2 Introduction

3

4 CMAQ Community Multiscale Air Quality Model
Community Model Multiscale consistent model structures for interaction of urban through Continental scales Multi-pollutant ozone, speciated particulate matter, visibility, acid deposition and air toxics

5

6 Symmetry: overprediction and underprediction are treated proportionately

7 BNMBF: symmetry , (Range) -∞ to +∞, + is overprediction – is underprediction

8 ENMEF: 0 to +∞

9 Unbiased: avoid undue influence of small numbers in denominator
BNMBF: result of sum of indiv. factor bias with obs (or model) conc. as a weighting function

10 Test of Metrics

11 Test of Metrics (Continued) :11 models from IPCC (2001) (nss-SO42-)

12 Test of Metrics (Continued) :11 models for nss-SO42-
Model H: best; Model A: worst Models E, G, H: acceptable If criteria: ±25% (BNMBF), 35% (ENMEF)

13 Application of new Metrics for CMAQ evaluation
Jan. 8 to Feb. 18, 2002

14 Application of new Metrics (Continued)
Jan. 8 to Feb. 18, 2002

15 Contacts: Brian K. Eder
