Presentation transcript:

Brief evaluation of REMAD and CMAQ for east Texas tracers Mark Green, DRI Model results from Christian Seigneur and Betty Pun- AER (CMAQ and REMSAD), and Mike Barna- CIRA (REMSAD)

Methodology Evaluation used 6-hour tracer data and model predictions for two 10-day periods where tracer data was sequestered: August 15-25, 1999; October 5-15, 1999

AER summary of CMAQ tracer transport In the 36 km simulations, tracer plumes still miss monitoring sites at and near Big Bend on some days In both the 36 and 4 km simulations for August, the PPCH plumes are too far East In both the 36 and 4 km simulations for October, the PTCH plumes are too far South 36 km simulations bring plume a lot closer to Big Bend than 4 km simulations
