  1. MANE-VU Status Report on CATT and FASTNET R. Poirot, VT DEC, 9/30/04 CATT: Combined Aerosol Trajectory Tools FASTNET: Fast Aerosol Sensing Tools for Natural Event Tracking Both are Inter-RPO Projects, Conducted by CAPITA (R. Husar), Managed for MANE-VU by: MARAMA (Serpil Kayin, CATT) & NESCAUM (Gary Kleiman, FASTNET) http://www.anr.state.vt.us/air/Planning/PublicDocs/FastCatMV2.ppt

  2. Status: CATT & FASTNET have been Eaten by DataFed.Net

  3. Within DATAFED.NET, CATT & FASTNET are 2 of many “Projects” which Share Many Common “Datasets” which are Archived & Accessible & can be Viewed, Compared, Exported, Analyzed & Interpreted, using a variety of Web-Based “Applications”

  4. Data Catalog(s) Provide Access to Many: Fast (rapidly available), Current (near-real-time, recently archived & continuing) and Slow (historical data Like IMPROVE Aerosol & ATAD trajectories)

  5. Data Catalogs: Aerosol, Fire, Maps, Meteorology, Emissions, Images, Events

  6. Data Viewer: Open & View Any File in Catalog(s). Many Files Include Time Series, Linked to Map – Point & Click. Zoom Map or Time series, Change Size, Symbols, Variables, Add Layers, Export Data – Copy Paste.

  7. Data Files Accessed & Archived Specifically for FASTNET. Note Varying Start dates (1988-2004), with Most Continuing. VIEWS_CHEM (IMPROVE Aerosol) and ATAD Trajectories (NPS) are currently used in CATT Applications

  8. DataFed.net Large Collection of Projects, Data, Tools. Where’s CATT “Start”? Kitty Start with Kitty:http://webapps.datafed.net/dvoy_services/datafed.aspx?view=Kitty

  9. Kitty Change Species or Site Filtering & Data Export Acadia SO4 > 15 ug/m3 Change Sites by Point & Click

  10. 1. Start with Kitty to Explore Any Combinations of IMPROVE & ATAD Traj. Data (any/all sites & years). 2. Export CSV file of Selected Data & Copy/Paste into CSV Table Editor and Save for Subsequent Analysis.

  11. 1. Change Traj Sort. 2. Plot in Kitty 2. Export file as CSV data. 3. Copy/Paste into File Editor,Save. 4. Open YourFile in TrajAggGrid… Save(d) as: ALLpost99OCge10.csv

  12. Select All Sites and Dates after 1/1/99 if : Organic Carbon >= 10 ug/m3. Fires in the West & Southeast (but not much in MANE-VU) Save CSV file & open in Trajectory Aggregator/Gridder, Weight Traj. by OC Concentration (or not), Normalize (or not) & Plot.

  13. Na >= 1.5 ug/m3 Sea Salt Comes from the Sea, as She Should. BRIG & ACAD Battelle PMF/Unmix modeling indicated a Sea Salt source at 6 MANE-VU sites, Increasing over time. Why? Is West Coast Sea Salt Increasing?

  14. Fine Soil >7.5, post-1999, All Sites & All Months Western & Asian Dust (Primarily Spring) Eastern Sahara Dust (Primarily Summer) Fine Soil > 7.5, All Years, All Sites, July-Only

  15. Arsenic Selenium Nickel Nickel Nickel

  16. If SO4 > 15 for entire IMPROVE network and entire period of record (25 sites). Top 10% of “Secondary Sulfate Source” from Battelle PMF at ACAD, BRIG, GRSM, LYBR, MACA, SHEN & WASH (7 sites)

  17. Areas upwind of High SO4 = areas of high SO2 emissions All US sites, SO4 >=15 Areas upwind of all sites for Highest dv = Highest SO4 1999 EGU SO2 Emissions from EPA Clean Air Markets, layered with NPS ATAD trajectories for high IMPROVE SO4 via DataFed Viewer... All US sites, dv >=30

  18. CATT Percent Difference Tool Calculates Incremental Probabilities for any IMPROVE Site and Species and any Percentile Concentration Arsenic at Acadia http://webapps.datafed.net/dvoy_services/datafed.aspx?view=CATT_PERC_DIFF

  19. Incremental Probabilities for Top 10% SO4 & NO3 at SHEN & WASH SO4 at SHEN SO4 at WASH NO3 at SHEN NO3 at WASH

  20. SO4 > 15 ug/m3 Kitty “How To”, for Review • From Kitty, http://webapps.datafed.net/dvoy_services/datafed.aspx?view=Kitty • select All Locations & YourSpecies >= X (using “Q” button) • Export CSV Data (“D” button) & Copy/Paste into CSV File Editor & Submitter: http://webapps.datafed.net/dvoy_services/editfile.aspx • Save as: YourFileName.csv • To Plot in Trajectory Aggregator & Gridder, substitute YourFileName.csv for ALLDVge30.csv • http://webapps.datafed.net/dvoy_services/datafed.aspx?view=TrajAggGrid&csv_url=ALLDVge30.csv&value_column=value&scale_max=0.004

  21. CATT Future: • Add Additional Ensemble Trajectory Metrics • “Automatically” update as new Traj & Aerosol data are available (Kristi Gebhart has just updated ATADs for most recent IMPROVE) • Add Additional Aerosol (STN) & Trajectory Data (Kristi is Willing to Crank ATADs for Entire STN Network – triple site density) • Continued Support from MANE-VU, other RPOs(?) & other DataFed.Net Partners (NSF, NASA, EPA, etc.).

  22. DataFed.Net The infrastructure that provides the structured data and tools NSF & NASA FASTNET DataLog The discussion forum and miscellaneous data catalog

  23. Analyst Consoles: Near-Real-Time Data Example: NE Sulfate Episode: 8/27/04 17:00UTC Sulfate in the Northeast Sahara Dust in the Gulf Fires in the Southeast Time Series Console: Southeast

  24. Aerosol Event Catalog: Distributed Web pages • Aerosol events appear any time and place and analyzed by many organizations. • The event info. is encoded, cataloged and accessed through Event Catalog • Each ‘event’ is given attributes: location and time of occurrence and aerosol type (dust, smoke, haze, other) • This allows graphic browsing of event-related information on maps and calendars and linking the info source, e.g. TNRCC. • Ideas on the Event Catalog (content, structure, interface, maintenance, etc) are welcome. Browser Links to Distributed Analyst/Data Web page

  25. Quebec Fires, July 6, 2002 SeaWiFS satellite and METAR surface haze shown in the Voyager distributed data browser Satellite data are fetched from NASA GSFC; surface data from NWS/CAPITA servers SeaWiFS, METAR & TOMS Index Superimposed

  26. PM-2.5 vs. ASOS Bext during 7/02 Quebec Smoke Event. Note Ratio of scales = 6:1 implying 6 m2/g for Organics (which = 1.8 OC for this smoke)

  27. Preliminary RAINS Hourly Sulfate data from 5 MANE-VU sites Note August 2nd Event (MD-only) vs. August 11th Event (All sites) From: Allen et al. 2004 (Draft – Do Not Cite)

  28. 8/2/04 13:00 Gridded ASOS Bext & AIRNOW PM-2.5 (Southern MANE-VU-only) 8/11/04 13:00 Gridded ASOS Bext & AIRNOW PM-2.5 (Entire MANE-VU Region)

  29. 2 Sets of ASOS Visibility Data (Expressed as VR, Bext & “Dry Bext”) SURF_MET ASOS (& meteorology) is Global, based on archived data, since 7/02 STI_ASOS is subset of 250 US-only sites, based on raw (uncensored) data, since 1/04 Both are Hourly and available in Near-Real-Time

  30. Use Data Viewer to Layer Various Aerosol-Related Data, including: Surface Winds, (SURF-MET) ASOS Bext, (STI) PM-2.5 Mass, (AIRNOW) Forecast SO4 (Westphal)

  31. RAINS Continuous Mass, SO4, OC data from Mohawk Mtn. CT vs. Bext from Bradley CT Airport - using MOMO species & Bradly RH to “Reconstruct” Bext. Prelim Data. Do Not Cite.

  32. Real-time Surface Meteorology provided a rich met context.Link to the Animation of the period Feb 19-21

  33. Mystery Peak over the Great Lake & NE Regions Feb-Mar mystery peak Jul-Aug sulfate peak The 30-day smoothing average shows the seasonality by region The Feb/Mar PM25 peak is evident for the Northeast, Great Lakes and Great Plains This secondary peak is absent in the South and West

  34. Feb 19 2004: • Isolated high PM25 occurs over the Midwest, Northeast and Texas • Aerosol patches are evident in AIRNOWPM25, ASOS & Fbext maps • The absence of TOMS signal indicates the lack of smoke or dust at high elevation • The high surface wind speed over Texas, hints on possible dust storm activity • The NAAPS model shows high sulfate over the Great Lakes, but no biomass smoke • Possible event causes: nitrate in the Upper Midwest and Northeast, sulfate around the Great Lakes and dust over Texas

  35. Aug 18 • This episode has an intensive region in the Northeast and another in the Southeastern US • The AIRNOW, ASOS and Visibility all show similar location of elevated aerosol • Highest MODIS AOT and GASP AOT values occur over the Northeast • The surface winds indicate stagnation over the southeastern EUS • NAAPS model predicts high sulfate in the Northeast and biomass smoke over the Southeast • Possible causes: sulfate episode in the Northeast, smoke and sulfate in the Southeast(?)

  36. FASTNET Future: • Link various “image data” (photos, satellite, etc.) to “Events”, • Add New Data (& Datasets, like RAINS) & Continue Archival, • Link New Fast to Old Slow (IMPROVE Aerosol & Traj.) Data, • Compare Aerosol/haze indicators to Emissions & Model Data, • Automated “Event Detection” & Analysis Methods! • Continued Support from MANE-VU, other RPOs(?) & other DataFed.Net Partners (NSF, NASA, EPA, etc.).
