Overview:
===============================================================================

This directory contains information for input into the CLOUD-J photolysis 
mechanism. It is a copy of what was used for FAST-JX (directory FAST_JX/v2020-02)
with minor formatting changes to work with Cloud-J v7.7. Additional files are
either new files expected by Cloud-J, either within GEOS-Chem or run as standalone,
or are used in GEOS-Chem and expected to be in the same folder as other photolysis
files.

Files used in GEOS-Chem:
===============================================================================
