Shipping contribution to European air quality and depositions, both in 2018 and in two future scenarios for 2050, modelled by SILAM CTM
Description
Emissions from ships are one important source of pollutants that effect both the air and water quality. Here the 2018 European air quality is modelled using the System for Integrated modeLling of Atmospheric coMposition (SILAM) chemistry transport model, together with Ship Traffic Assessment Model (STEAM). Annual mean surface concentrations and depositions of various species are calculated for the year 2018, both with and without shipping emissions in European scale at a resolution of 0.05 degrees. Additionally, the air quality and deposition fields were modelled by using the two shipping emission scenarios for the year 2050. The shipping emission for the year 2018 and for the future scenarios S3 and S8 were specifically build for the EU Horizon project EMERGE.
