Revision as of 21:29, 3 November 2011
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.
List of priorities as of Oct 2011
This is list of planned GEOS-Chem model development items updated from the List of priorities identified at IGC5. The key model developer or model contact is identified for each item.
We count on user input to augment and prioritize this list, please contact your Working Group Chair or model scientist Daniel Jacob.
