This report identifies meteorological and air quality data sources for the oil shale areas of Western Colorado, Eastern Utah and Southern Wyoming. The information and bibliography identified in this report are not complete, or exhaustive, but consist of the material collected during 1980-1982 as part of the Green River Ambient Model Assessment program. These materials were collected with three criteria in mind: generic information applicable to the oil shale area, general information for the Rocky Mountain west, and information specific to the oil shale areas. The evaluation and analysis of these materials have not been comprehensive from the viewpoint of a complete and adequate synthesis of the data and information, an exercise which really is needed. However, the evaluation of the material has been sufficiently complete to gain a picture of the existing terrain, its cover, and its meteorology and climate, as well as the chemical and visual quality of the atmosphere over the region. From this picture of the region, a list of information and data needs required of local and mesoscale air quality models for the Green River area has been derived.
