Welcome to MarChemSpec (Trace Species Model)
--------------------------------------------

The files in this distribution are version 1.01a of the model (February 2024).


This is how to get started:


1. When you have extracted the files from this archive the directory (folder) above 
   this one will be your working directory. It contains the MCS program, and its 
   input and output files.

2. Read the List_of_files_{version} document, which is in the same directory as this 
   file, so that you understand what the different files are.

3. Open the manual (MCS_trace_manual_{version}), which is in the same directory as 
   this file, and read the section "Installing MARCHEMSPEC", to make sure you have 
   done everything correctly.

4. Read the section "Quick Start" in the manual to carry out your first calculation.
   The results files already present in the working directory are for the 
   calculation described in this section of the manual. Running the model again will
   overwrite them (which is OK).
