=== Mean OH in GEOS-Chem v7 ===
The following table chronicles the evolution of the mean OH value from several different GEOS-Chem simulations.  All benchmark simulations were conducted at [[GEOS-Chem_horizontal_grids#GMAO_4_x_5_grid|4&deg; x 5&deg; resolution]] unless noted otherwise.

Latest revision as of 14:54, 18 October 2023

On this page we track the evolution of the mean OH concentration in GEOS-Chem. This value is an indicator of how "hot" the chemistry is. Please also see the related topic about the methyl chloroform lifetime in GEOS-Chem.

Evolution of mean OH in GEOS-Chem

Plot of mean OH evolution

Here is a plot of the mean OH concentration from GEOS-Chem 1-year benchmark simulations. The mean OH is an indicator how the chemistry mechanism is performing. Typical values are 10–12 x 105 molecules cm-1.
