Dear SW and Ben,
Thanks again for the data. Indeed, we’ve made use of the data, and found quite substantial damage of ozone pollution on HK’s vegetation in our simulations. In order to improve our simulation results, we figure that we may need additional data especially for:- Downward solar radiation (or photosynthetically active radiation): total, direct beam and diffuse- Surface or sea-level pressure- Soil moisture
Would any of the above variables be available? Thanks a lot again for the collaboration.

Dear Prof Tai,
Our team is now preparing the required data. Will contact you once ready.
*Data needed from HKO:* Hourly meteorological observations (including but not limited to temperature, air pressure, precipitation, relative/specific humidity, wind speed, etc.) for various sites in Hong Kong over the past 20 years.
Regards,
Ben Hui

Dear WC and Ben,
Thanks a lot again for the approval to make use of HKO data for this, in my view, highly relevant project for local environmental sustainability. Ben, I look forward to working with you to access the necessary data for our model simulations. Just let me know what way is the most convenient!
Best,
Amos

Dear Prof Tai,
I would like to introduce to you my colleague Ben Hui (kc...@hko.gov.hk <mailto:kc...@hko.gov.hk>), who is responsible for climatological data. It would be more convenient for you to discuss directly on how the data could be provided to you. Please keep us in the loop, though.

Dear WC,
Sorry for the delayed response! Please see below for a
project description.
*Title: Impacts of climatic stress and air pollution on
Hong Kong forest productivity and ecosystem services*
Both climate change and air pollution have been shown to
interfere with the productivity and health of terrestrial
ecosystems. More frequent climate extremes including heat
waves, cold spells and droughts bring tremendous stress
to forest ecosystems. High temperatures are often also
associated with ozone pollution, which is particularly
damaging to vegetation. Situated in heavily forested
South China, Hong Kong has been experiencing increasing
climatic stress and ozone pollution. In this project, we
will make use of a computational Terrestrial Ecosystem
Model in R (TEMIR) developed in-house by Tai’s group
to quantify the impacts of climate extremes and ozone
pollution episodes on Hong Kong’s forests and their
ability to provide important ecosystem services such as
evaporative cooling, carbon uptake, water cycling and
pollutant removal in the recent decades. Hourly
meteorological observations (from HKO) and ozone
concentrations (from EPD), as well as, land surface and
vegetation characteristics, be used as inputs to TEMIR.
Important output variables will include forest primary
productivity, transpiration, radiative forcing, and the
fluxes of various climatically important species
including CO2, O3, NOx, and PM; these outputs will allow
us to evaluate how the impacts of recent climatic changes
on Hong Kong’s ecosystem health.

*Data needed from HKO:* Hourly meteorological
