The purpose of this page is to document the procedure for adding support for new atmosphere grids. The process should be the same for new uniform resolutions as well as for new regionally-refined meshes, although some settings will need to be changed for new regionally-refined mesh configurations. This page is a work in progress, and will be updated as this process is refined and (eventually) made more automated. This documentation is an update of a document written by Mark Taylor and Colin Zarzycki, available as a Google Doc here.
