This paper benchmarks the MOGUNTIA chemistry in TM5-MP against CB05. Also it describes the impact of the KPP-based Rosenbrock solver that replaces the old EBI solver.

Figure 1: Simulated annual mean surface (a, c, e) and zonal mean (b, d, f) O3 mixing ratios (ppb) for the MOGUNTIA chemistry scheme for the year 2006 (a, b) and the respective differences compared to mCB05(KPP) (c, d); the surface and zonal mean absolute differences between mCB05(KPP) and mCB05(EBI) are also presented (e, f).
