CARMA refactoring, concentration element #44

Open tilmes opened 5 months ago

tilmes commented 5 months ago

Refactored code for MAM4 and CARMA with the purpose to isolate aerosols internal processes from other processes in the atmospheric model. Refactored code will include all processes in CAM.

Location of code currently: /glade/work/fvitt/camdev/CARMA_TS_cam6_3_128/ Test case: /glade/work/tilmes/derecho/carma/FCARMAnudged_f09.cam6_3_128.carma_trop_strat.CARMA_TS.test1

Concentration Element refactor: include changing the CARMA coupling code (carma_intr.F90) to remove the concentration element structure and instead pass on different elements, and not the total aerosol information of the group to the atmospheric model. Location of code currently: /glade/work/fvitt/camdev/CARMA_TS_cam6_3_128_concelem/ Test case: /glade/work/tilmes/derecho/carma/FCARMAnudged_f09.cam6_3_128.carma_trop_strat.CARMA_TS.test1

Current Issues: Model is not producing a balanced budget. The issue is likely somewhere in the CARMA code base. Test case: /glade/work/tilmes/derecho/carma/FCARMAnudged_f09.cam6_3_128_concelem.carma_trop_strat.CARMA_TS.test1
