Scientific questions

1. How is the model capable to reproduce observed O3 production and loss rates (focus on the North Atlantic/Europe area) ?

2. To what extent long-range transport modify these chemical terms?

Perturbation of O3 chemical terms by long range transport

Preliminary conclusion

ACSOE: O3 production is overestimated, specially < 4 km O3 loss is underestimated, specially < 3 km

Next step: Examine sensitivity of O3 production and loss rates

1. To different parameters: - relative humidity - J-value - heterogeneous reactions on aerosols

2. Using outputs from another 3D global model (MOZECH – collaboration with M. Schultz, MPI-Hamburg)

3. Use the ICARTT/ITOP data

EXPORT: O3 net production is overestimated in upper troposphere
