Recommended Directory Structure for Geos-Chem Models
ctm_homes (group model directory)
...user_name (user model directory)
......model_name (directory)
.........bpch (Directory, Geos-Chem output files)
.........code (Directory, Geos-Chem source code)
.........IDL (Directory, IDL programs)
.........logs (Directory, Log files)
.........output (Directory, Output from IDL programs)
.........restarts (Directory, Restart files)
.........timeseries (Directory, Time series data)
.........chemga.dat (Geos-Chem input file)
.........diaginfo.dat (GAMAP input file)
.........dust.dat (Geos-Chem input file)
.........geos.GEOS4.2x25.v822 (Geos-Chem executable)
.........globchem.dat (Geos-Chem input file)
.........input.geos (Geos-Chem input file)
.........jv_atms.dat (Geos-Chem input file)
.........jv_spec.dat (Geos-Chem input file)
.........mglob.dat (Geos-Chem input file)
.........ratj.d (Geos-Chem input file)
.........smv2.log (Geos-Chem output file)
.........tracerinfo.dat (GAMAP input file)
Subdirectories can be used to further organize files, if desired. For example, the 'output' directory could include subdirectories to store different types of output files generated by IDL programs:
ctm_homes (group model directory)
...user_name (user model directory)
......model_name (directory)
.........bpch (Directory, Geos-Chem output files)
.........code (Directory, Geos-Chem source code)
.........IDL (Directory, IDL programs)
.........logs (Directory, Log files)
.........output (Directory, Output from IDL programs)
