University Information
Missouri S&T is one of the nation's leading research universities with over 100-degree programs in 39 disciplines. It was founded in 1870 as one of the first technological institutions west of the Mississippi River. Located about 100 miles west of St. Louis in the multicultural community of Rolla, Missouri S&T is an accessible, safe, and friendly campus surrounded by Ozarks' scenery. Missouri S&T offers undergraduate degrees in engineering, the sciences, liberal arts, humanities, and business, with M.S. and Ph.D. programs available in many of the science and engineering programs. With over 7,000 students and 300 faculty, Missouri S&T is big enough to accommodate a diverse population, yet small enough for individuals to build high visibility and impactful careers.

Isoprene emissions over South America, modeled with WACCM using the CAM-chem chemical mechanism. Click for larger image.MOZART + GOCART (MOZCART) Chem_opt = 112MOZART + MOSAIC 4 bins Chem_opt = 201 MOZART + MOSAIC 4 bins + AQCHEM Chem_opt = 202The CAM-chem mechanism contains a detailed description of tropospheric inorganic chemistry and of organic species with 3 carbons or less, and a reasonably thorough treatment of isoprene chemistry. Larger alkanes and alkenes, terpenes, and aromatics are also included in the mechanism, albeit with lumping and simplification. The CAM-chem chemical mechanism and model description are published in Emmons et al. (2010). In MOZCART, the gas-phase chemistry is connected with the GOCART bulk aerosol scheme. More information on running WRF-Chem with the MOZCART chemical mechanism can be found in the MOZCART User's Guide. When using this option, please cite Pfister et al. (2011). Pre-processor tools for running WRF-Chem / MOZCART can be obtained from the Download section below.
In MOZART_MOSAIC, the gas-phase chemistry is coupled with the MOSAIC sectional aerosol scheme. The MOZART gas-phase chemistry was extended to include detailed treatment of monoterpenes (a-pinene, b-pinene, limonene) and MBO (Hodzic et al., in prep.), aromatics, HONO, C2H2, as well as an updated isoprene oxidation scheme (Knote et al., 2014). More information on running WRF-Chem with the MOZART/MOSAIC chemical mechanism can be found in the MOZART_MOSAIC User's Guide.
With WRF-Chem V3.9 a new TUV photolysis option has been included (phot_opt=4). This option requires an additional data file. Please refer to the Instructions on how to run WRF-Chem with the new TUV photolysis option.
NCAR/ACOM has developed a program to create time-varying chemical lateral boundary conditions for WRF-Chem from CAM-chem output. For questions about running mozbc please use our WRF-Chem Discussion Forum contacting wrf-chem-mozbc.
For modifications required to run mozbc with the new WRF hybrid coordinate, please see the discussions in the User Forum (Subject line: [WRF-Chem mozbc] mozbc in WRF 3.9 or Greater)
To obtain CAM-chem output files use the CAM-chem Download page. Note that mozbc also has the option to set species to a single fixed value. This is especially relevant for long-lived and well distributed species (e.g. CH4, H2 or N2O) if they are not on the global model output.

anthro_emiss: Create anthropogenic emissions files from global emission inventories
This is a fortran based preprocessor to create WRF-Chem ready anthropogenic emissions files (wrfchemi__ or wrfchemi_00z,12z_) from global inventories on a lat/lon projection. Users are strongly advised to consult the README files before compiling and using the code. See the Download section below.
anthro_emiss with EDGAR-HTAP emissions: For users who like to use the anthro_emiss tool with the global EDGAR-HTAP emission inventory ( _reported_data/htap.php) we provide inputs needed for mapping to the MOZART-MOSAIC and MOZART-GOCART chemical options. This package has been provided by Rajesh Kumar (rku...@ucar.edu).
