WP 312: Current chemical composition changes from different modes of transport Idea: QUANTIFY the effect of different means of transport on the current state of the atmosphere Setup: 1. Take a number of models (six) 2. same initialization, emissions etc … as far as possible 3. simulate current conditions (2003) (BASE) 4. sensitivity runs to investigate the effect of ROAD SHIP AIR ALL (ROAD + SHIP + AIR) -5% -5% -5% - 5% each 4. later upscaling to 100%
