  1. SCIENTIFIC TOOLS:Mesoscale Modelling Projects RATIONALE INDIVIDUAL PROJECT OBJECTIVES PROJECT DESCRIPTION & STATUS EXPECTED OUTCOMES & BENEFITS

  2. Rationale • Regulatory Dispersion Modelling & Airshed Characterization • “MM5 Meteorological Data for Western Canada (20 km)”

  3. Rationale • Regulatory Dispersion Modelling & Airshed Characterization • “MM5 Meteorological Data for Western Canada (20 km)” • UNBC/UBC CFCAS grant proposal • “High Resolution Atmospheric Simulations along Coasts & over Complex Terrain”

  4. Individual Project Objectives Forecast mode Hindcast mode Fine (MC2) Ultra-fine (CFD) UNBC “Model Initialization” UBC “Model Resolution”

  5. Project Description • Study Area • Kamloops • Kelowna

  6. Project Description • Study Area • Kamloops • Kelowna • Study Period • Summer O3 (Jun 12 – Jun 26, 2002) • Winter PM (Jan 28 – Feb 10, 2003)

  7. Project Description... continued • Model Validation • Vertical (hi-res sounding data) • Horizontal (EC, WALP, MoF and MoTH surface data) • Inner nest & parent MC2 4 km, 2 km RAMS 3 km, 1 km CFD 1 km, 200 m

  8. Project Status

  9. Project Status • UNBC • Summer simulation complete & being validated • Winter simulation underway • UBC • MC2 @ 2k (login: bcwalp pwd:kamloops) • MC2 output projected onto Clark’s grid • Code ported to MPI environment • Testing implementation with 2D version of model

  10. CONCLUSION:Expected Outcomes & Benefits
