Merge PR #2426 (Store aerosol-specific optics files in new directory)
This merge brings PR #2426 (Store aerosol-specific optics files in new Aerosol_Optics data directory, by @lizziel) into the GEOS-Chem 14.5.0\ development stream. This PR moves the aerosol-specific optics data files (so4.dat, dust.dat, etc) into a new data directory with path specified in the Aerosols menu in geoschem_config.yml. Previously these files were stored in the same data directory as photolysis input files. However, since we now have both FAST-JX (for Hg simulation) and Cloud-J (for fullchem and aerosol sims) we would need to store identical files in two different places. This is not ideal. In addition it may cause confusion since these files are no longer used for photolysis in Cloud-J. Aerosol optical properties used in Cloud-J come from input file FJX_scat-aer.dat. There are a few additional changes in this PR related to this data: 1. Move the calls to RD_AOD and CALC_AOD from Init_Photolysis to both Init_Aerosol and Init_FastJX. The former is for use in full chemistry and aerosol-only simulations. The latter is for use in the Hg simulation since it still uses Fast-JX and Fast-JX uses arrays computed by CALC_AOD. 2. Change the criteria to call Init_Aerosol to be based on simulation type rather than Input_Opt logicals for different aerosols. Init_Aerosol is now always called if using the full chemistry or aerosol-only simulation. Signed-off-by: Bob Yantosca <[email protected]>
