This review paper provides a framework for the application of the Observing System Simulation
Experiment (OSSE) methodology to satellite observations of atmospheric constituents …

Long-term ozone simulations from seven regional air quality models, the Unified EMEP
model, LOTOS-EUROS, CHIMERE, RCG, MATCH, DEHM and TM5, are intercompared and …

Nitrate is an important component of (secondary inorganic) fine aerosols in Europe. We present
a model simulation for the year 1995 in which we account for the formation of secondary …

We present a model simulation for the year 1995 accounting for primary particles, which are
an important component of fine aerosols over Europe. A new emission inventory for black …

Recently several regional air quality projects were carried out to support the negotiation under
the Clean Air For Europe (CAFE) programme by predicting the impact of emission control …

The development and application of chemistry transport models has a long tradition. Within
the Netherlands the LOTOS–EUROS model has been developed by a consortium of institutes…

Modelled ozone concentrations often differ from measured concentrations quite substantially,
partly due to measurement errors, but mainly due to uncertainties in the model. Modelling …

An intercomparison of nine chemical mechanisms (eg ADOM, CBM-IV, EMEP, RADM2) as
used by 12 contributing groups was conducted. The results for three scenarios are presented …

Fine particulate matter (PM) is relevant for human health and its components are associated
with climate effects. The performance of chemistry transport models for PM, its components …

The impact of large cities on air pollution levels usually is determined with models driven by
so-called downscaled emission inventories. This implies that annual emissions of air …
