LMDz-INCA: Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique GCM – INCA (Interaction with Chemistry and Aerosols) • Several horizontal resolutions are used for LMDz-INCA.The standard resolution is 96 long. X 72 lat. (3.75 X 2.5).Also used 160 X 98 (2.25 X 1.84). Zooming is also possible over a given region: typical resolution of (30-50 km)2. • Standard vertical resolution:19 hybrid -p levels (surface to 35 km).Also used: 50 hybrid levels (surface to 65 km). • Large scale advection of tracers:finite volume scheme from Van Leer [1977]using first-order polynomial to approximate the subgrid-scale tracer distribution. Also available: Prather (second order moments) and PPM (Piecewize Parabolic Method). • Convection:Tiedtke [1989]mass flux scheme, or Emanuel [1991] scheme; Boundary layer:local scheme-2nd order closure. • Chemistry:standard version for tropospheric ozone calculation including the methane oxidation cycle and NOx [45 tracers including long-lived greenhouse gases];tropospheric chemistry with NMHCs included [89 tracers]; aerosols (mineral, sea-salt, BC, OC, sulfur) [119 tracers].
Implementation of emissions • Non-transport anthropogenic emissions: EDGAR 3.2 Fast Track 2000 • CH4, NOx, SO2, CO and NMHCs • implementation of effective emission heights on RETRO levels (1 km) • Transport emissions: land-based transport: QUANTIFY emissions for road (DLR) EDGAR emissions for rail ship emissions: QUANTIFY emissions (DNV) aircraft emissions: AERO2K emissions (MMU - UCAM) • Biogenic emissions provided by the vegetation model ORCHIDEE
Introduction of new tracers • 6 artificial tracers: tracers with lifetimes of 1, 10 and 30 days emitted at land or sea surface 3 tracers for 14CO: global, stratosphere and troposphere 8 tracers for O3: explicit calculation: troposphere over North America, Europe and Asia, and Stratosphere • implicit calculation: from ground to 300 mb over North • America, Europe and Asia, and Stratosphere • Basic approach proposed by Volker Grewe:

Conclusions • Small impact of aircraft emissions on tropospheric ozone and weak seasonal variability of the perturbation fields. need for further investigations. • The choice of the convection scheme is relatively important. • Large and comparable impact of road and ship emissions on tropospheric ozone at surface. Perpectives • Improvements of some chemical and physical representations in LMDz-INCA: water vapour, convective flux… the run with all traffic emissions reduced by 5% will not be performed • Re-run of these 5 base runs.
