Emission Size Distribution –Can cause consistent number underprediction –Outdated science in model biases fewer, larger particles Nucleation mode –Not all nucleated particles survive to be observed and included in Aitken mode

Nucleation Model Size Distributions Ternary nucleation with processing to 10 nm best simulates the shape of the size distribution and the Aitken mode diameter

Emission Size Distribution –Can cause consistent number underprediction –Outdated science in model biases fewer, larger particles Nucleation mode –Not all nucleated particles survive to be observed and included in Aitken mode

Improve Emissions Size Distributions Scale to 4 km grid –All processes < 4 km scale must be parameterized Use “urban background” measurements to constrain model –Mostly from traffic Emissions Sensitivity Matrix 4 km
