CAMS Policy Support Uptake of emissions inventories including condensable in CAMS products The CAMS Air Control Tool (ACT ) Training session Augustin Colette (INERIS, FR) Atmosphere Monitoring June 29th, 2021
The issue Atmosphere Monitoring • The emission factors for PM emissions resulting from combustion processes can include: – Only the filterable fraction (A) – All the consensable fraction (B) – In between (C) • The range of uncertainty is especially Simpson, D., et al., 2020, How should condensables be included large for residential heating (wood in PM emission inventories reported to EMEP/CLRTAP? MSC-W Technical Report 4/2020 burning) https://emep.int/publ/reports/2020/emep_mscw_technical_r eport_4_2020.pdf
The issue Atmosphere • The rate of PM emission per unit of wood differs: Monitoring – Between countries – Between reporting years for a given country – Compared to TNO « science based » consistent inventory (REF2) • Denier van der Gon, et al., ACP, 2015 D. Simpson, TFMM 2021 Meeting
Consequences for modellers Atmosphere Monitoring PM2.5 : EC wood burning / PM2.5: • systematic low bias • sharp country discrepancies • No outstanding country effect
Eurodelta-Carb Atmosphere Monitoring • Joint EMEP-TFMM/CAMS multi- model intercomparison • Based on EMEP/ACTRIS/COLOSSAL Intensive Measurement Period : Dec 2017 - Feb 2018 • 11 Participating models: – EMEP/MSC-W, Lotos-Euros, Eurad- IM, IFS, MINNI, DEHM, MONARCH, MATCH, CHIMERE, SILAM, WRF- CHEM
Eurodelta-Carb Atmosphere Monitoring • Increase in PM2.5 concentrations in several countries (ex: FR, PL, AT, DE), when including condensables PM2.5 in REF1 (official) PM2.5 in REF2 (TNO)
Eurodelta-Carb Atmosphere Monitoring • Improvement of the negative PM2.5 negative bias for all models On average over all European countries the PM10 bias is reduced by 22%
Eurodelta-Carb Atmosphere Monitoring EC wood burning / PM2.5 in REF1: EC wood burning / PM2.5 in REF2: sharp country discrepancies country discrepancies vanish J. Tokaya, TNO
Eurodelta-Carb Atmosphere Monitoring • Comparison with EMEP/ACTRIS/COLOSSAL field campaing – Share of wood burning from Aethalometer PMF (S. Platt, NILU) – The systematic overestimation of EC_wb is reduced when including (OC) condensables in REF2
Wrap-up Atmosphere Monitoring • Consistent condensable from wood burning emissions should be included in CAMS Regional Production: – Evidence-based emission improvement • Strong collaboration with CAMS_81 – Performances of the CAMS_50 Regional Ensemble: • Improvement of model KPI: 15% for RMSE – Evaluation: • Comparison with in situ source apportionment limits the risk of compensation of errors • Nice example of synergy with EMEP/ACTRIS/COLOSSAL, also supported by CAMS_61 – Consistency with modelling supporting Policy • Joint modelling exercise with EMEP/TFMM • REF2 also used by CAMS_71 (Policy Service) and EMEP/LRTAP MSC-W products REF2 entered in CAMS_50 operational production June 8th 2021
AC T: Ai r Co nt rol To o l b ox Atmosphere Monitoring • Web-based fast response scenario forecasting – Applies to every-day forecast – Accounting for the complexity of atmospheric chemistry & long range transport – Allow a user to explore « on the fly » any mitigation scenario • Operational since June 2018 – policy.atmosphere.copernicus.eu => Air Control Toolbox – Documentation https://gmd.copernicus.org/preprints/gmd-2020-433/
Linearity of the AQ response to emissions Atmosphere Monitoring • PM10 sensitivity: December 1st, 2016 – Air quality response to emission change can be very simple: linear or 2nd order polynomial fits well uniform sectoral emission reductions – BUT: this relationship needs to be updated at each grid point and every day to full CTM simulations => automated machine learning
How does it work? Atmosphere • Main steps: Monitoring – Training data set: Atmospheric Chemisty • 12 Chimere scenarios run on High Performance Computer • Reference + reductions : 60% Traffic, 100% Traffic, 60% Agri, 100% Agri, 100%Agri and 100 Traffic, etc… – Automated daily machine learning: Surrogate Model • Fit a 2nd order, 4 dimension polynomial regression model • At each grid point • For each forecast day • For each species – Upload the statistical regression on a fast web-tool User flexibility
Surrogate AQ models Atmosphere Monitoring Structure Species Temporal Emission resolution Concentration resolution EMEP SRM Linear SOMO35, PM25, Annual Country Grid (~20km) Deposition SHERPA Linear PM2.5, NO2 Annual 7km 7km ACT Non-linear O3max, PM10, PM2.5, Daily Europe Grid (~20km) NO2 • The main structural difference between ACT and SHERPA or EMEP SRM is the non- linearity, which allows capturing any change in emissions between 0 and 100% • This design is made possible by : – Assuming homogeneous reductions in Europe – Relying on operational production of a dozen daily scenarios: automated learning
