  35. Status of Air Quality Modeling for the July, 1999 CCOS Episode

  36. Air Quality Modeling: -- Proposed simulation period of July 8-12, 1999. -- Modeling performance varies by CCOS subregion and generally degrades from north to south. -- Simulations often overestimate observed peak ozone concentrations. -- Model performance statistical measures are not too bad in some subregions, for some days. However, peak simulated ozone concentrations are often mis-located.

  37. Air Quality Modeling (cont.): -- Anticipated adjustments to MM5 meteorological fields may significantly influence air quality model results.
