Impact/Purpose:
This Work is a collection of selected papers presented at the 35th International Technical Meeting on Air Pollution Modeling and its Application, held in Chania (Crete), Greece, Oct 3-7, 2016. Current developments in air pollution modelling are explored as a series of contributions from researchers at the forefront of their field. This newest contribution on air pollution modelling and its application is focused on local, urban, regional and intercontinental modelling; long term modelling and trend analysis; data assimilation and air quality forecasting; model assessment and evaluation; aerosol transformation. Additionally, this work also examines the relationship between air quality and human health and the effects of climate change on air quality.
Description:
Source culpability assessments are useful for developing effective emission control strategies. The Integrated Source Apportionment Method (ISAM) has been implemented in CMAQ to track contributions from source groups and regions to ambient levels and deposited amounts of O3. CMAQ-ISAM has been used to simulate a heavy O3 pollution episode in Shanghai during June 2–6, 2015, to quantify the contributions of the precursor emission from different regions to O3 concentration in Shanghai, to identify the relative importance of different ways by which regional sources affected the O3 levels in Shanghai, and to investigate the sensitivity of O3 formation to the precursors during the episode. The results from this study could be helpful to diagnose deficiency in the emission inputs of the air quality forecasting system which has been operating daily since 2010 World Expo.
