AQMEII / HTAP Workshop on Regional and Global Modeling

30 October 2014, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina

Workshop Objectives

Review the objectives of the AQMEII3 and HTAP2 experiments and identify common areas of interest

Review the status of the HTAP2 experiments, the analysis schedule, and data management procedures

Define a timeline for AQMEII3 base case simulations and analysis activities

Identify scenarios to be modeled by AQMEII3 participants and develop a timeline for these simulations

Define an overall timeline, milestones, and expected outputs for the AQMEII3-HTAP2 collaboration.
