OUTLINE PROJECT OBJECTIVES METEOROLOGICAL PATTERNS RAMS AND MM5 RESULTS EMISSION PATTERNS CAMx RESULTS CONCLUSIONS

Specific objectives: (1) Install environmental monitoring sites (2) Prepare environmental databases (3) Prepare regional climatology (4) Conduct field campaigns during periods conducive to poor regional AQ (5) Apply RAMS & MM5 and CAMx to increase understanding of current & future air quality problems

Results show spatial & temporal variations in met factors & air quality concentrations temporal & spatial emission patterns that reflect land use patterns RAMS winds reproduce observed transport patterns CAMx ozone fields reproduce transboundary transport patterns observed by aircraft

Emission Inventory: Large Stationary (point) sources (58% fuel consumption) 400 Medium Stationary (point) sources (6.6%) Small Stationary (area) sources (12.2%) Solvents (area) sources Biogenic Stationary (area) sources (isoprene and monoterpene) Mobile (area) sources, both ground based and aerial

Weather Conditions: Preview Pre-episode: subtropical H slow speeds, low mixing depth Episode: shallow Persian thermal trough penetrates H withdraws increased surface HPG augmented westerly sea breeze front inland elevated ozone concentration

EPA uMM5 at SJSU As close as possible to RAMS set-up 3 nested grids on 96 CPU cluster Initialized & updated every 6 hr with ECMWF fields Topography from GTOPO30 project, horizontal grid spacing of 30 sec (approx 1 km 2 ) Land-use & DTM (25 x 25 m 2 ) for 2nd & 3rd grids MM5 Met fields will also be used as input to CAMx Meso wind convention: flag is 5 m/s & full barb is 1 m/s

CAMx: version 3.10 Map projection: Polar Stereographic Grid area: 270 x 370 km 2. Cells 5 X 5 km 2 Transport algorithm: area preserving flux-form advection solver (Bott 1989). CBM-IV: Carbon Bond Mechanism + CMC fast solver. Plume-in-grid: sub model used for main stationary sources. Maturity parameters 2500 m or 12hr.

Future Plans: GIS/RS from TAU, ARIJ, an EPRI to determine gridded fields of sfc characteristics (e.g., z 0, ε, α, LU/LC) for uMM5 and CAMx Urbanized EPA MM5 meso-model (uMM5xx) will simulate additional flow cases on the 106 CPU SJSU cluster CAMx will be run with current precursor emissions using output from the RAMS and uMM5xx simulations ARIJ, EPRI, & HUJI planners will identify future emission scenarios from 2010 & 2020 population conditions (when regional populations will be 2 x present values) to test in CAMx Jordanian scientists will become part of project
