add more chemical mixing ratios to the standard plotting routines

Issue #462 resolved
Jens-Uwe Grooß created an issue

There are more chemical compounds that should be part of the standard setup of the MSS plotting routines (utils.py). They currently contain the following parameters:

  "mole_fraction_of_carbon_monoxide_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_carbon_dioxide_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_carbon_tetrachloride_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_chlorine_nitrate_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_cfc11_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_cfc113_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_cfc12_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_ethane_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_formaldehyde_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_hcfc22_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_methane_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_nitric_acid_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_nitrous_oxide_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_nitrogen_dioxide_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_nitrogen_monoxide_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_ozone_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_peroxyacetyl_nitrate_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_sulfur_dioxide_in_air",
    "mole_fraction_of_water_vapor_in_air",

I propose to also add

for spec in [u'ClOx', u'HCl', u'ClONO2'', u'OClO', u'BrO', u'BrONO2', u'CH3Br', 'H1211', 'H1301']:

‌ 'mole_fraction_of_' + spec + '_in_air'

that are currently used in the SouthTRAC campaign. I propose (as above) rather to use the chemical formulas than the names of the molecules, even though that may not be consistent with the pre-defined standard names. Seems easier than

[u'active_chlorine', ‘hydrogen_chloride’,'chlorine_nitrate', …] but I don’t insist on that.
