    Questions on O3S(Stratospheric Ozone Tracer) calculation

    Dear Community, I run a CESM2.2.0 case with FCSD compset during 1980-2022. The resolution is 0.9°*1.25° with 56 vertical levels. The meteorological field is nudged to MERRA2 and CMIP6 historical emissions are used. I want to analyse the contribution of STT (Stratosphere-to-Troposphere...

    Replacing the Dust Aerosol Online Calculation with Emission Data Yielded Significantly Different Outcomes.

    I am running simulation with CESM2.1.4. The model uses MAM4 to calculate aerosol number concentration and mass concentration. What I want to do: Simulation 1: output the emission flux of dust (both number and mass flux) Simulation 2: read in the (daily) output of dust number and mass flux from...

    compsets that have HFCs?

    Hi everyone, I am trying to model HFCs using CESM2.1.5. Wondering if there are any compsets that contain HFCs or HFC-134a-equivalent in its lower boundary condition files? I have found CFC11eq in other compsets (such as FW1850) but no HFCs. I would really appreciate any help on this!

    Compset question

    Hi, I am using the cesm3_beta06 version code, and want to know if there is any compset that satisfies the requirements of turning on the CAM-Chem and BGC with nudged wind? By looking at the compset website ( CESM2.2.2 Component Sets Definitions ), I only find that the FCfireHIST has the...

    meg_isoprene is an output from clm5 (only), but not cesm?

    Hi, all I run a offline clm5.0, the MEG_isoprene is a default output, but when I changed to run the FHIST case with cesm2.1.3, I can not find MEG_xx in clm2.h0 and cam.h0 files, I would like to ask if the model is coupled, why the MEG_isoprene is disappeared from clm2.h0 files... or I need to...

    SSP emissions in MUSICA

    Hi all, Has anyone succesfully run MUSICA (i.e. CAM-Chem on a variable-resolution SE grid) with future (SSP) emissions? I've run into numerous problems attempting to do this following the approved procedure of using NCAR-provided tools to regrid and then rename raw CMIP6 emissions, and I'm...

    num_a4 unit

    I have a question regarding the actual unit of the num_a4 parameter. From what I’ve observed, num_a4 typically has a unit of (particles/cm²/s) × (molecules/mole) × (g/kg). However, when I looked into the source code used to generate BC emissions—such as the script at...
