Abstract
Abstract. This paper outlines the structure and usage of the GenChem system, which
includes a chemical pre-processor GenChem.py) and a simple box model
(boxChem). GenChem provides scripts and input files for converting
chemical equations into differential form for use in atmospheric chemical
transport models (CTMs) and/or the boxChem system. Although GenChem is
primarily intended for users of the Meteorological
Synthesizing Centre – West of the European Monitoring and Evaluation
Programme (EMEP MSC-W) CTM and related systems,
boxChem can be run as a stand-alone chemical solver, enabling for example
easy testing of chemical mechanisms against each other. This paper
presents an outline of the usage of the GenChem system, explaining input
and output files, and presents some examples of usage. The code needed to run GenChem is released as open-source code under the GNU license.
