OH fields in KNMI, UiO & LSCE models P. Bousquet, Sophie Szopa, Isabelle Pison M. Van Weele, S.B.Dalsoren, + other HYMN partners
Outline • OH on the vertical • OH maps • Zona l time series HYMN, Paris meeting, 7-8 April 2008
Comparison set up • Each group runs ~ the same emissions scenarios • Year 2004 • OH is interactive in each model • Daily outputs on the 3D matrix (monthly for UiO) • Vertical interpolation on 5 vertical layers • Horizontal grid change with mass conservation HYMN, Paris meeting, 7-8 April 2008

Some conclusions • Differences between OH fields at daily scale stay beyond ±10% at zonal scale (KNMI/LSCE) • Differences in troposphere max location between between the 3 models : LSCE ~ >900 hPa KNMI ~ 800 hPa UiO ~ 700 hPa • Phasing differences between LMDZ and (KNMI, UiO) due to northern hemisphere HYMN, Paris meeting, 7-8 April 2008
