  1. Sensitivity simulations, Oslo Results

  2. OsloCTM2, 100 species, bothstratospheric and tropospheicchemistry Coarse grid 19/40/60 vertical layers Standard grid High resolution

  3. Methane simulations • Methane lowest model layer forced to observed concentrations. Global monthly atmospheric methane loss (CH4+OH) derived. • Methane emissions: Bousquet (inversion Nature 2005) (Results from similar simulations with all models in hymn database spring 2008) Emissions scaled to assure close balance (avoid drift over time in methane): Bousquet=Loss=494 Tg/yr 3. Methane emissions: Anthropogenic: IIASA, ”Biogenic”: LPJ, Biomass burning: GFED Also scaled: IAASA+LPJ+GFED= Bousquet=Loss Global total emissions in 2 and 3 equal. But different distributions and amounts regionally

  4. Monthly mean modelled distributions for 2004 from the OsloCTM2 model versus Monthly mean surface observations for 2004

  5. Surface CH4 January Bousquet IIASA+GFED+LPJ

  6. Surface CH4 April Bousquet IIASA+GFED+LPJ

  7. Surface CH4 July Bousquet IIASA+GFED+LPJ

  8. Surface CH4 October Bousquet IIASA+GFED+LPJ

  9. Ethane column surface-500 hpa April 2004 (movie)

  10. BjørnWirkola won the Four Hills Tournament and the competitions in Garmisch from 1967 to 1969. The common parlance expression jumping after Wirkola has come to refer to situations where one embarks on a task where one's predecessor has done a particularly good job – or where one is unlikely to succeed.
