DATA & FILE OVERVIEW
============================================================
---------------------
code.tar
---------------------
GEOS-Chem tagged CO code base as used and described in the
above manuscript. See detailed description in that paper,
and see www.geos-chem.org and
http://wiki.seas.harvard.edu/geos-chem/index.php/Main_Page
for information on running GEOS-Chem.

---------------------
run.tar 
---------------------
GEOS-Chem model run directory as used and described in the
above manuscript.

---------------------
BC-ACT1.tar
BC-ACT2.tar 
BC-ACT3.tar 
BC-ACT4-GEM3.tar 
BC-ACT5.tar 
BC-GEM1.tar 
BC-GEM2.tar 
---------------------
The BC-*.tar files contain daily netcdf files with gridded
3-hourly total and tagged CO mixing ratios between 10-60N
latitude and 60-130W longitude. Latitude, longitude and
vertical dimensions are described internally in the netcdf
files. Fields were generated using a global GEOS-Chem
simulation and used for nested domain boundary conditions as
described in the above manuscript. Each netcdf filename
includes the starting timestamp corresponding to the
simulated concentration fields.
