Appel, W., R. Gilliam, Jon Pleim, G. Pouliot, S. Roselle, R. Mathur, AND D. Kang. Fine-scale application of the coupled WRF-CMAQ model to the 2013 DISCOVER-AQ San Joaquin Valley campaign. 2015 DISCOVER-AQ Science Team Meeting, Boulder, CO, May 04 - 08, 2015.
Impact/Purpose:
The National Exposure Research Laboratory’s Atmospheric Modeling Division (AMAD) conducts research in support of EPA’s mission to protect human health and the environment. AMAD’s research program is engaged in developing and evaluating predictive atmospheric models on all spatial and temporal scales for forecasting the Nation’s air quality and for assessing changes in air quality and air pollutant exposures, as affected by changes in ecosystem management and regulatory decisions. AMAD is responsible for providing a sound scientific and technical basis for regulatory policies based on air quality models to improve ambient air quality. The models developed by AMAD are being used by EPA, NOAA, and the air pollution community in understanding and forecasting not only the magnitude of the air pollution problem, but also in developing emission control policies and regulations for air quality improvements.
Description:
Evaluation of fine-scale (4km, 2km) WRF-CMAQ simulations for the 2013 DISCOVER-AQ campaign in the San Joaquin Valley of California.
