Abstract |
The theory and programming of statistical tests for evaluating the Real-Time Air-Quality Model (RAM) using the Regional Air Pollution Study (RAPS) data base are fully documented in four volumes. Moreover, the tests are generally applicable to other model evaluation problems. Volume 4 discusses the application and interpretation of the statistical programs, particularly with regard to use on the RAM. In general, there is no set procedure for evaluating an air-quality model because of the different reasons for evaluating models and many subjective decisions to be made during the process. However, guidelines are presented to cover a wide variety of evaluation needs, with attention to data preparation, classification, analysis, selection and application of tests, and interpretation of results. Several methods of diagnosing causes of poor model performance are discussed and some sample program outputs are also provided. |
