Abstract
In the frame of the CityDelta project, three different chemistry-transportmodels, CALGRID, CAMx and STEM were used to simulate different emissionscenarios expected up to 2010 over a 300x300 km2 domain placed in the NorthernItaly. The aim of this work is to show the differences between the results producedby the three models. The results show that the three models give very similarresults in terms of mean value, but they could give very different responses if theexceedance day indicator is used.
