Where in CAM-Chem is wet and dry deposition performed?

What version of the code are you using?
CESM2.2 - CAM6.3

Have you made any changes to files in the source tree?
Changes in nudging and modal aerosol optical properties modules

Describe every step you took leading up to the problem:
I modified the assimilation of AODs into CAM6 and I want to reduce certain aerosols types, such as sea salt.
The documentation explains those processes from page 159

Describe your problem or question:
I am looking for the modules where wet and dry deposition is performed.
 
Hi Toni-
I suppose you are referring to aerosol deposition in MAM, not gas depositions.
Look at aero_model.F90 and look for aero_model_wetdep() and aero_model_drydep(). You can then trace the subroutines and functions they use, which can exist elsewhere.
CESM2.2 aero_model.F90: CAM/src/chemistry/modal_aero/aero_model.F90 at cam_cesm2_2_rel · ESCOMP/CAM
For others looking at this thread, note that this is for CESM2 only. In CESM3 the code infrastructure is changed and the code looks quite a bit different.
