Following the benchmarking of GEOS-Chem 13.2.0 with the Luo et al. (2020) wet deposition scheme, Gan Luo noticed a bug in the code. He wrote: Simulated sulfate mass concentration looks lower than what I expected. I checked https://github.com/geoschem/geos-chem/blob/13.2.0-beta.0/GeosCore/sulfate_mod.F90 It seems that we missed some switches for Non-volatile aerosol concentration calculation: (1) At line 5142 D = (2.e+0_fp*SO4nss) - (TNA+2.e+0_fp*TDCA), it should be: #ifdef LUO_WETDEP D = (1.5e+0_fp*SO4nss) - (TNA+2.e+0_fp*TDCA) #else D = (2.e+0_fp*SO4nss) - (TNA+2.e+0_fp*TDCA) #endif (2) At line 5156 D = (2.e+0_fp * SO4nss) - TNA), it should be: #ifdef LUO_WETDEP D = (1.5e+0_fp * SO4nss) - TNA #else D = (2.e+0_fp * SO4nss) - TNA #endif Switching from 2.e+0_fp * SO4nss to 1.5e+0_fp * SO4nss is following the reasons introduced in Luo et al. (2020). Signed-off-by: Melissa Sulprizio <mpayer@seas.harvard.edu>
