2. Measurement Model Fusion for Acid Deposition
Objective: to improve mapping and estimation of wet deposition across North America using measurement and modelling results.

3. Need for M/M Fusion
Critical Load Exceedances for Lakes (Jeffries, 2010)

6. Measurement/Model Fusion - 2002 SO42- Wet Deposition (kg/ha/yr)

7. % Difference between Fused and AURAMS SO42- Wet Deposition 100 (model-measurement) / model

8. An Air Quality Example of Measurement-Model Fusion Needs: The Canadian Air Quality Management System and Canada-Wide Standards for PM2.5

9. Summary
There is a strong national and international need for measurement-model fusion methods for deposition and air quality
