MONARCH: Multiscale Online Nonhydrostatic AtmospheRe CHemistry model
====================================================================
The Multiscale Online Nonhydrostatic AtmospheRe CHemistry model (MONARCH) is a chemical weather prediction system, formerly known as NMMB/BSC-CTM, that can be run either globally or regionally. MONARCH, developed at the [Barcelona Supercomputing Center](https://www.bsc.es/), is based on the online coupling of the meteorological Nonhydrostatic Multiscale Model on the B-grid (NMMB) with a full aerosol-chemistry module. The NMMB model was developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration - Environmental Modeling Center (NOAA/EMC) and distributed on an AS IS basis, without warranties or conditions of any kind, to the Barcelona Supercomputing Center through a Memorandum of Understanding.
The main characteristics of MONARCH are as follows:
- Nonhydrostatic meteorological core allowing both global and regional simulations with embedded telescoping nests.
- Gas-aerosol chemistry packages to solve the tropospheric chemistry of the atmosphere.
- Different meteorology-driven emissions computed on-line: mineral dust, sea salt and biogenic gas species.
- Multiple mineral dust and sea salt source functions available.
- Aerosol-radiation-interaction available.
- Interface with the emission model HERMESv3 to allow rapid deployment of new emission inventories.
- Data assimilation capability coupling MONARCH with a local ensemble transform Kalman filter (LETKF) scheme.
