[QUESTION] Mass flux diagnostics #574

Closed deepangsu closed 3 years ago

deepangsu commented 3 years ago

How an the mass flux diagnostics (N24 and N25) be included in the simulations with GC Classic with version 12.1.0. The input.geos includes the diagnostics, however will the diagnostics be included in the simulation just by switching from 0 to 1 under the 'L' column if I need only 1st level ?

Thanks for writing @deepangsu. Yes, if you only need the 1st level you can set:

ND24: E/W transpt flx   :  1   all
ND25: N/S transpt flx   :  1   all

The number is the maximum number of levels to save out (from level=1). So if you wanted to save out 72 levels of this diagnostic you would set:

ND24: E/W transpt flx   :  72  all
ND25: N/S transpt flx   :  72  all

Please see this section on the GEOS-Chem wiki wiki page for more information.

Also I am going to transfer this issue to the geoschem/geos-chem repository, as the GCClassic issue tracker should be used for issues specific to the GCClassic wrapper repository.
