The scripts support both variants of WRF-CHEM vertical levels - the sigma levels (default until WRF version 3.*) and the hybrid levels (default since WRF 4.*). However, it is necessary to correctly configure this option via the setting `wrf_hybrid_levs = True/False`.

### Major Changes from wrf + CAMx scripts made to wrf_chem_for_palm
#### Major Changes from wrf + CAMx scripts made to wrf_chem_for_palm
- Proj future warning resolved
- Chemical species are read from wrf-chem files and interpolated at the same time as the dynamic variables
- Interpolated files are saved to a different directory than the wrf-chem data files
