GEOS-Chem 14.3.1

Release date: 02 Apr 2024

From CHANGELOG.md

• Added operational run scripts for the Imperial College London (ICL) cluster
• Added new vertical region option to budget diagnostic for fixed bottom and top levels
• Added GEOS-IT processed lat-lon fields as a valid option when creating GCHP run directories
• Functions charArr2str and str2CharArr in Headers/charpak_mod.F90
• Field State_Diag%Obspack_CharArray as a 2-D character array
• Added util folder in run/CESM to include .cdl file used to generate CESM NetCDF input file for deposition
• Add GCClassic operational example environment files for Harvard Cannon
• Added new GCHP history collections for advection diagnostics
• Added slash in front of names of LUT files read into photolysis_mod.F90 to avoid needing it in path

Changed

• Updated Harvard Cannon operational run scripts to use huce_cascade instead of huce_intel; also added sapphire
• Changed exponent 'e' to 'd' for one entry in KPP to prevent precision error in external models
• Changed GCHP sample run scripts to not print script execution commands to log
• Changed offline emissions grid resolution templates in config files to be more descriptive
• Read obspack_id from netCDF files into a character array, then convert to string
• Add #SBATCH -c 1 to GCHP integration test scripts and sample run scripts for Harvard Cannon
• In GCC/GCHP integration tests, passing -s none will run compile-only tests. Query user to proceed or to exit.
• GCC/GCHP integration tests will exit immediately if scheduler is omitted.
• Now use raw instead of native in GCHP run directory scripts & templates
• Rename env var RUNDIR_METLIGHTNING_DIR_NATIVE to RUNDIR_METLIGHTNING_DIR
• Rename env var RUNDIR_METLIGHTNING_NATIVE_RES to RUNDIR_METLIGHTNING_RES
• Updated config files used in CESM from GEOS-Chem 14.1 to 14.3
• Don't create run directories for integration/parallel tests if invoked with -t compile
• Refactor integration and parallel test scripts to reduce the number of input arguments
• Copy utility scripts that allow you to resubmit failed to integration and parallel test root directories
• Update GCHP operational example environment files for Harvard Cannon
• Do not run GCClassic integration test compile jobs in the background
• Updated integration tests to pass quick option to compile scripts
• Removed emissions handling from global_ch4_mod.F90 and carbon_gases_mod.F90 and instead apply scale factors to emissions directly in HEMCO_Config.rc
• Loop over advected species CH4 chemistry routines to allow for multiple CH4 tracers within analytical inversion framework
• Updated CH4 global anthropogenic emission inventory from EDGARv7 to EDGARv8

Fixed

• Fixed unit conversions in GEOS-only code
• Fixed GEOS-IT native lat-lon filenames used for clusters other than discover
• Fixed offline emission paths set when using GEOS-IT meteorology
• Fixed format issue in input_mod RRTMG print statement caught by some compilers
• Fixed GEOS-IT SLP and TROPP scaling in pre-processed files used in GCHP
• Fixed reading of NEI emissions through HEMCO
• Fixed incorrect units metadata for State_Met%PHIS
• Fixed bug in transport tracer ST80 mask criteria which prevented mask from ever being zero

Removed

• Removed MPI broadcasts in CESM-only photolysis code; will read on all cores
• Removed State_Chm%CH4_EMIS
