What's new in this version

Updates that will affect full-chemistry benchmark simulations

Feature Contributor(s) Model scope Notes and references
Aerosol table updates for mineral dust Inderjeet Singh (WashU) Convection
Fixed PDOWN definition and re-evaporation requirement for washout Yuanjian Zhang (WashU) Convection
Now define the dry deposition land cover type properly for O3 deposition to oceans Eloise Marais (UCL)
Bob Yantosca (Harvard)
Dry deposition
Output sea flux species dry deposition velocity with DryDep collection Eloise Marais (UCL)
Bob Yantosca (Harvard)
Dry deposition
  • geos-chem PR #2606
  • NOTE: This update only affects the DryDepVel diagnostic, for species such as ACET that have sea-air deposition applied by HEMCO.
Fix CEDS TMB emissions Kelvin Bates (CU Boulder) Emissions
HEMCO online dust extensions (DustDead, Tomas_DustDead) now use USTAR directly from met field input instead of computing it from winds Yuanjian Zhang (WashU)
Bob Yantosca (Harvard)
Emissions
New version of CEDS at 0.1 x 0.1 degree resolution Dandan Zhang (WashU) Emissions
Bug fix: Emit C6H14 (hexanes) into ALK6 in CEDS 0.1 degree, CMIP, HTAP inventories Bob Yantosca (Harvard) Emissions
Make GC-Classic bit-for-bit reproducible upon restart
(part 1 of 2)
Lizzie Lundgren (Harvard) GC-Classic

Updates that will NOT affect full-chemistry benchmark simulations

Feature Contributor(s) Model scope Notes and references
Need to increase memory for GCHP cloud benchmarks in GitHub action YAML file Bob Yantosca (Harvard) Benchmarking
  • GCHP benchmarks w/ CEDS 0.1 degree emissions exceeded a memory limit, causing the 1-hr and 1-month benchmarks to fail.
  • GCHP PR #470 fixes this issue.
Set a C-preprocessor switch so that we can block out code specific to the KPP rosenbrock_autoreduce integrator Bob Yantosca (Harvard) Build
Need to increase memory for GCHP cloud benchmarks in GitHub action YAML file Bob Yantosca (Harvard) Benchmarking
  • GCHP benchmarks w/ CEDS 0.1 degree emissions exceeded a memory limit, causing the 1-hr and 1-month benchmarks to fail.
Add fix to recompute CH4 reservoir emissions monthly to properly apply seasonality Melissa Sulprizio (Harvard) Carbon sim
CH4 sim
Now allow RxnRate and RxnConst to use four-digit reaction numbers Alfred Mayhew (Utah) Diagnostics
Fix bugs in fixed level and PBL budget diagnostics Lizzie Lundgren (Harvard) Diagnostics
Fix UVFlux diagnostics when using Cloud-J Lizzie Lundgren (Harvard) Diagnostics
Fixed incorrect description metadata for FluxHg0FromOceanToAir and FluxHg0FromAirToOcean diagnostics Ben Geyman (Harvard) Diagnostics
Fix dry-run simulation issues in 14.6.0 development version Bob Yantosca (Harvard) Dry-run
Check if mass flux is top-down and flip accordingly to enable processed mass flux Yuanjian Zhang (WashU) GCHP
Fix improper handling of date timestamps and lat/lon bounds for mask files Bob Yantosca (Harvard) HEMCO
Update KPP/CMakeLists.txt to only compile KPP-Standalone if configured with -DKPPSA=y Bob Yantosca (Harvard) KPP-Standalone
Remove goto statements in drydep_mod.F90 Bob Yantosca (Harvard) Structural
Bug fix: Update paths to CEDS_CO_25 emissions in ExtData.rc.TransportTracers Bob Yantosca (Harvard) TransportTracers (GCHP only)
