The whole-atmosphere chemistry (CheST) is currently still being tested, but essentially consists of a combination of the IsopTrop and StratChem chemistry schemes.

The aerosol-chemistry extensions to each of these schemes will be combined to give an aerosol-chemistry extension to CheST that will drive GLOMAP-mode.

The result will be a composition-climate model that includes whole-atmosphere chemistry coupled to the GLOMAP-mode aerosol microphysics.
