Updates

MOZART-4 was released October 13, 2009.

23 Oct 2009: update with corrections to the compiling and run scripts.

5 Nov 2009: update with a minor correction to the configure script (cfg_mz4) addressing the "foreach: No match" error some users have encountered. The make_mz4 script has been modified to include user src directories in addition to the pp directory. In addition the missing link in the run directory from utils/ncar_batch has been added (relevant only to NCAR bluefire users).

2 Feb 2010: history and restart filenames now have simulation case and dates; restart 'integrity' upgraded; sea salt deposition corrected; negative photolysis rates prevented; NCAR mswrite/msread commands replaced with separate archiving script.  More details included in attachment below. 

Updates and complete source code are available on the NCAR Community Data Portal under MOZART-4 Source Code (http://cdp.ucar.edu).

August 2010:  New additions to the NCAR CDP MOZART-4 directory:  "MOZART-4 IC files" (which contain initial condition files for January and July for several years) and monthly mean output for 2006 has been added to the "MOZART-4 Output Data" directory.

April 2013: corrected mo_srf_emis.f90 for error dealing with npp emissions file.
