1-month full-chemistry benchmarks

Benchmark simulations typically aren't performed for bug fix releases, but in this case the initial conditions of full-chemistry simulations were impacted because the sample restart file has been updated. Here we document the changes from that update.

1-month benchmark setup

The following table describes the GEOS-Chem setup for both GEOS-Chem Classic and GCHP 1-month benchmark simulations.

Overview
Below we summarize the notable changes caused by specific updates. See also the internal benchmark results which isolate impacts from specific updates.

1. Fix GC-Classic pressure fixer bug that caused high ozone bias over poles in 13.4.0 global simulations

This fix addressed the high O3 bias over the poles and decreased O3 by up to 10 ppb at high latitudes as shown in this plot. Global mean OH concentrations changed by -0.49% with this fix.

This bug was identified when examining large differences in GEOS-Chem Classic vs GCHP that were introduced in 13.4.0. The decreases in O3 seen in GEOS-Chem Classic in this version largely correct the increases in O3 in GEOS-Chem Classic observed in 13.4.0
