  1. Current Research on 3-DAir Quality Modeling: wildfire! Extracted from Presentation of Sept. 29th 2006 to Institute for Chemical Process and Environmental Technology NRC Canadaby Jack Chen Laboratory for Atmospheric Research Washington State University

  2. Gridded Emissions Short Range Forecast System: AIRPACT • AIRPACT has been providing hourly air quality forecasts for the Pacific Northwest since 2000 • O3 • CO • Primary PM tracers • Air toxics tracers • Secondary PM2.5 • ASO4, ANO3, ANH4, SOA • Wet and dry pollutant deposition • Visibility parameters AIRPACT-CALGRID (2000) AIRPACT-CMAQ (2006) Forecast Meteorology (MM5) CALMET CALGRID EPA:MCIP  CMAQ • State-of-science knowledge in atmospheric chemistry and physics • Multiphase chemistry (gas, aqueous, aerosol) and aerosol dynamics • CMAQ has a wide user community with active development and support from the public and EPA

  3. AIRPACT-CMAQ AIRPACT-CALGRID Short Range Forecast System: AIRPACT AIRPACT-CALGRID • 81 x 138 at 4-km • 13 layers AIRPACT-CMAQ • 95 x 95 at 12-km • 21 layers • System runs dailywww.airpact-3.wsu.edu

  4. EPA:MCIP  CMAQ Gridded Emissions Short Range Forecast System: AIRPACT 2005 anthropogenic emissions (SMOKE) WSU Dairy NH3 Emissions Module Updated Biogenic Emission Model (BEIS3) Wild and Prescribed Fire Emissions Dynamic Boundary Conditions Dynamic Initial Conditions
