On 22 and 23 June, the Institute will be taking part in the symposium on the CHIMERE chemistry-transport model, which it is developing in partnership with the CNRS.
CHIMERE is a key component of the Prev’air national air quality forecasting system, of the Copernicus Atmospheric Monitoring Service at EU level, and of air quality policy assessment work on behalf of the French Ministry of Ecological Transition and Territorial Cohesion.
Ineris interventions covered the following topics:
- developments in aerosol and fine particle modelling in CHIMERE;
- CHIMERE in operational air quality forecasting in France (Prev’air) and Europe (Copernicus/CAMS);
- Air Control Toolbox: a web-based emulator that simulates the effects of air pollution reduction strategies, based on machine learning using the CHIMERE model;
- accounting for the impact of meteorological variations on particle and nitrogen oxide emissions generated by domestic heating systems.
