Open to all publications related to the intercontinental transport of air pollution and providing answers to the HTAP Science Questions What fraction of air pollution can be attributed to contemporary anthropogenic regional emissions sources versus extra-regional, non-anthropogenic, or legacy sources of pollution? What is the contribution of each fraction to impacts on human health, ecosystems and climate change? How sensitive are regional pollution levels and related impacts to changes in regional versus extra-regional emission sources? How will the contributions of the fractions and their sensitivities change in the future as a result of expected air pollution abatement efforts or climate change? How do the availability, costs and impacts of additional emission abatement options compare across different regions? 1.6.1 Emissions & Projections ACCEPTED, HTAP Special Issue, 2015, basis for HTAP SR calculations 1.6.1 Emissions & Projections TF HTAP and TF IAM Discussion of scenarios Experts from emerging countries Benchmark scenarios Costs Shared conclusions: Scenarios illustrate/evaluate benefits of a cooperative hemispheric approach towards abating air pollution as compared to isolated national or regional approaches. 1.6.1 Emissions & Projections Benchmark Scenarios IIASA leveraging EU-funded projects - continuous process 3 scenarios with explicit levels of air pollution control: No Further Control, Current Legislation, Maximum Technologically Feasible Reductions One additional scenario based on IEA 450 ppm climate mitigation measures in Energy sector - August 2015 ECLIPSEv5 Section B3: EMEP draft Assessment Report (Z.

Mainly driven by EU sources, and compensating effects from NA and other regions Europe: CLE O 3 will increase after 2030 driven by CH 4. MFR: scope for O 3 reduction by 8-10 ppb, 60 % driven by external sources and CH 4. Overall Approach: Use global and regional simulations of to evaluate against observations and to contribute to the quantification of parameterized S/R relationships. Use parameterized S/R relationships to estimate impacts of future strategies.
