1-year Transport Tracers benchmarks
Two 1-year Transport Tracers benchmark simulation were performed using GEOS-Chem 12.8.0:
Both simulations utilized 4° x 5° GEOS-FP met fields for the year 2016, with a 10-year spinup. These simulations can be used to validate the Luo wet dep scheme which is offered as an option starting in this version.
