Replicating Aerosol Forcing Runs from CESM to E3SM

[jazweifel]

Hi all,

I'm working on replicating some existing simulations I have done on CESM now to E3SM. In CESM I had altered these 11 SO2/SO4 external forcing and surface emissions specifiers to various climatological values. I am wondering what are the e3sm equivalents to these files?

For the climatological defaults (i.e., present-day) see here: https://github.com/E3SM-Project/E3SM/blob/master/components/eam/bld/namelist_files/use_cases/2010_eam_CMIP6_chemUCI-Linoz-mam5-vbs.xml

for the transient defaults (i.e., something like transient AMIP or a historical run), see here: https://github.com/E3SM-Project/E3SM/blob/master/components/eam/bld/namelist_files/use_cases/20TR_eam_CMIP6.xml

if you want the "agreed-upon" climatological defaults for PI, we've used the ones below.
