GEOS-Chem Versions Page

This page includes information about GEOS-Chem 13.2.1.

Version overview

The following items have been added to GEOS-Chem 13.2.1 since the last benchmark for GEOS-Chem 13.2.0. See also the following Github pages:

Feature Contributor(s) Model scope Notes
Updates that will affect full-chemistry simulations
Retire tropchem simulation as an option Melissa Sulprizio (GCST) Structural
  • NOTE: Users can still choose between simulations with 72 or 47 vertical levels
Bug fix: Make sure JvalO3O1D and JValO3O3P diagnostic arrays are zeroed in flexchem_mod.F90 Haipeng Lin (Harvard)
Lizzie Lundgren (GCST)) 		Diagnostics
  • NOTE: This update will cause JvalO3O1D and JvalO3O3P plots to differ w/r/t previous versions, but will not affect benchmark metrics such as mean OH concentration, MCF lifetime, etc.
Fix to HEMCO lightning flash rate diagnostic units Lee Murray (Rochester) HEMCO
Diagnostics
Updates that will not affect full-chemistry simulations
Planeflight diagnostic bug fixes: Tess Carter (MIT)
Bob Yantosca (GCST) 		Diagnostics
Fixed typo in gc_grid_mod.F90 that caused a regridding error in nested-grid simulations Lizzie Lundgren (GCST)
Bob Yantosca (GCST) 		Grids Also see:
