New GEOS-Chem feature or discussion
On the KPP repository there has been some discussion into preventing prod/loss species from affecting the error norm. One recommendation from @obin1 is to set the absolute tolerance ATOL of prod/loss species to an extremely high value.:
Because the error norm is used to compute KPP internal integration timesteps, this could reduce the amount of time spent in the integrator. As time allows, we might want to try implementing this recommendation in GEOS-Chem.
