  1. PROMOTE 2General project overview&Focus on Air Quality Services Eleni Paliouras www.gse-promote.org

  2. Background • GMES is a joint EC and European Space Agency Initiative • GMES Service Element projects (GSE) are one form of ESA support for GMES • Stage 1 (“Consolidation”) projects were conducted to evaluate mature and near-mature operational services existing within Europe • PROMOTE 1, one of 13 projects, ended in 2005 • Stage 2 (“Implementation”) projects aim to scale-up Stage 1 services and add to them • PROMOTE 2 started in July 2006

  3. User Focus • Service Level Agreements (SLAs) signed with 35 user organizations (23 more under preparation) • Local, regional and national public agencies • State and federal environmental agencies (D, A, IR, UK, F, B, NL, I, CH, FI) • National meteorological institutes (DWD) • International Organizations • WMO • ECMWF • NILU/EMEP • User Federating Groups • Professional Society of German Dermatologists • European Environmental Agency • SPARC-CCMVal: Climate Modelling Validation

  4. PROMOTE2 Decentralized network of integrated services, structured along „demand“ PROMOTE2 Service Portfolio Stage 2 Public Sector Information Citizen Information • European/global products • Scientific standards • Numbers, records • Aimed at mandated bodies • Provided by GSE • Add value to Public Sector • Information Services • Local/regional products • Easy to understand • Images, Text Messages • Intermediate providers

  5. Public Sector Information Citizen Information Ozone Column Records Ozone Column NRT Forecasts European local UV Information Service Ozone Profile Records Regional / Local Air Quality Forecasts UV Records Air Quality Records Integrated European Air Quality Analysis & Forecasts European Pollen Forecasts Local/Regional Air Quality Aviation Control Support Greenhouse Gases & Aerosol Records Particulate Matter Desert Dust Detection and Awareness

  6. Public Sector Information Citizen Information Ozone Column Records Ozone Column NRT Forecasts European local UV Information Service Ozone Profile Records Regional / Local Air Quality Forecasts UV Records Air Quality Records Integrated European Air Quality Analysis & Forecasts European Pollen Forecasts Uraban/Regional AQ Assessment Aviation Control Support Greenhouse Gases & Aerosol Records Particulate Matter Desert Dust Detection and Awareness

  7. Air Quality Records Service • Analyzed model records based on satellite and ground measurements (3Dvar assimilation) • Global NO2 and HCHO, 1995-2008 • Europe (45km^2) NO2, CO, PM10, SO2, HCHO, O3 , 2002-8 • Participating organisations • Service Providers, Research : RIU, KNMI, DLR, BIRA, U Bremen • Users: Landesumweltamt NRW, UBA-Ö, EMPA, EPA-Ie

  8. 3Dvar Aerosol Assimilation (14.7.2003) Biomass burning case in Spain (July 2003)

  9. European Integrated Air Quality Analysis & Forecast • Numerical forecast and a posteriori maps and data of pollutant concentrations from at least 3 CTMs • Assimilating in situ and satellite data • Europe (50km^2) NO2, PM10, O3 • Daily upgrades of analyses and 3-day forecasts • Participating organisations • Service Providers, Research: Prev’air consortium, RIU, KNMI, DLR, ACRI, BIRA, TNO, FMI • Users: AIRPARIF, Landesumweltamt NRW, UBA-Ö, EEA, EPA-Ie

  10. Urban/Regional Air Quality Assessment • Scenario tool for regional air quality policy support through simulations of population exposure to air pollution • Hindcast, not a forecast • Urban : 70 km, x  1 km, full year / hourly resolution • Regional :700 km, x  10 km, episodes / hourly resolution • Concentration fields for PM10, O3, NO2, SO2, ... • Participating organisations • Service Providers, Research: VITO, GeoID • Users: IRCEL – Belgium

  11. Local and Regional Air Quality Forecasts • Air quality forecasts resolving local features (1,000m-5m) for 100+ million European citizens incorporating assimilated satellite and in-situ observations • O3, NO2, SO2, CO, PM10, PM2.5, Benzene, Air Quality Indices • Participating organisations • Service Providers: CERC, KNMI, DLR, VITO, ACRI, RIU, FMI • Users: Landesumweltamt NRW & MVP, RIVM, 14 London Boroughs, Air Alpes Méditerrannée, Inter-regional Cell for the Environment, EMPA, CHU Nice, Helsinki City Council, Met office Turkey, EPA-IE, IRCEL, City of Budapest

  12. European Pollen Concentration Observation & Forecast • Pan-European platform harmonizing use of EO in modelling of pollen forecasts • Daily maps vertically integrated concentrations of different taxa with associated probabilities of occurrence • Project Plan • Year 1: 4 months over 2 large areas (aeriobiological consistency) • Year 2: 8 months over 2 large areas (aeriobiological consistency) • Year 3: Europe coverage of 8 months • Participating organisations • Service Providers: ACRI, FMI • Users: CHU – Nice, Coparly/RNSA, European Aeroallergen Network

  13. PM Assessments from Satellite Data • Demonstration of satellite-based capability for PM monitoring (SCIAMACHY/AATSR, MODIS) • PM10, PM2.5, PM1.0 (separated by major components) • Daily monitoring in Northern Italy from MODIS • Multi-annual PM records in Europe from ENVISAT • Stringent validation with EMEP data; inter-comparison of both sub-services • Participating organisations • Service Providers, Research: DLR, CGS, RIU, FMI, U Galway • Users: NILU, ARPA-L, ARPA-P
