Good day!

This is from Guixuan and I hope this email finds you well.

I would like to confirm that the emission dataset used for the RegCM-Chem on the website was only till 2009 both CMIP5 history (http://clima-dods.ictp.it/regcm4/RCP_EMGLOB_PROCESSED/RCP_reference/) or IASA (http://clima-dods.ictp.it/regcm4/RCP_EMGLOB_PROCESSED/iiasa/) emissions. Then the chemical boundary conditions datasets including 6-hour and climatology representative MOZART, the former was only till 2009 and the latter was only for the 2000-2007 average (http://clima-dods.ictp.it/regcm4/OXIGLOB/). 

 

I wonder that if I want to model the year 2010-2018, whether I need to download both the emission dataset (eg, IASA) and chemical boundary condition dataset (eg, MOZART) from the https://www.acom.ucar.edu/waccm/download.shtml covering these years at the global scale? 

Besides, I wonder whether the dataset in the folder eclipse could instead of the iiasa dataset, the emission types could be consistent with RegCM models when using chemsimtype = 'AERO', and the v6.0b version of eclipse datasets downloaded from the https://iiasa.ac.at/web/home/research/researchPrograms/air/ECLIPSEv6b.html could be used directly without code modifying?  

Your help will be highly appreciated!  

Looking forward to your reply!

Thanks a lot in advance!  

Best Regards,
