Investigate CAMP as a workbench for investigating atmospheric chemical mechanisms and evaluating solvers. #31

CAMP is an aerosol chemistry package embedded in partmc, a project associated with some folks we're interested in collaborating with. For this task, we want to demonstrate that we can successfully build CAMP and run its built-in tests.

Matt Dawson has pointed us at MusicBox, a box model used by the MUSICA project that uses CAMP under the hood. @mschmidt271 is going to try to throw some EAGLES-related chemistry problems at it.

More and more, I'm thinking that CAMP might be a better tool for helping us evaluate TChem. We're thinking about setting up a "micro-driver"--a batch chemistry reactor (0D), basically--that Mike can use to run various atmospheric chemistry mechanisms. If we do this, we can use CAMP as Matt Lawson originally intended to use it: as an interactive chemistry workbench for evaluating those mechanisms. This makes CAMP less of a candidate for a high-performance parallel chemistry solver and more of a domain-specific tool against which we can compare our own solver.

Here's a MAM3 chemistry model from Balwinder to also get working within musicbox

Hey @mschmidt271 , are you satisfied that you've done this? It seems like you're at least conversant with musicbox right now, but I think it's your call whether to close this issue.

mjs271 commented 3 years ago

@jeff-cohere: I'd say I've investigated musicbox and found it to be a good tool (and well-supported!). I'll close.
