Both the host atmospheric climate model ECHAM6.3 and the aerosol model HAM2.3 were updated from previous versions. The updated version of the HAM aerosol model contains improved parameterizations of aerosol processes such as cloud activation, as well as updated emission fields for anthropogenic aerosol species and modifications in the online computation of sea salt and mineral dust aerosol emissions. Aerosol results from nudged and free running simulations for the 10-year period 2003 to 2012 are compared to various measurements of aerosol properties. While there are regional deviations between model and observations, the model performs well overall in terms of aerosol optical thickness, but may underestimate coarse mode aerosol concentrations to some extent, so that the modeled particles are smaller than indicated by the observations. Sulfate aerosol measurements in the US and Europe are reproduced well by the model, while carbonaceous aerosol species are biased low. Both mineral dust and sea salt aerosol concentrations are improved compared to previous versions of ECHAM-HAM. The evaluation of the simulated aerosol distributions serves as a basis for the suitability of the model for simulating aerosol-climate interactions in a changing climate. 000858698 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-512$$a512 - Data-Intensive Science and Federated Computing (POF3-512)$$cPOF3-512$$fPOF III$$x0 000858698 536__ $$0G:(EU-Grant)603445$$aBACCHUS - Impact of Biogenic versus Anthropogenic emissions on Clouds and Climate: towards a Holistic UnderStanding (603445)$$c603445$$fFP7-ENV-2013-two-stage$$x1 000858698 536__ $$0G:(DE-Juel-1)ESDE$$aEarth System Data Exploration (ESDE)$$cESDE$$x2 000858698 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aNeubauer, David$$b1 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aFerrachat, Sylvaine$$b2 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aSiegenthaler-Le Drian, Colombe$$b3 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aBey, Isabelle$$b4 000858698 7001_ $$00000-0001-9805-6384$$aSchutgens, Nick$$b5 000858698 7001_ $$00000-0002-1191-0128$$aStier, Philip$$b6 000858698 7001_ $$00000-0002-5312-4950$$aWatson-Parris, Duncan$$b7 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aStanelle, Tanja$$b8 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aSchmidt, Hauke$$b9 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aRast, Sebastian$$b10 000858698 7001_ $$00000-0002-1404-6670$$aKokkola, Harri$$b11 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)6952$$aSchultz, Martin$$b12 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)16212$$aSchröder, Sabine$$b13$$ufzj 000858698 7001_ $$00000-0002-2409-0392$$aDaskalakis, Nikos$$b14 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aBarthel, Stefan$$b15 000858698 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aHeinold, Bernd$$b16 000858698 7001_ $$00000-0001-8885-3785$$aLohmann, Ulrike$$b17 000858698 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2456729-2$$a10.5194/gmd-2018-235$$gp. 1 - 54$$p1 - 54$$tGeoscientific model development discussions$$v235$$x1991-962X$$y2018 000858698 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/858698/files/gmd-2018-235.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000858698 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:858698$$pdnbdelivery$$pec_fundedresources$$pVDB$$pdriver$$popen_access$$popenaire 000858698 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)6952$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b12$$kFZJ 000858698 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)16212$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b13$$kFZJ 000858698 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-512$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-510$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-500$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bKey Technologies$$lSupercomputing & Big Data$$vData-Intensive Science and Federated Computing$$x0 000858698 9141_ $$y2018 000858698 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000858698 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBY4$$2HGFVOC$$aCreative Commons Attribution CC BY 4.0 000858698 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0030$$2StatID$$aPeer Review$$bASC 000858698 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0600$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bEbsco Academic Search 000858698 920__ $$lyes 000858698 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)JSC-20090406$$kJSC$$lJülich Supercomputing Center$$x0 000858698 980__ $$ajournal 000858698 980__ $$aVDB 000858698 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000858698 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)JSC-20090406 000858698 9801_ $$aFullTexts
