GEOS-Chem model development priorities: Difference between revisions

Line 1: Line 1:
On this page we list the priorities for ongoing GEOS-Chem model development. We also list the items that were once identified as priorities but have since been added to the standard mainline GEOS-Chem code.
On this page we list the current priorities for GEOS-Chem development. This list is continuously updated based on code readiness and input from the [https://geos-chem.seas.harvard.edu/geos-working-groups Working Groups] and the [https://geos-chem.seas.harvard.edu/geos-steering-cmte Steering Committee]. For history of past releases see the [[GEOS-Chem_versions|'''GEOS-Chem Versions wiki page''']].


== List of priorities as of Oct 2011 ==
== Merged and awaiting release ==


This is list of planned GEOS-Chem model development items updated from the [[GEOS-Chem model development priorities#List of priorities identified at IGC5|List of priorities identified at IGC5]]. The key model developer or model contact is identified for each item.  
See the links below for items merged and awaiting release.


We count on user input to augment and prioritize this list, please contact your [http://acmg.seas.harvard.edu/geos/geos_working_groups.html Working Group Chair] or model scientist [mailto:djacob@fas.harvard.edu Daniel Jacob].

== Feature integration in progress ==
 
Features listed in this table are actively being integrated into GEOS-Chem by the [https://geoschem.github.io/support-team.html GEOS-Chem Support Team]. In addition, we continuously implement structural updates in the model to maintain and develop coupling with other models including GEOS, CESM, and the model adjoint.

Latest revision as of 15:23, 20 November 2024

On this page we list the current priorities for GEOS-Chem development. This list is continuously updated based on code readiness and input from the Working Groups and the Steering Committee. For history of past releases see the GEOS-Chem Versions wiki page.

Merged and awaiting release

See the links below for items merged and awaiting release.

Mergeable at any time Version in development
GEOS-Chem no-diff-to-benchmark GEOS-Chem 14.6.0

Feature integration in progress

Features listed in this table are actively being integrated into GEOS-Chem by the GEOS-Chem Support Team. In addition, we continuously implement structural updates in the model to maintain and develop coupling with other models including GEOS, CESM, and the model adjoint.
