CHEMISTRY CLIMATE MODEL(CCM) DESCRIPTION
INM-RSHU CCM, 0-90km, 4x5 degree grid step
(Galin, Smyshlyev, Volodin, 2007)
GCM - INM RAS RSHU Chemical block
(74 gas species, 174 chemical reaction 46 reaction of
photodissociation)
INM model is participated in all IPCC report model evaluations of climate change (IPCC2013). INM-RSHU 3D model has been used for Ozone Assessment 2007 Report (Smyshlyaev et al., JGR, 1998, Galin, Smyshlyaev 2007 )
INPUT DATASET TO INM-RSHU CCM WERE SPECIFIED ACCORDING TO THE FOLLOWING SOURCES OVER THE 1979-2015 PERIOD:
❑Emissions of the ozone depleting substances (WMO, 2005, 2011)
❑Solar activity (DeWolfe et al., 2010) ❑Stratospheric aerosol (Thomason et al., 2006)
❑SST and ice coverage: ❑MetOffice (Rayner et al., 2003) ❑ERA-Interim (Dee et al., 2011) ❑SOCOL SST (Stenke, et al., 2013)
❑Greenhouse gases scenarios: A2 with A1B - for CH4.
METHOD FOR THE UV TREND EVALUATION
Cloud transmittance and its spectral correction according to [Chubarova et al.,2017]:
CQ=Q/Q(clear), CQery=f(CQir(hsun))

CORRECTION OF TOMS AND OMI DATA
The erythemal irradiance data of the satellite instruments TOMS and OMI were corrected on absorbing aerosol to obtain a homogeneous series from updated Macv2 dataset (S. Kinne, personal communication).
τext(λ) – aerosol optical thickness;
ω(λ) – single scattering albedo;
λ – wavelength.
Qery(base) – standard UV value; Qery(corrected) – corrected UV value; CF – correction factor.

CONCLUSIONS • We confirmed that the reason for the positive Qery trends due to
the reduction of ozone content (1-2%/10 years) over most Northern Eurasia areas is the anthropogenic halogen emissions but the influence of natural factors (especially SST) on the Qery trends can also be noticeable.
• The changes UV due to clouds according to ERA-INTERIM (our most reliable data) data has a significant trends of about 6-9% per decade ( both due to ozone and cloudiness) over several territories and much smaller – according to the CCM model .
• There are significant changes of UV resources providing more favorable conditions over some areas in winter and detrimental ones with the total decrease of UV optimum conditions – in spring and summer months.
