2.0.1
This is version 2.0.1 of WRF-GC, released 2021/09/17.
WRF-GC v2.0 (Feng et al. (2021)) is an online two-way coupling of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) meteorological model (v3.9.1.1) and the GEOS-Chem chemical model (v12.8.1). WRF-GC v2.0 is built on the modular framework of WRF-GC v1.0 and further includes aerosol-radiation interactions (ARI) and aerosol-cloud interactions (ACI) based on bulk aerosol mass and composition, as well as the capability to nest multiple domains for high-resolution simulations.
Major features of WRF-GC v2.0:
- Updated compatibility with the latest release of GEOS-Chem v12.8.1
- Aerosol-radiation interactions and aerosol-cloud interactions that can be turned on/off
- Nested-domain functionality
- Online lightning NOx emissions
- Restart run functionality
- Bug fixes from v1.0
