Chemistry
CRACMM includes a full set of gas and particle species (Pye et al., 2023 ). The gas and heterogeneous chemistry kinetic reactions are described in files provided here. Absorptive partitioning in the CMAQ implementation of CRACMM assumes equilibrium. Note that markdown files round coefficients to the thousandths place for brevity and the true mechanism is represented in the mech.def files.
Box model inputs are provided for the F0AM model (Wolfe et al., 2016 ). The official F0AM release, https://github.com/AirChem/F0AM , includes some version(s) of CRACMM.
CRACMM1 mechanism
CMAQ-ready CRACMM1 mechanism definition file
F0AM chemistry files for CRACMM1 mechanism as implemented by Place et al. (2023) .
CRACMM1AMORE mechanism
CRACMM2 mechanism
CMAQ-ready CRACMM2 mechanism definition file
F0AM chemistry files for CRACMM2 mechanism as implemented by Skipper et al. (2024) .
Documentation by reaction indicating the mechanism version where reaction was introduced (reaction_family), the publication documenting the reaction (publication_string and publication_doi), and the data underlying the reaction (underlying_data_publication, underlying_data_publication_doi) as well as additional notes
