Bias correction techniques to improve air quality ensemble predictions: focus o...
Monteiro, A.; Ribeiro, I.; Tchepel, O.; Sá, E.; Ferreira, J.; Carvalho, A.; Martins, V.; Strunk, A.; Galmarini, S.; Elbern, H.; Schaap, M.; Builtjes, P.Five air quality models were applied over Portugal for July 2006 and used as ensemble members. Each model was used, with its original set up in terms of meteorology, parameterizations, boundary conditions and chemical mechanisms, but with the same emission data. The validation of the individual models and the ensemble of ozone (O-3) and particulate matter (PM) is performed using monitoring data from 22 backgrou...
The ACCENT-protocol: a framework for benchmarking and model evaluation
Grewe, V.; Moussiopoulos, N.; Builtjes, P.; Borrego, C.; Isaksen, I. S. A.; Volz-Thomas, A.We summarise results from a workshop on “Model Benchmarking and Quality Assurance” of the EU-Network of Excellence ACCENT, including results from other activities (e.g. COST Action 732) and publications. A formalised evaluation protocol is presented, i.e. a generic formalism describing the procedure of how to perform a model evaluation. This includes eight steps and examples from global model applications which...
