About WRF-GC

WRF-GC is an online two-way coupled meteorology-chemistry model using WRF to drive GEOS-Chem chemistry. It is developed by Haipeng Lin, Xu Feng, and Tzung-May Fu and based at the Atmospheric Chemistry & Climate Group at SUSTech.

The WRF-GC model includes a versatile coupler coupling GEOS-Chem to WRF in a manner similar to WRF-Chem, making it seamless for WRF-Chem users to use WRF-GC and allowing GEOS-Chem users access to WRF-simulated online weather, with the capability for hindcasts and forecasts.
