This benchmark simulation is GEOS-Chem v11-02d-Run1. The following
updates since GEOS-Chem v11-02c-Run0 have been applied:

    VERSION        | FEATURES INCLUDED
   =======================================================================
    v11-02d          Features impacting the full-chemistry simulation:
                     - Halogen chemistry updates
                     - Sulfur oxidation by reactive halogens
                     - Add bug fixes for GLYX, MGLY, IEPOX, and IMAE
                       heterogeneous chemistry
                     - Fix bug impacting dust radius obtained in RDUST_ONLINE
                       for UCX simulations
                     - Add fix for IPMN reactions contributing to high P(Ox)
                       and L(Ox)

                     Features NOT impacting the full-chemistry simulation:
                     - Update CH4 latitude bands for 2014-2016
                     - Remove support for GCAP, GEOS-4, MERRA, GEOS-5
                     - Timestamp HEMCO diagnostics filename with start time
                       rather than end time
                     - Structural updates for netCDF diagnostics
 
This benchmark simulation uses the standard chemistry mechanism (i.e. tropchem
+ UCX + SOA + halogens ) and 72 vertical levels.
