Intercomparison of Spatial Interpolation Schemes for Use in Nested Grid Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two geometrical and two advection-equivalent spatial interpolation schemes were tested in providing lateral boundary conditions to a nested grid domain. Geometric interpolation schemes used in this study are a zeroth- order ...
New Categorical Metrics for Air Quality Model Evaluation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Traditional categorical metrics used in model evaluations are ?clear cut? measures in that the model?s ability to predict an ?exceedance? is defined by a fixed threshold concentration and the metrics are defined by ...
Integrated Meteorology and Chemistry Modeling: Evaluation and Research Needs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Using National Air Quality Forecast Guidance to Develop Local Air Quality Index Forecasts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The National Air Quality Forecast Capability (NAQFC) currently provides next-day forecasts of ozone concentrations over the contiguous United States. It was developed collaboratively by NOAA and Environmental Protection ...
Key Issues for Seamless Integrated Chemistry–Meteorology Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractOnline coupled meteorology?atmospheric chemistry models have greatly evolved in recent years. Although mainly developed by the air quality modeling community, these integrated models are also of interest for numerical ...
Linking the Eta Model with the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) Modeling System to Build a National Air Quality Forecasting System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: NOAA and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have developed a national air quality forecasting (AQF) system that is based on numerical models for meteorology, emissions, and chemistry. The AQF system generates ...
