Implementation of the Unified Post Processor (UPP) and the Model Evaluation Tools (MET) for WRF-chem evaluation performance

This study focuses on a detailed description of several modifications made in both the Unified Post-Processor (UPP) and the Model Evaluation Tools (MET) release packages, which are necessary in order to incorporate relevant chemical species and meteorological parameters into the verification process...
