DESCRIPTION:\n\nThe Meteorological Synthesizing Centre West of the Europea
 n Monitoring and Evaluation Programme (EMEP MSC-W\, www.emep.int) has prov
 ided chemical transport modelling support to the UNECE Air Convention (une
 ce.org/environmental-policy-1/air) since 1979. Over the years the modellin
 g tools have developed from simple Lagrangian codes with horizontal resolu
 tion of ca. 150 km to 3-D Eulerian codes with scales ranging from ca. 1~km
  over limited areas to ca. 50 km for global scale calculations. The origin
 al focus on sulphur and acid deposition to ecosytems has developed into a 
 strong focus on particulate matter (PM)\, and health metrics\, with a mass
 ive increase in complexity. An offline extension of the EMEP model for urb
 an areas (uEMEP) allows for estimates of some compounds to be made with re
 solutions of less than 100 m across Europe.\n\n \n\nThis talk will give a 
 brief overview of the development of the EMEP models over the years\, and 
 illustrate some of the successes and issues associated with the current EM
 EP model\, and with PM modelling in particular.\n\n-----------------------
