Introduction In order to fulfil their scientific tasks, state-of-the-art air quality models should be capable of predicting participate matter in addition to the gas-phase concentrations. A suitable aerosol model for the application in complex regional transport models has to: * provide sufficient information on the chemical composition as well as on the size distribution of the atmospheric particles; * be coupled to a photochemical model to be able to represent the interactions between the gas phase and the
