Overview
========

The :program:`GEOS-Chem tagged ozone simulation` allows you to use
archived ozone production and loss rates to perform a simulation for
geographically tagged ozone tracers without having to run the
full-chemistry simulation. The tagged O3 simulation is also used to
spin up the ozone into steady-state when validating a new
meterorolgical field product.
