Overview

The following table provides links to information about the available chemistry mechanisms in GEOS-Chem.

We use the KineticPreProcessor (KPP) to generate optimized source code to integrate the chemical mechanism forward in time. For more information about how to modify GEOS-Chem chemical mechanisms, please see our Update chemical mechanisms with KPP Supplemental Guide at geos-chem.readthedocs.io.

Mechanism Description Mechanism file Extra options
fullchem NOx + Ox + Br + Cl + I + aerosols chemistry in the troposphere and stratosphere KPP/fullchem/fullchem.eqn
Hg Mercury chemistry
  • Introduced in 13.4.0 as a KPP mechanism
KPP/Hg/Hg.eqn
carbon KPP/carboncycle/carboncycle.eqn
  • Will debut in 14.1.0 as a KPP mechanism
