Global Tropospheric Aerosol Burdens
The table below lists the mean annual global tropospheric burden of several aerosol species in [Tg]. All values are obtained from 1-year benchmark simulations at 4° x 5° resolution done with various GEOS-Chem versions.

| v9-01-01 | GEOS-5 | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD |
| v9-01-02 | GEOS-5 | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD |
| v9-01-03e | GEOS-5 | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD |
| v9-02r (GEOS-5 Run0) | GEOS-5 | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD |
| v9-02r (GEOS-FP Run0) | GEOS-FP | 0.07578 | 1.38846 | 2.62870 | 0.31717 | 3.53365 |
| v9-02r (GEOS-FP Run1) | GEOS-FP | 0.07163 | 1.22752 | 2.89732 | 0.31730 | 3.53138 |

NOTES:
- The simulations that utilized GEOS-5 met fields were done for year 2005, with a 4-year spinup. (Computed by Hongyu Liu)
- The benchmark simulations for v9-02r were done for August 2012–July 2013, with a 2-month spinup. This was due to data availability of the GEOS-FP met fields at the time of the simulation. (Completed by Karen Yu) Tropopause values for June and July 2012 are used for June and July 2013.
- The simulations for GEOS-Chem v10-01 and later versions utilized GEOS-FP met fields for the year 2013, with a 4-year spinup. (Completed by the GEOS-Chem Support Team)
