Le modèle GECKO-A en open source

Published on Friday, 16 May 2025 09:20

Developed over many years at LISA and NCAR, the GECKO-A model (Generator for Explicit Chemistry and Kinetics in the Atmosphere) enables (i) the auto-generation of explicit chemical schemes for the oxidation of a precursor compound in the gas and condensed phases (i.e. provide the list of elementary reactions and associated kinetic constants) and (ii) describe the phase transfer of each organic species (i.e. provide the mass transfer and associated properties: saturation vapor pressure, Henry's law constants, etc.).

 

The GECKO-A model code is now available as open source. You can now download/clone it via a gitlab IPSL repository. The 0D box model for solving GECKO-A chemical mechanisms in time is also available as open source on the IPSL gitlab repository.

The gitlab repositories are also accompanied by detailed wikis to help you get to grips with the model.
