  1. Working Group 2: Integrated systems of MetM and CTM/ADM: strategy, interfaces and module unification The overall aim of WG2 is to identify the requirements for the unification of MetM and CTM/ADM modules and to propose recommendations for a European strategy for integrated mesoscale modelling capability.

  2. WG2 activities: • Overview of existing integrated (off-line and on-line) systems in Europe and outside Europe. • Identification of the advantages and disadvantages of strategies for integrating of MetMs and CTM/ADMs. • Development ofguidance and strategy for on-line coupling of MetMs and CTM/ADMs and for their off-line interfacing. • Overview of existing module structures of MetMs and CTM/ADMs, along with recommendations and requirements for module unification. • Formulation of requirements of mesoscale MetMs suitable as input to air pollution models and improved meteorological pre-processors and model interfaces, including deposition processes, capable of connecting mesoscale MetM results to CTM/ADMs. • Recommended methods for the model down-scaling and nesting, as well as assimilation techniques. • Identifying requirements (including observation data needs) for an integrated mesoscale modelling capability/strategy for Europe.

  3. WG2 Deliverables: • Overview of existing integrated (off-line and on-line) mesoscale systems. • Overview of existing module structures of MetMs and CTM/ADMs, recommendations and requirements for module unification. • Requirements of meso-scale MetMs suitable as input to CTM/ADMs, assessment of meteorological pre-processors and model interfaces between MetMs and CTM/ADMs. • Recommended methods for the model down-scaling and nesting, as well as assimilation techniques. • Requirements for an integrated mesoscale modelling capability/strategy for Europe, including data needs.

  9. WG2 plan for the first year (a very optimistic version) • Status report from WG2 members: models, systems, approaches (model database and EoCs) • WG2 expertise and potential contributions (EoCs) • WG2 web-site presentation • WP2 strategy and working plan • First draft overview of the current status • Links to other WGs and projects

  10. Inputs to the Activity: Inputs to the activity will include data and information on • CTM and Met models, used and developed in different countries, • their experience of model integration, as well as • existing module interface structures. As to data requirements, it would include • meteorological data, • chemical pollutant data as well as • emission inventories for selected pollutants (such as NOx, VOCs and PM10).

  11. Definitions of integrated/coupled models Definitions of off-line models: • separate CTMs driven by meteorological input data from meteo-preprocessors, measurements or diagnostic models, • separate CTMs driven by analysed or forecasted meteodata from NWP archives or datasets, • separate CTMs reading output-files from operational NWP models or specific MetMs with a limited periods of time (e.g. 1, 3, 6 hours). Definitions of on-line models: • on-line access models, when meteodata are available at each time-step (it could be via a model interface as well), • on-line integration of CTM into MetM, when feedbacks are possible to consider. We will use this definition as the on-line coupled models.

  12. Models included in the COST728 model database:

  31. Why we need to build the European integration strategy? NWP models are not primarily developed for CTM/ADMs and there is no tradition for strong co-operation between the groups for meso/local-scale the conventional concepts of meso- and urban-scale AQ forecasting need revision along the lines of integration of MetM and CTM US example (The models 3, WRF-Chem) A number of European models … A universal modelling system (like ECMWF in EU or WRF-Chem in US) ??? an open integrated system with fixed architecture (module interface structure) European mesoscale MetM/NWP communities: • ECMWF • HIRLAM • COSMO • ALADIN/AROME • UM --------- • WRF • MM5 • RAMS European CTM/ADMs: • a big number • problem oriented • not harmonised (??) • …..
