Historical Development
Original work on the adjoint of GEOS-Chem v6 began in 2003, focusing on the adjoint of the offline aerosol simulation. By 2005, the adjoint was expanded to include a tagged CO simulation and a full chemistry simulation; an adjoint of GEOS-Chem v7 was also developed in the following years. Each of these branches of the adjoint code were been constructed in a hybrid fashion using a combination of automatic differentiation software (TAMC, KPP) and manual coding of both discrete and continuous adjoints. They shared many common elements yet had unique features for different applications.
During the summer of 2009, the existing branches were merged and updated to bring the adjoint into alignment with the latest release of GEOS-Chem, v8-02-01. This merged adjoint model is now the standard adjoint code into which all further development efforts will be placed.
Current Forward Model Code
The forward model on which the adjoint is based corresponds to GEOS-Chem v8-02-01 with the following updates:
- KPP solver for gas-phase chemistry (as in GCv8-02-03)
- Implement Bond 2007 BC/OC emissions (as in GCv8-02-02)
- Apply bug fixes from GCv8-02-02 listed here
- Apply bug fixes from GCv8-02-03 listed here
- Apply bug fixes from GCv8-02-04 listed here
- ...
All bug fixes and model updates that have been ported from the forward model are now listed at the top of inverse_driver.f. For example:

Primary code developers

Adjoint model lead scientist
Daven Henze
Known issues
- Nicolas Bousserez reported a problem with compiling the GEOS-Chem adjoint with OpenMP under IFORT 11.
- There is a bug in the forward model implementation of variable tropopause which can cause unstable adjoints. Recommend turning off variable tropopause for all full chemistry adjoint runs until this is addressed.
Resources
User's guide
A user's guide is available. http://adjoint.colorado.edu/%7Edaven/gcadj_std/GC_adj_man.pdf
Code flowchart
Meemong Lee has created a detailed flowchart of the inverse model code structure. http://adjoint.colorado.edu/~daven/gcadj_std/flowchart.pdf
Plotting tools
Some IDL and MATLAB routines for plotting benchmark results. http://adjoint.colorado.edu/~daven/gcadj_std/tools.tar.gz
Background papers and presentations
Several articles and presentations (including a GC adjoint modeling clinic overview from IGC5) providing background information about adjoints. http://adjoint.colorado.edu/~daven/gcadj_std/adj_articles.tar.gz
Distribution and Use
Code for the adjoint is distributed through a CVS server located at adjoint.colorado.edu. Contact Daven Henze to obtain an account on the server.
Even if your office mate has a copy of the code, the best way to obtain the model is to get a CVS account for yourself and download a version from the repository. So please do not copy code directly from others or pass the code along to third parties. This vastly helps with tracking developments and keeping up with model updates.
Use of the adjoint model code follows standard practice for GEOS-Chem. It is expected that any developments that come of individual applications based on this community model will eventually be given back to the community by incorporation of new developments into the standard adjoint code. New development should be submitted to Daven Henze for inclusion in the standard adjoint model code.
Crediting GEOS-Chem adjoint developers
We aim to make distribution of adjoint model code as immediate as possible. A consequence is that many features may not yet be publicly documented. Therefore, giving code developers due credit is of utmost importance.
Authors of new additions to the standard code should be offered co-authorship on the first round of presentations and publications to come of their development. Features currently falling in this category and their developers are:
- (v31) Asian nested grid for tagged CO. Developer: Zhe Jiang, University of Toronto.
- (v31) MOPITT CO v3 and v4 observation operators. Developer: Zhe Jiang, University of Toronto.
- (v29) LIDORT. Developer: Daven Henze, University of Colorado Boulder. Collaborator: Rob Spurr.
- (v28) CO2 adjoint. Developer: Daven Henze, University of Colorado Boulder. Collaborators: Ray Nassar, Kevin Bowman, Dylan Jones.
Citation of the appropriate journal articles for mature developments is also encouraged, as well as considering aspects of co-authorship for the forward model.
Overall, if you have any questions about authorship, even for a conference presentation, please contact Daven Henze.
