Abstract
The multi-scale multi-module off-line and on-line coupled atmospheric chemistry transport and numerical weather prediction modeling systems developed and employed at the DMI are described. Several physics, chemistry, and aerosol modules which are currently implemented into used models for different applications are outlined. Recent developments and testing of these models are presented on examples, which show promising results.

At the current stage the Enviro-HIRLAM model is used as the baseline system for the HIRLAM chemical branch, and additionally to the HIRLAM community the following groups join the development team: University of Copenhagen, Tartu University (Estonia), Russian State Hydro-Meteorological University and Tomsk State University, Odessa State Environmental University (Ukraine), etc.
