== Chemistry updates ==
 
=== Updates to heterogeneous and cloud chemistry ===
<span style="color:green">'''''This update was included in [[GEOS-Chem 12#12.6.0|GEOS-Chem 12.6.0]], which was released on 18 Oct 2019.'''''</span>
 
This combines model updates described by Holmes et al. (2019) and McDuffie et al (2018a, b).
==== Cloud heterogeneous chemistry ====
These changes are described by Holmes et al. (2019). The effective radius and surface area of ice cloud particles have been updated based on aircraft observations (Heymsfield et al., 2014). Entrainment-limited uptake in clouds, as defined by Holmes et al. (2019), is implemented. This method accounts for cloud fraction and entrainment within the chemical loss rates. Losses of NO3 and N2O5 in clouds are currently included and the method and code can also be applied to other species that react in clouds. The changes in the cloud and ice surface areas had significant impact on the cycling of HCl to ClOx species increasing them in the UT.
==== N2O5 uptake on aerosol ====
N2O5 uptake on sulfate-nitrate-ammonium-organic aerosol is calculated with gamma for combined SNA+ORG aerosol in in which a SNA core is coated with an organic shell (McDuffie et al. 2018b). Parameters in the gamma expression are fitted to aircraft observations. This parameterization generally follows the Bertram and Thornton ACP (2009) functional form for SNA aerosol (excluding chloride enhancement) and treats aerosol organics as a resistive coating. The gamma values of SNA and ORG components are calculated separately and combined  using a resistor model framework: 1/gamma_total = 1/gamma_SNA + 1/gamma_ORG. The ClNO2 yield is currently treated as 1 on sea salt aerosol and 0 on SNA+ORG aerosol. Planned updates to chlorine chemistry will modify the ClNO2 yields in a future model version.
The gamma for N2O5 uptake on other aerosols is updated according to IUPAC and JPL recommendations, as documented by Holmes et al. (2019).
==== NO2 and NO3 uptake on aerosol ====
Gamma parameters are updated according to IUPAC and JPL recommendations, as documented by Holmes et al. (2019). Notable changes compared to prior model versions include reduction of NO2 and NO3 gammas on all aerosol types,
==== Aerosol water content ====
Within the heterogeneous chemistry, we now use the aerosol water content of sulfate-nitrate-ammonium aerosol from the ISORROPIA II aerosol thermodynamics. This water content is then used to infer the volume and surface area of sulfate-nitrate-ammonium for heterogeneous chemistry. The aerosol optics used for FastJ and RRTMG continue to use lookup tables for hygroscopic growth so that the optical properties (phase function, index of refraction) are consistent with the assumptions about aerosol composition and size.
==== Heterogeneous chemistry diagnostics ====
Aerosol water content and N2O5 gamma coefficients are now saved as StateChem variables for diagnostic output through HISTORY.rc

=== Aerosol nitrate photolysis option ===
 
<span style="color:green">'''''This update was included in [[GEOS-Chem 12#12.6.0|GEOS-Chem 12.6.0]], which was released on 18 Oct 2019.'''''</span>
 
'''''Tomas Sherwen wrote:'''''
 
:This update allows for optional photolysis of aerosol nitrate (NIT(s)) yielding HNO2+NO2. '''This set to off as default.''' The photolysis rate is scaled the photolysis rates of HNO3 (JHNO3) as described by Kasibhatla et al (2018). The photolysis rate and product split is set in the input.geos file with the lines as below:
   
    Photolyse nitrate aer.? : F
    => NIT Jscale (JHNO3)  : 0.0
    => NITs Jscale (JHNO3) : 0.0
    => % channel A (HONO)  : 66.667
    => % channel B (NO2)  : 33.333
   
:As the code is off by default no notable changes are expected in the model's output. To reproduce the results of Kasibhatla et al 2018, updates to nitrate partitioning (e.g. from Xuan Wang's chlorine updates) and updates to the heterogeneous uptake and hydrolysis of NO2 need to be included as well.

==== Modifications to the original updates ====
 
The following modifications were made to the original updates listed in the [[Media:NewChemistry 030917.pdf|above document]] following conversations with the developers. These modifications were included in [[GEOS-Chem v11-02#v11-02c|v11-02c]].
 
(1) Restore H2O2 Henry's law constant for wet deposition. Daniel Jacob wrote:
:''For wetdep of H2O2 we should restore the old Henry’s law constant of 8.3E4exp[7400(1/T – 1/298)] because as Dylan points out that’s the physical value. For drydep of H2O2 we can keep the value of 5E7 as parameterized by Nguyen to fit his drydep data.''
 
(2) HC187 is advected
 
(3) The following species have different names from the original document:
:*API is now MTPA (for consistency with [[Secondary_organic_aerosols#Complex_SOA_scheme|existing SOA scheme]])
:*APIO2 is now PIO2 (for consistency with [[PAN|PAN updates]] added in [[GEOS-Chem v11-02#v11-02a|v11-02a]])
:*LIM is now LIMO (for consistency with [[Secondary_organic_aerosols#Complex_SOA_scheme|existing SOA scheme]])
:*PMN is now NPMN and IPMN (PMN from non-isoprene and isoprene sources; from [[Secondary_organic_aerosols#SOA_formation_from_aqueous_isoprene_uptake|aqueous isoprene uptake updates]])
:*ONITAam is now IONITA (Jenny Fisher recommended we change the names - they were originally daytime/nighttime species, but changed to isop/monot)
:*ONITApm is now MONITA (Jenny Fisher recommended we change the names - they were originally daytime/nighttime species, but changed to isop/monot)

=== Stratospheric chemistry ===
 
GEOS-Chem was historically developed as a model of tropospheric chemistry and composition.  The above-mentioned [[#Mechanisms in GEOS-Chem v9-01-03 and prior versions|chemistry mechamisms in GEOS-Chem v9-01-03]] and [[#Mechanisms in GEOS-Chem v9-02 and later versions|in GEOS-Chem v9-02]] only solve the chemical reaction matrix within the troposphere.  In order to prevent tropospheric species from accumulating in the stratosphere and being transported back into the troposphere, we have implemented the following simple stratospheric chemistry schemes:
 
# [[Linoz stratospheric ozone chemistry]]
# [[Stratospheric chemistry|Application of monthly-mean prod/loss rates archived from the GMI model]]
 
Linoz only applied to ozone.  The simple linearized stratospheric chemistry, which uses production and loss rates archived from the GMI model, is applied to all other species.  (NOTE: The user has the option to disable Linoz and use the archived GMI prod/loss rates for ozone, but this is typically not done.)
 
In [[GEOS-Chem v10-01]] we added the [[UCX_chemistry_mechanism|'''Unified tropospheric-stratospheric Chemistry eXtension''' (UCX) mechanism]] into GEOS-Chem. UCX was developed by Seb Eastham and Steven Barrett at the [http://lae.mit.edu MIT Laboratory for Aviation and the Environment]. This mechanism combines the existing GEOS-Chem [[NOx-Ox-HC-aerosol|"NOx-Ox-HC-aerosol" mechanism]] with several new stratospheric species and reactions.

=== Correcting ozone from the height of the lowest model level to 10m ===
 
<span style="color:green">'''''This update was included in [[GEOS-Chem 12#12.6.0|GEOS-Chem 12.6.0]], which was released on 18 Oct 2019.'''''</span>
 
Katie Travis created a diagnostic to correct daytime ozone and HNO3 values from the lowest model layer, ~60m, to a user-defined altitude such as 10m (which corresponds to the height of certain observational instruments at surface stations).  This altitude can be selected in the [[GEOS-Chem input files#Deposition Menu|DEPOSITION MENU of the <tt>input.geos</tt> file]].
 
''C''(''z<sub>C</sub>'') = (1-''R<sub>a</sub>''(''z<sub>1</sub>'',''z<sub>C</sub>'')''v<sub>d</sub>(''z<sub>1</sub>))''C''(''z<sub>1</sub>'')             Eq. 1
 
where <tt>''R<sub>a</sub>''(''z<sub>1</sub>'',''z<sub>C</sub>'')</tt> is the aerodynamic resistance between <tt>''z<sub>1</sub>''</tt> and <tt>''z<sub>C</sub>''</tt>, and <tt>''v<sub>d</sub>''(''z<sub>1</sub>'')</tt> is the ozone deposition velocity at <tt>''z<sub>1</sub>''</tt>, and <tt>''C''(''z<sub>1</sub>'')</tt> is the ozone concentration at <tt>''z<sub>1</sub>''</tt>.
 
<tt>''R<sub>a</sub>''(''z<sub>1</sub>'',''z<sub>C</sub>'')</tt> is calculated to the lowest model level in <tt>GeosCore/drydep_mod.F</tt>. We recalculate <tt>''R<sub>a</sub>''</tt> using <tt>''z<sub>1</sub>''</tt> = user defined height (such as 10m) for ozone.  The new <tt>''R<sub>a</sub>''</tt> is added to the diagnostic array AD_RA and passed to diag49.F for use in Equation 1.
 
This new diagnostic has been implemented in as [[History_collections_for_dry_deposition#The_ConcAboveSfc_collection|the ConcAboveSfc collection]] of the [[Guide to GEOS-Chem History diagnostics|GEOS-Chem History diagnostics]].
 
Here is a sample plot of O3 at the midpoint of the 1st model level (~60m) and O3 at 10m at Centerville, AL (32.94N, 87.18W), as generated with this diagnostic:

=== Process analysis diagnostics ===
 
[http://www.barronh.com/ Barron Henderson] has created a [[Process Analysis Diagnostics|software package for process analysis diagnostics]].  He writes:
 
<blockquote>Process-based Analysis examines the change in each species due to each process and reaction. Models predict atmospheric state, which in a time-series can be used to create net-change of each species. What this cannot tell us, is which processes led to that change. To supplement state (or concentration), GEOS-Chem has long archived emissions and employed advanced diagnostics to predict gross chemical production or loss. Process Analysis goes a step further archiving grid-cell budgets for each species, and decomposing gross production/loss into individual reaction contributions. Process Analysis extensions are currently available in CAMx, WRF-Chem, CMAQ, and now GEOS-Chem. This allows for direct comparisons of models at a fundamental, process level.</blockquote>
