DOI

This site provides instructions for GEOS-Chem Classic, the single-node mode of operation of the GEOS-Chem model. We provide instruction for downloading and compiling GEOS-Chem Classic, plus its required software libraries.

Note

If you would like to run GEOS-Chem on more than one node of a computing system, consider using GEOS-Chem High Performance (GCHP).

GEOS-Chem is a global 3-D model of atmospheric composition driven by assimilated meteorological observations from the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) of the NASA Global Modeling and Assimilation Office. It is applied by research groups around the world to a wide range of atmospheric composition problems.

Cloning and building from source code ensures you will have direct access to the latest available versions of GEOS-Chem Classic, provides additional compile-time options, and allows you to make your own modifications to GEOS-Chem Classic source code.
