 +Two more diagnostics are useful:
 +  * Enable estimates multiple calls to radiation which are necessary for effective radiative forcing estimates
 +  * Enable diagnostics for AEROCOM
 +
 +
 +To enable this, take the file cam/src/physics/cam_oslo$ vim preprocessorDefinitions.h and copy it to your SourceMods/src.cam folder
 +
 +Change both preprocessor definitions to true

 +More info on SO2 budgets (see /models/atm/cam/tools/diagnostics/ncl/ModIvsModII/ for scripts with info on all tracers): 
 +
 +GS_SO2 contains the SO2 budget terms for all that goes on in the chemistry-routine, which is \\
 +1) Gas phase chemistry, 2) Wet deposition, and 3) 3D-emissions.\\
 +Gas phase chemistry is both production from DMS (GS_DMS) and loss through OH (GL_OH) \\
 +For calculations of net loss, e.g. used to calculate SO2 life-times, we're interested in the \\
 +loss through OH from the chemistry-term (GL_OH).\\
 +GS_SO2 = GL_OH + SO2_CLXF - WD_A_SO2 - GS_DMS*64/62 \\
 +or \\
 +GL_OH = GS_SO2 - SO2_CLXF + WD_A_SO2 + GS_DMS*64/62 \\
 +
 +Estimating chemical loss w.r.t. S (instead of SO2 or DMS), for comparison with CAM4-Oslo numbers:\\
 +net chemial loss gas phase = (GS_SO2/1.998 - SO2_CLXF + WD_A_SO2)/1.998  + GS_DMS/1.938 \\
 +net chemical loss = net chemial loss gas phase + AQ_SO2/1.998 \\
 +
 +Finally, total net loss (used to calculate life-time = -load/(net loss), where load = cb_SO2/1.998):\\
 +net loss = \\
 +- WD_A_SO2/1.998    ;wet deposition in kg/m2/sec (positive in output file) \\
 +- DF_SO2/1.998      ;dry deposition in kg/m2/sec (positive in output file) \\
 ++ AQ_SO2/1.998      ;wet phase production of SO4 in kg/m2/ses (negative in output file) \\
 ++ (GS_SO2 - SO2_CLXF + WD_A_SO2)/1.998 + GS_DMS/1.938  ; net chemical loss gas phase \\

 +===Making ncl plots of often used aerosol and cloud fields, including ERFs, for two model versions (CAM-Oslo only) ===
 +
 +  * Make a local copy (on Linux) of the directory models/atm/cam/tools/diagnostics/ncl/ModIvsModII
 +  * Assuming that you have produced output data from 4 simulations: two different model versions, each with PD and PI emissions, and all run with #define AEROCOM & AEROFFL:   
 +  * In ModIvsModII.csh (note: read the header info):
 +  * - edit model info for the first model (shown to the left in the plots): modelI = CAM4-Oslo or modelI = CAM5-Oslo ?
 +  * - provide paths and partial file names of the model data (PD and PI) for Model I (CAM4-Oslo or CAM5-Oslo) and Model II (must be CAM5-Oslo)
 +  * - choose desired plot format (plotf=ps, eps, pdf or png)
 +  * Run the script: ./ModIvsModII.csh
 +  * Furthermore, to display the plots in an organized form by use of a web browser (only possible if the chosen plot format is png):    
 +  * - download htm template files from ftp://ftp.met.no/projects/noresmatm/upload/NorESM2Diagnostics/ModIvsModII/htm-templates/
 +  * - edit general model info (only) in ModIvsModII.htm, and manually cut and paste the mass budget numbers from the script output into this file 
 +  * - copy all png (plots) and htm files to the desired output (common) directory
 +  * - open ModIvsModII.htm in your browser: hyper-links to all other htm files, including plots, are found here
 +  * Example: ftp://ftp.met.no/projects/noresmatm/upload/NorESM2Diagnostics/ModIvsModII/revision610inclSOA-Nudged_1984-12to1985-11_vs_CAM4-Oslo/ModIvsModII.htm

 +===Preparing output for AEROCOM analysis===
 +
 +To prepare output so that it is processed automatically by the aerocom tools, use the script located at **models/atm/cam/tools/aerocom/** in the svn repository. The script prepares files such that the idl aerocom tools prepare plots for the aerocom webinterface:
 +[[http://aerocom.met.no/cgi-bin/aerocom/surfobs_annualrs.pl?PROJECT=NorESM&MODELLIST=NorESM&FULL=explicit&INFO=nohover&PERFORMANCE=ind&YEARFILTER=ALLYEARS&PSFILTER=ALLVARS&Type0=ZONALOBS&Ref0=AERONETSun&Run0=CAM53-Oslo_r773bNudge_151215AG_PD_DMS_733b&Parameter0=OD550_AER&Station0=WORLD&Year0=an9999&Period0=mALLYEAR | URL link to NorESM on AeroCom webinterface]]
 +
 +The script requires <ModelName>_<ExperimentName> and <Period> as input.
 +
 +<Period>: for a climatological average and run choose 9999 , for nudged simulations choose the year of the meteorology
 +
 +<ModelName>_<ExperimentName>: is the dataset identifier under which the plots appear on the AeroCom webinterface \\ 
 +of the form NorESM-CAM5_svn{RevisionNumber}_YYMMDD{initials}_Freetext. \\
 +Example: "NorESM-CAM5_svn1094_151201AG_CMIP6endelig" \\
 +Initials AG: Alf Grini, AK: Alf Kirkevåg, DO: Dirk Olivie...
 +
 +The script creates files named like
 +
 +“aerocom3_<ModelName>_<ExperimentName>_<VariableName>_<VerticalCoordinateType>_<Period>_<Frequency>.nc”
 +
 +<ModelName> ⇒ eg NorESM-CAM53 \\
 +<ExperimentName> ⇒ svn{RevisionNumber}_YYMMDD{initials}_Freetext \\
 +<VariableName> ⇒ aerocom variable names \\
 +<VerticalCoordinateType> ⇒ “Surface”, “Column”, “ModelLevel”, “SurfaceAtStations”, “ModelLevelAtStations” \\
 +<Period> ⇒ eg “2008”, “2010”, "9999" \\
 +<Frequency> ⇒ “timeinvariant”,”hourly”, “daily”, “monthly”, “sat1000”, “sat1330”, “sat2200”, “sat0130” \\
 +
 +Note that VerticalCoordinateType is dependent on the variable!! It is not a question about "vertical coordinate type used in model simulations"!
 +
 +The script copies files on norstore into
 +**/projects/NS2345K/CAM-Oslo/DO_AEROCOM/<ModelName>_<ExperimentName>/renamed/**
