Task Force Hemispheric Transport of Air Pollution Multi-Model Data Archive

To develop a fuller understanding of intercontinental transport of air pollution in the Northern Hemisphere, the Executive Body of the UNECE Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (LRTAP Convention) established the Task Force on Hemispheric Transport of Air Pollution (TF HTAP) to plan and conduct the technical work necessary to develop a fuller understanding of the hemispheric transport of air pollution and estimate the hemispheric transport of specific air pollutants. The TF HTAP is conducting a series of multi-model evaluation and intercomparison experiments to produce estimates of intercontinental source-receptor relationships and assess potential future changes, improve our understanding of the variability and uncertainty in current model estimates and guide future model developments to decrease uncertainties. The model intercomparison and evaluation results are archived at a central data server at Forschungszentrum J?lich, Germany. They are made available via an OGC
