3 Lack of measurements in China and India

4 Motivation in/beyond the present study Measurements of aerosol UNEP/ABC-Asia Observatory compounds were limited over Asia, therefore validation of models are inadequate. To combine traditional network (e.g., IMPROVE, EMEP, EANET), own measurements under specific projects, new network like UNEP/ AERONET SKYNET CIMEL sun photometer in ARM project PREDE skyradiometer in Tohoku Univ. ADNET ABC-Asia observatory and column burden of aerosol optical products obtained by AERONET/NASA, SKYNET/Japan, and NIES-Lidar, we start to multi-compare results of the aerosol-transport models and Lidar at NIES (until 2000yr) try to understand their performance. 4

The anthropogenic SO2 emissions are based on EDGAR 32FT2000 database ( emission data/edgar 32ft2000/index.html). Biomass burning emissions in each month is based on the fire maps derived from MODIS. The oxidant concentrations such as ozone and hydroxyl radical, which are not predicted in SPRINTARS but are needed to calculate sulfate chemistry, are given by a global chemical transport model, CHASER by Sudo l Surface BC of CTL is quite underestimated, but AOD of CTL during May- August is OK. l Low SSA ( ) seen in observation during June- July could NOT be found at simulation. à Vertical distribution of BC and others (firstly use model with small dx) à Consider BC+Dust internally mixture Multiple comparison is important!

The particles are treated as external mixtures except for carbonaceous aerosols. The secondary OC and 50 % BC mass from fossil fuel source are treated as externally mixed particles, but other carbonaceous particles are treated as internal mixtures of BC and primary OC. For soil dust and sea salt aerosols, mixing ratios are calculated for various size bins from 0.1 to 10 µm (Takemura et al., 2009). On the other hand, for carbonaceous and sulfate aerosols, the dry mode radii are set to 0.1 and µm, respectively (Takemura et al., 2002). Aerosol densities are set to the same values as Takemura et al. (2002). The scattering properties by Mie theory used in this study are described elsewhere (Schutgens et al., 2010).
