Appendix 6: GEOS–Chem List of Chemical Species
In this Appendix, we shall list the chemical species used for the standard GEOS–Chem "full-chemistry" simulation.
See this wiki page for a complete list of chemical species (active + inactive) in the standard GEOS–Chem chemical mechanism file globchem.dat. These species are used in the full chemistry "standard" simulation used by SMVGEAR II and KPP. Many of these species are short-lived, and do not have to be transported as GEOS–Chem tracers.
NOTE: The following chemistry mechanisms have extra species not listed here. For more information, please consult with the GEOS–Chem Oxidants and Chemistry Working Group.
