These are non-exclusive grouping of CMIP variables (e.g. monthly time slices of the baseline variables). Variables can belong to more than one group.

| justification | Impacts modelers are interested in hourly outputs to understand acute air pollution risks to human health. This variable group includes PM1.0, PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and O3 as well as atmospheric conditions that affect vulnerability and chemical processes in the atmosphere. |
| name | HealthPollutionhourly |
| notes | I&A author team ask that the cross-thematic steering group be made aware that if hourly is rejected it would still be valuable to have 3hourly versions of the same variables (less good and causes more limitations but would be better than current situation). Open to negotiation for an alternative sub-daily output resolution. Note by Alex Ruane, posted by @Briony Turner 16 September 2024 |
