GIANT is a common interface allowing the exchange of information on aerosol state and properties between any host model (atmospheric model, Earth system model, or idealized driver) and any aerosol package. GIANT will leverage several ongoing community efforts such as MUSICA, which is aimed at coupling CAM physics driven by the SE, MPAS, or FV3 dynamical cores with CARMA and MAM aerosol packages, or EAGLES which is focused on coupling the improved MAM with the next generation E3SM written largely in C++ for exascale performance of convection-permitting simulations. As illustrated here, this effort will increase the portability of aerosol modules between community models. Aerosol chemistry modules contain aerosol processes such as coagulation, gas-particle partitioning, new particle formation, aerosol and cloud chemistry, aerosol optical properties, etc. Additional host models and aerosol chemistry modules are expected to join this effort in the future.
