average AOD at 550 nm
- Slide 5
- Model intercomparison: AERONET comparison 5 AERONET The
AERONET-Level 2 comparison shows that the set of models are capable
to reproduce the most important events in the Mediterranean, with a
large range of AOD 550 values associated to the maximum
concentrations. Barcelona Avignon Lampedusa Palma de Mallorca The
models generally underestimate the peak AOD, especially during the
intense late June event.
- Slide 6
- Model intercomparison: AERONET comparison 6 NOTE: The
statistics are calculated applying a dust filter to the AERONET
observations observations: Angstrom Exponent 440-870nm 1.2 is a
non-dust situation and the corresponding observed AOD = 0. The rest
of the cases are not considered. AERONET The AERONET statistical
comparison shows that in general the set of models are capable to
reproduce the seasonal variability with correlation > 0.6
(except for the climate model RegCM). RegCM and ALADIN-CCM are not
forced by meteorological fields every 24 hours BarcelonaPalma de
