Hello everybody
I am using WRF-Chem 4.2 to simulate gas and aerosol chemistry in two different regional domains in South America (tropical and subtropical), using the RADM2/MADE/SORGAM mechanism (chem_opt=2).
I both cases I get unreasonably high NO2 and O3 mixing rations, well above the measured in several monitoring sites, likewise NO is inreasonably low.
I do not understand why I am getting these anomalous results.
Any suggestion is wellcome
Below I am attaching the physics and chem options set in the namelist.input file (tropical case)
Regards
Hector
