry(located at ~cdh/GC/RevisedChem.v7-04-06/mercury_mod.f)
- outstanding issue - dry dep of Hg0* <- currently working on this (eds)
2) Catalog all emissions options and develop clear flagging system to choose your own adventure. This will include:
- different anthropogenic emissions scenarios/corrections (i.e Jaffe vs. Streets) <- going to work on the anthro emissions soon (eds),
- different land emissions. <- nvd will work on this
3) Diagnostics. See separate section below.
4) Comment everything in the code. Remove old bits of code that are hanging around & commented out.
5) GEOS-5
6) Get the land stuff out of ocean_mercury_mod.f and into it's own module <- nvd will work on this
Chemistry 'issues'
1) Oxidant. Chris has a simulation with Hg-Br chemistry and SS aerosol deposition; the global budget is ok, but the Br concentrations in the BL are too low to generate diurnal cycles. (cdh working on it)
2) Snow/ice scavenging of HgII
3) Dry deposition of "aqueous HgII. (Explanation from Chris: We calculate the fraction of HgII, Fg, which is gas phase. But we're currently applying the dry deposition velocity to both gas and aqueous fractions. I think it would be better to deposit the aqueous fraction at the velocity of HgP; this would be slower dep, but I don't know how much. This is definitely up for discussion.)
Diagnostics
Here are some suggested changes:
- Emissions should have units 'kg/m2/s' or something of the form 'mass/area/time' (they are currently 'kg'). The HG-SRCE diagnostic currently has all of the Ocean tracers and fluxes; these should go elsewhere.
- The Ocean Hg0, Hg2, HgC should have concentration units not kg. Is 'molar' the best choice? Fluxes of these should be in concentration/time, not kg.
- The ocean restart files should have concentration units not kg. They currently use the category 'OCEAN-HG' which would make sense for the ND03 ocean Hg0, Hg2, HgC output too.
- 'PL-HG2-$' doesn't really describe all of the fluxes in our model. There are a lot of diagnostic quantities which are either chemical P/L fluxes or rate constants. I think these should all be in one diagnostic called something like 'PL-HG-$' (or maybe 'PL-HG-A', 'PL-HG-O' to separate the atmosphere and ocean). The fluxes in this diagnostic would include redox in air and water, colloidal sinking, ocean-atmosphere piston velocity, ...
Here are the current GEOS-Chem Hg outputs

I think we should change lines 8-24 (I've kept the same line numbers and TRCNAME, but changed CATEGORY, TRC, or UNIT):
CATEGORY TRCNAME TRC UNIT 8 : HG-SRCE Hg0_an 34001 kg/m2/s 10 : HG-SRCE Hg0_oc 34002 kg/m2/s 11 : HG-SRCE Hg0_ln 34003 kg/m2/s 12 : HG-SRCE Hg0_na 34004 kg/m2/s 13 : HG-SRCE Hg2_an 34005 kg/m2/s 16 : HG-SRCE HgP_an 34006 kg/m2/s 9 : OCEAN-HG Hg0_aq xxxx1 mol/L 14 : OCEAN-HG Hg2_aq xxxx2 mol/L 18 : OCEAN-HG HgC xxxx3 mol/L 20 : PL-HG-A Hg2_Hg0 35001 kg/m3/s 21 : PL-HG-A Hg2_OH 35002 kg/m3/s 22 : PL-HG-A Hg2_O3 35003 kg/m3/s 23 : PL-HG-A Hg2_SS 35004 kg/m3/s 24 : PL-HG-A Hg2_SSR 35005 /s 15 : PL-HG-O Hg2_sk xxxx1 kg/m3/s 19 : PL-HG-O Hg_to_C xxxx2 kg/m3/s 17 : PL-HG-O KwHg xxxx3 cm/h
The only thing I have to add is that at first I didn't realize that wet deposition of Hg(II) was composed of both WETDCV and WETDLS. Is it important to save those components out as 2 separate parts? (nvd)
