SIMULATION SETUP
- 42 hours from 2001/02/07 12UT
- 2 nested gridsGrid 1: 20 km horizontal resolutionGrid 2: 4 km horizontal resolution
- 61 vertical levels from surface to 30km altitude (500m in the UTLS)
- Initialisation from ERA40 analysis and radiosoundings
- Subgrid scale convective parameterization for Grid 1 from Freitas et al (2004)

Workshop Bauru 2004 6
CHEMISTRY SETUP
-29 species and 71 reactions
- Gaseous and aqueous chemistry
- Surface emissions of ozone precursors
- Parametrization of NOx production by lightning
- Initialisation from MOCAGE (Météo-France) global fields
STEP 2: SIMULATION WITH ON-LINE CHEMISTRY
