Appendix 5: GEOS–Chem Diagnostics

We list the various diagnostic quantities that you can archive with GEOS–Chem.

This documentation is also contained in the comments to source code files diag3.F, diag03_mod.F, diag04_mod.F, diag42_mod.F, and diag56_mod.F. For each diagnostic, the following fields are shown:

Flag Dimension Quantity Units Category

where CATEGORY is the 8-character name used by GAMAP to reference a particular diagnostic field. Information about how to set the different flags in the input.geos file can be found in Chapter 5. DIMENSION is usually 2-D or 3-D, with I,J,L for longitude, latitude and level indices. N as a third or fourth dimension refers to the number of tracers that a diagnostic can carry.
