JRC- Brussels- PF JRC Brussels 3 TF HTAP, Washington DC, JRC Brussels3 Some IT Aspects: Used SRB server The SDSC Storage Resource Broker (SRB) is client-server middleware that provides a uniform interface for connecting to heterogeneous data resources over a network and accessing replicated data sets. In practice we used UNIX based access; there was not a good way for common access to all data from ‘other users’ Data were processed by ‘authors’; using own software. e.g. IDL regridding tools from Martin Schultz (not entirely bug-free). i.e. regridding: oldgrid = Obj_New('MGS_RGrid', gridname='GEOS') newgrid = Obj_New('MGS_RGrid', gridname='1x1a')

Common visualization tool (IDL based) Analysis during workshops- and further analysis in small working groups, work load ). 4 persons ca. half a year. Main Results: Estimate of model variability and of sensitivity to emission reduction in 2020 (CLE/MFR). Remarks: More stringent harmonization of boundary conditions and of natural emissions would be desirable; better description/and knowledge of what is included in each model; source code + documentation.

Emphasis on climate; quantitative process understanding of aerosol formation and removal processes. Systematic use of current satellite measurement programmes surface based network data. Participation from CTMs and GCMs meteorological data for Simulations : 3 experiments: 1) AEROCOM-A models as they are, meteorology for 1996/1997/2000/2001; 2) AEROCOM-B using year 2000 prescribed sources 2000 meteorological fields or climatological mode 3) AEROCOM PRE using pre-industrial prescribed sources (y 1750) meteo year 2000 and/or in climatological mode Emissions : 1°x1° emission datasets from various groups: OC-BC (Tami Bond); SO2 (IIASA) (annual average); SO2 volcanoes (GEIA/update); Simplified SOA source function.Recommendations on height distributions; no temporal distribution, except biomass burning.
