WRF-GC ([https://gmd.copernicus.org/articles/13/3241/2020/gmd-13-3241-2020.html Lin et al., 2020]; [https://gmd.copernicus.org/articles/14/3741/2021/ Feng et al., 2021]) is a new, online coupled model based on the the regional meteorology model, [https://www.mmm.ucar.edu/weather-research-and-forecasting-model WRF], and the chemical transport model, [http://acmg.seas.harvard.edu/geos/ GEOS-Chem]. The coupling structure is designed to be easy to use, massively parallel, and ready for the future. In particular, either one of the two parent models to be updated independently. This allows WRF-GC to take full advantage of the updates in WRF and GEOS-Chem, respectively, and stay state-of-the-science.

About WRF-GC

WRF-GC (Lin et al., 2020; Feng et al., 2021) is a new, online coupled model based on the the regional meteorology model, WRF, and the chemical transport model, GEOS-Chem. The coupling structure is designed to be easy to use, massively parallel, and ready for the future. In particular, either one of the two parent models to be updated independently. This allows WRF-GC to take full advantage of the updates in WRF and GEOS-Chem, respectively, and stay state-of-the-science.

WRF-GC is open-source and free to download and use.

Architectural overview of the WRF-GC model (v2.0). The WRF-GC two-way Coupler (all parts shown in red) includes interfaces to the two parent models, as well as the state conversion and state management modules. The parent models (shown in grey) are standard codes downloaded from their sources, without any modifications. From Feng et al. (2021).


The development of WRF-GC was led by Haipeng LIN, Xu FENG, and Tzung-May FU. In addition, the GEOS-Chem Support Team provided valuable assistance in updating the GEOS-Chem code to accommodate the coupling.

Version history

Version 3.0

(updated April 24, 2024) WRF-GC v3.0 includes the following major new features and technical updates:

  • Supports GEOS-Chem 14.1.1, KPP 3.0.0, and HEMCO 3.6.2.
  • Supports WRF version 4.4.
  • Infrastructure for specialty simulations. Now can install couplers for fullchem, ch4, and co2 using the install_registry command.
  • Add support for History diagnostics and HEMCO diagnostics ("WRF-GC 3.0 Diagnostics") using pNETCDF.
  • Technical Update: Compiles GEOS-Chem 13+ without using CMake by maintaining the legacy GNU infrastructure.
  • Technical Update: Auto-patching of wrf_io.F90 to support more than 3,000 variables in wrfbdy.
  • Technical Update: No longer inputs initial/boundary conditions for non-advected species through i0{12} switch in registry.chem.

  • Bugfix: Month-boundary HEMCO emissions missing timesteps.
  • Bugfix: ParaNOx stability issue via upstream GEOS-Chem 14.0.1 fix. Note that according to Colombi et al., 2023 ACP <https://acp.copernicus.org/articles/23/4031/2023/>_ it may not be necessary to use ParaNOx for high-resolution simulations with WRF-GC.
  • Bugfix: Initial condition input bug for nested domain(s).


Version 2.0

(updated June 24, 2021) WRF-GC v2.0 (Feng et al. (2021)) is an online two-way coupling of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) meteorological model (v3.9.1.1) and the GEOS-Chem chemical model (v12.7.2). WRF-GC v2.0 is built on the modular framework of WRF-GC v1.0 and further includes aerosol-radiation interactions (ARI) and aerosol-cloud interactions (ACI) based on bulk aerosol mass and composition, as well as the capability to nest multiple domains for high-resolution simulations.

Major features of WRF-GC v2.0:

  • Updated compatibility with the latest release of GEOS-Chem v12.8.1
  • Aerosol-radiation interactions and aerosol-cloud interactions that can be turned on/off
  • Nested-domain functionality
  • Online lightning NOx emissions
  • Restart run functionality
  • Bug fixes from v1.0


Version 1.0

The first version of WRF-GC (v1.0) (Lin et al., 2020) was released on January 4, 2019. A more mature and stable version (v 1.0) was released in Fall 2019.

(updated Feb 26, 2021) We recommend that all users upgrade to WRF-GC v2.0.

A few notes about v1.0:

  • The coupling between WRF and GEOS-Chem is one-way only, i.e., there is no feedback from GEOS-Chem to WRF.
  • The nested domain capability of WRF is not yet supported.
