1 Topics for MPI-C Collaborations with the COPS-TRACKS Initiative Mark Lawrence, Marc Salzmann, Horst Fischer Cloud Resolving Chemistry-Transport Modelling –WRF (Weather Research and Forecast Model) –Full gas-phase tropospheric chemistry implemented –Regions: Maritime (TOGA COARE) and Continental (ARM, STERAO) –Studies (  SFB 641 – The Tropospheric Ice Phase): Convective tracer transport Scavenging (especially by ice), Retention coefficient Lightning NO x production MPI-C Field Campaigns: Tropospheric Chemistry Over Europe

2 Tropospheric Chemistry Over Europe HO x Budget Long Range Transport (Import and Export) Vertical Transport (Deep Convection) Latitudinal Gradients of Trace Gases Seasonal Variations H. Fischer, H. Harder, J. Williams, M. Lawrence and J. Lelieveld MPI-Chemistry, Mainz, Germany

3 CO 2 H 2 O PTR-MS NO, NOx, O 3 MPI-C: Lear-Jet Payload 1.J NO 2, canisters, cartridges 2.HOx Detection Axis HO x CO/HCHO H 2 O 2 /ROOH A A B B Inlet A: CO/HCHO/H2O2, H 2 O/CO 2 Inlet B: PTR-MS, NO, O 3, NOx
