README -- Describes contents of HEMCO/GEIA/v2014-07 directory 18 Feb 2015 GEOS-Chem Support Team geos-chem-support@g.harvard.edu Overview: =============================================================================== This directory contains files for the GEIA/Piccot inventory that was used in GEOS-Chem. This inventory was previously the baseline inventory in GEOS-Chem. It has since been superseded by EDGAR and other inventories. For more information, please see: http://wiki.geos-chem.org/Anthropogenic_emissions#GEIA.2FPiccot Files: =============================================================================== ############################################################################### ##### NOTE: The netCDF file attribute 'lev:positive = "up"' was added ##### ##### to all files in GEIA/v2014-07 having a vertical dimension . ##### ##### This was done to facilitate reading these files with GCHP. ##### ##### -- Bob Yantosca (27 Feb 2017) ##### ############################################################################### GEIA_FOSSIL.geos.1x1.nc -- GEIA/Piccot anthropogenic emissions for the following species: ACET, C2H6, CO, MEK, PRPE, C3H8 Resolution : GEOS-Chem 1 x 1 grid (360 x 181 boxes) Units : kg m-2 s-1 (CO); kg carbon m-2 s-1 (everything else) Timestamps : 1985/01 Compression : Level 1 (nccopy -d1) GEIA_NOSO4.fullyear.geos.1x1.nc -- GEIA anthropogenic emissions for the following species: NO, SO4 Resolution : GEOS-Chem 1 x 1 grid (360 x 181 boxes) Units : kg m-2 s-1 (CO); kg carbon m-2 s-1 (everything else) Timestamps : Monthly, 1985/01 thru 1985/12 Compression : Level 1 (nccopy -d1) GEIA_NOSO4.fullyear.geos.4x5.nc -- Contains the same emissions as in GEIA_NOSO4.fullyear.geos.1x1.nc, but the data has been placed on the GEOS-Chem 4 x 5 grid. GEIA_monthscal.generic.1x1.nc -- Monthly emission ratios for GEIA NOx and SO2 Resolution : GENERIC 1 x 1 grid (360 x 180 boxes) Units : kg m-2 s-1 (CO); kg carbon m-2 s-1 (everything else) Timestamps : Monthly, 1985/01 thru 1985/12 Compression : Level 1 (nccopy -d1) GEIA_seasonal_scales.generic.1x1.nc -- Seasonal scale factors (JAM, MAM, JJA, SON) for GEIA NOx and SO2 Resolution : GENERIC 1 x 1 grid (360 x 180 boxes) Units : kg m-2 s-1 (CO); kg carbon m-2 s-1 (everything else) Timestamps : Monthly, 1985/01 thru 1985/12 Compression : Level 1 (nccopy -d1) References: =============================================================================== See the following wiki post for references: http://www.geos-chem.org/Anthropogenic_emissions#References
