.. _cfg-hco-cfg: ############### HEMCO_Config.rc ############### GEOS-Chem Classic relies on the `Harmonized Emissions Component (aka HEMCO) `_ for file I/O, regridding, and computing emissions fluxes. Settings for HEMCO can be updated in the `HEMCO configuration file `_, which is named :file:`HEMCO_Config.rc`. The HEMCO online manual at `hemco.readthedocs.io `_ contains detailed instructions about the structure and contents of :file:`HEMCO_Config.rc`, so we will not replicate that content in this Guide. Instead, we will provide a short summary with links to the relevant documentation. .. _cfg-hco-cfg-settings: ====================== General HEMCO settings ====================== Define general simulation parameters in the `Settings section `_ of :file:`HEMCO_Config.rc`. This includes data paths, global diagnostic options, and verbose output options. .. code-block:: kconfig ############################################################################### ### BEGIN SECTION SETTINGS ############################################################################### ROOT: /path/to/hemco/data/dir METDIR: /path/to/hemco/met/dir GCAPSCENARIO: not_used GCAPVERTRES: 47 Logfile: * DiagnFile: HEMCO_Diagn.rc DiagnPrefix: ./OutputDir/HEMCO_diagnostics DiagnFreq: 00000000 010000 Wildcard: * Separator: / Unit tolerance: 1 Negative values: 0 Only unitless scale factors: false Verbose: false VerboseOnCores: root # Accepted values: root all ### END SECTION SETTINGS ### .. _cfg-hco-cfg-extswitches: ================== Extension switches ================== Turn individual emissions inventories on/off in the `Extension Switches section `_ of :file:`HEMCO_Config.rc`.

The input file and read frequency information is not used because MAPL ExtData handles file input rather than HEMCO in GCHP. Items at the top of the file that are ignored include: * :literal:`ROOT` data directory path * :literal:`METDIR` path * :literal:`DiagnPrefix` * :literal:`DiagnFreq` * :literal:`Wildcard` The :literal:`ROOT` data directory and :literal:`METDIR` paths are instead specified by the symbolic links in the run directory. Diagnostic filename and frequency information are specified in :file:`HISTORY.rc`. Emissions diagnostics in GCHP are output in the same way and with the same file format as other diagnostic collections in GCHP. Please note, however, that all emissions diagnostics are vertically flipped relative to other diagnostics, with level 1 corresponding to top-of-atmosphere. In the :ref:`cfg-hco-base` section and beyond, columns that are ignored include: * :literal:`sourceFile` * :literal:`sourceVar` * :literal:`sourceTime` * :literal:`C/R/E` * :literal:`SrcDim` * :literal:`SrcUnit` Because GCHP uses NASA MAPL code to read and regrid input files the file path, variable name, and data frequency are specified in GCHP config file :file:`ExtData.rc`. Input data dimensions and units are not needed since they are taken directly from the file during read. Note that some GEOS-Chem simulations require that all species be present in the restart file. For GEOS-Chem Classic you can get around this by updating the :literal:`C/R/E` flags in :file:`HEMCO_Config.rc`. In GCHP that part of :file:`HEMCO_Config.rc` is not used. To configure your run to allow missing species in the restart file you instead need to flip a switch in config file :file:`setCommonRunSettings.sh`. Search for string :literal:`Require_Species_in_Restart` in the file. If set to 1 it will require species, and if set to 0 it will not. Also beware that one entry in :file:`HEMCO_Config.rc` is changed when script :file:`setCommonRunSettings.sh` is executed in the run script prior to running GCHP. The online dust mass tuning factor gets replaced by a value specific to your configured grid resolution. One entry also gets propagated to another configuration file by :file:`setCommonRunSettings.sh`. Lightning entries in :file:`ExtData.rc` get commented or uncommented depending on whether lightning climatology is turned on in :file:`HEMCO_Config.rc`.
