Welcome to the ICON-ART Wiki! ICON-ART is a state-of-the-science seamless model system for the whole atmosphere (physics and composition) that comprises the key components of the next generation Earth system model in Germany. ICON is a global weather and climate model that solves the full three-dimensional non-hydrostatic and compressible Navier-Stokes equations on an icosahedral grid and allows seamless predictions from local to global scales. Aerosol and Reactive Trace gases (ART), as a submodule of ICON, supplements the model by including emissions, transport, gas phase chemistry and aerosol dynamics in the troposphere and stratosphere (as seen in Capabilities of ICON-ARTs).

ICON-ART (Aerosol and Reactive Trace gases interactions) is a sub-module of the ICON Model and can be used to simulate emissions, transport, gas phase chemistry, and aerosol dynamics in the troposphere and stratosphere. Before using ICON-ART you need some experience using the ICON model, and to make best use of the articles on this wiki some fluency with using ICON is required. Further information about the usage of ICON can be found in the ICON Model Tutorial.
