The objective of the GEOS-Chem Working Groups (WGs) is to:
- Foster communication between Working Group members for collaboration and sharing of information
- Facilitate identification of model development priorities
- Provide GEOS-Chem users a vehicle for pushing model development priorities.
Working Group chairs engage with the GEOS-Chem community to identify and promote model developments. This process is guided by a document on Guiding Principles for Updates to the GEOS-Chem Model.
All GEOS-Chem users are invited to join the Working Group(s) that corresponds to their own particular area(s) of research. For more information, please contact the relevant Working Group Chair. You effectively join a Working Group by signing up for the relevant Working Group email List.
