Current GEOS-Chem Transport Issues

Transport Tracers simulation
This update was included in GEOS-Chem 12.2.0, which was released on 19 Feb 2019.
The Transport Working Group proposed implementing a common set of transport tracers in GEOS-Chem for benchmarking purposes and for diagnosing transport in GEOS-Chem compared to GEOS. The GMI tracer suite is implemented via the tracer gridded component "TR_GridComp" in GEOS. In GEOS-Chem, the tracer suite has been added as an extension of the Rn-Pb-Be simulation (simulation type "1") by default, but may be added to any GEOS-Chem simulations by following the instructions below.
The current and future proposed transport tracers are summarized below.

Origin tracers
Chris Holmes wrote:
- Another tracer suggestion: I like and use the "origin" tracers defined by Clara Orbe et al. (2013). These tracers give the fraction of air that that originates in specified source regions.
- In addition to diagnosing transport, I think the tracers will be useful as templates for users to modify for their own purposes (e.g. customizing source regions). For that reason, a comprehensive set of tracers would be useful, if they can be optional.
