1. Chemistry/Aerosol budget Tables

Tables / Chemistry of ANN global budgets

https://github.com/NCAR/ADF/issues/236

To do: check against NCL script for correct calculations

2. Zonal Average comparisons between model runs.

Vertical Contour Plots contour plots of DJF, MAM, JJA, SON and ANN zonal means

List of species to evaluate: TBD

3. Ozone climatology comparison to observations

Profiles, seasonal cycles and Taylor diagrams

https://github.com/NCAR/ADF/issues/281

Code re-submitted for addition to the ADF main branch with Taylor Diagrams now included in code along with the seasonal cycle and profile plotsNow in the main branch.  Has one minor text error with the case name and/or nickname labels that will be addressed in a later fix.

4. Column comparison to satellite observations

Lat/lon comparisons for
(a) MOPITT carbon monoxide
(b) OMI/MLS ozone
(c) MODIS aerosol optical depth

(a) CO: https://github.com/NCAR/ADF/issues/235

(b) O₃: https://github.com/NCAR/ADF/issues/242

(c) AOD: https://github.com/NCAR/ADF/issues/302

5. Vertical profile comparisons to observations

(a) NOAA aircraft campaigns

6. Surface comparisons to observations

(a) IMPROVE network

7.  Water vapor tape recorder

https://github.com/NCAR/ADF/issues/332

To do: Adjust default color table so that the upper end of the table saturates at 4 or 5 e-6 kg/kg instead of 3Color table adjusted to 1.5 - 3.5.  Currently changed in pull request #339.

8.  Composition difference plots

https://github.com/NCAR/ADF/issues/331To do: Change variable to % difference

Pull request #339 initiated.
