Hi!CESM community:
l just want to be clear about the data of aerosol related variables such as wetso4, dryso4 etc. in the historical experiments downloaded in cmip6. Will the model results take into account the contribution of sulfate in primary aerosols such as dust and sea salt? If so, how are these primary aerosols treated in the models? (Set a fixed value? assumed to be zero, or handled in another way? Additionally, I would like to understand how general models treat these contribution)
As I am still new to working with climate models, any insights you could provide would be extremely helpful for my understanding of aerosol processes in the model.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration.
