• Co-organised by Ministry of Environment

• followed by a user day for C3S

• 67 participants

• rather new national CAMS user community

• role of CAMS services: concerns about possible duplication of work between the Copernicus services and national meteo / climate services

• new user requirements

– need more information on use of CAMS in the European Air Quality Index

– need to provide IFS meteorological data with the same open policy

– need for emission data in local scale

– need for emission data temporal evolution

• Participants were inspired to begin working with CAMS


C A M S u s e r w o r k s h o p i n S w e d e n

• Co-organised with national EPA and Met service

• experienced national CAMS user community

• 33 participants

• substantial requirements input

• Deposition repeatedly mentioned

• specific issues of Nordic countries discussed

– low pollution / 1-2 km hot spots not well covered by CAMS 10km data

– only few in situ hourly measurement stations (esp. for NO2)

• needs for evolving the national Swedish community in relation to CAMS (e.g. organizing an all-Sweden 1km forecast)


C A M S p o l i c y u s e r w o r k s h o p w i t h F A I R M O D E

• back-to-back with the plenary meeting of the FAIRMODE community

• growing experience in the use of the CAMS policy products enables an informed discussion on the advantages and limitations of these productsat national, regional and urban level

• hands-on testing session to understand better how to use the CAMS products for policy applications

• discuss participatory activities to increase the uptake of CAMS policyproducts by the policy user community

• On-line questionnaire before

• CAMS Air Control Tool (ACT)

• Feedback by CAMS users

• Air pollution management

• Episode analysis
