Monitoring Atmospheric Composition and Climate – InterimImplementation Monitoring Atmospheric Composition and Climate - Interim Implementation - is the current pre-operational atmospheric service of the European Copernicus programme. MACC provides data records on atmospheric composition for recent years, as well as data for monitoring present conditions and forecasts of the distribution of key constituents for a few days ahead. MACC-II combines state-of-the-art atmospheric modelling with Earth observation data to provide information services covering European Air Quality, Global Atmospheric Composition, Climate, and UV and Solar Energy.

Input data requirements and access • The services currently relies on a range of observing systems and observational products, which are used for assimilation and/or validation: • satellite data from ESA, EUMETSAT, NASA, NOAA, JMA negotiated directly (often as part of wider agreement between ECMWF and these agencies) ; assimilation, (verification). • satellite retrievals (project partners; other projects; direct contacts…) ; assimilation, (verification). • research in-situ data (project partners; specific agreements with networks/infrastructures as IAGOS, ICOS, ACTRIS, AERONET, EARLINET, WMO/GAW, institutions…) ; (assimilation/anchor), verification. • air quality data in Europe (via the EEA and/or national environment agencies) ; assimilation, verification. • Dedicated Sentinels 5p, 4 and 5 in the future (2015, 2019, >2020). • Observational data acquired by MACC-II is in general not redistributed in numerical form, but can be seen in e.g. verification reports, plots, etc…

Dissemination activity • Another key dimension of Copernicus services. Plots and images are all available from the copernicus-atmosphere website. • Three servers provide access to numerical data: • global analyses, forecasts and re-analyses (ECMWF) • OGC/WCS (web coverage service) global chemical boundary conditions (Research Centre Julich); air quality forecasts (DLR) • Pan-European air quality analyses and forecasts (Meteo-France) • Interaction with users is one of the larger work packages of MACC-II: agree and follow-up “Service Level Agreements”, organise users’sforaand training events (e.g. MACC-II summer school, 9-15 June 2013). • Users of numerical data have to register (simple).
Maturity and future R&D needs • How to bring an integrated vision on the Earth-System’s evolution over the past decades? • Build upon meteorological global re-analyses to set-up progressively a fully coupled system including ocean, biogeochemistry, sea ice and cryosphere, land surfaces, as well as atmospheric composition • Further develop regional re-analysis systems and downscaling tools • Assessments, impacts
