This version includes the following updates:
- Updated halogen chemistry
- Improved cloudwater pH
- Update offline lightning data through Dec 2019
- Convert GEOS-Chem species database to YAML format, includes: a. Defining all species properties in the species database, not just advected species b. Initializing the species database with values read from the YAML file
- Update GEOS-Chem core to apply masking and scaling to HEMCO inputs
- Bug fix: Restore missing photolysis reactions from 12.8.0 and add an extra error check
- Bug fix: Remove inefficient code that was slowing down computation of heterogenous chemistry rates
- Corrected issue in GEOS-Chem dry-run where some files were not being properly marked for download
- Bug fixes for the ObsPack diagnostic: a. Change units of ObsPack specific humidity (Q) field to g/kg b. Restore missing code due to Git merge that caused the OBSPACK MENU of input.geos not to be read
- Fixes for reading meteorology fields in HEMCO: a. Skip reading FLASH_DENS and CONV_DEPTH fields when lightning NOx extension is turned off b. Change time cycle flag for meteorology fields to use exact date
