Key references
Bey et al. [2001] is the first reference to GEOS-Chem that includes a detailed model description. It is suitable as an original reference for the model. It only describes a model for gas-phase tropospheric oxidant chemistry. Subsequent original references for major additional model features are:
Eastham et al. [2018] for the high-performance GEOS-Chem (GCHP);
Zhuang et al. [2019] for GEOS-Chem Classic on the cloud;
Zhuang et al. [2020] for GCHP on the cloud.
