2. TF HTAP • Substantive points: 1 • Confirm the findings of previous workshop (BB), highlighting some of the latest advances supporting the existance of HTAP, such as from space observations and modelling • The TF chairs outlined a number of policy-relevant science questions, which were revised; these would be the basis for the TF work plan over the next years

3. TF HTAP • Substantive points: 2 • Expectations of the nominated focal points • Supports the initiative, some representatives would like to focus on the issue of ozone and PM, others wished to maintain the broader perspective • Outcome of panels • Priorities of work in the different areas • Observations • Emissions (including shipping and aviation) • Modeling

4. TF HTAP • General objectives of TF Workplan (2005 to 2009) • Work towards assessment of evidence of HTAP • Models, inventory, and data intercomparison and evaluation • Model and observation based assessment • Connect to ongoing and future activities within UNECE and in other regions than UNECE

5. TF HTAP • Objectives of TF Workplan (2005 to 2006) • 3 Meetings • Fall 2005 Workshop to Develop a Model Intercomparison and Evaluation Protocol • Spring 2006 TF Meeting & Workshop on Emissions, Drivers & Scenarios • Fall 2006 Workshop on Use of Integrated Observations to Evaluate Models & Inventories • One of the 2006 meetings to be in Asia • Other Activities (connected to ongoing work) • Compilation of Metadata for Observational Datasets (CCC) • Compilation of Metadata for Emissions Inventories (?) • Report on Progress to EMEP Steering Body
