1 Incorporating Monitoring, Modeling, and EI Data into AoH Analysis AoH Meeting, Salt Lake City September 21-22, 2004 Air Resource Specialists, Inc.

2 Regional Analysis AoH Phase I intended to make assessments that cover broad regions Many Methods of approaching regional/cluster analysis –Similar aerosol composition –Similar emissions source regions/categories –Similar geography –Similar meteorology

3 Regional Clusters on COHA Website COHA: http://coha.dri.edu/web/general/trajgallery/trajmapgallery.htmlhttp://coha.dri.edu/web/general/trajgallery/trajmapgallery.html

4 IMPROVE Particulate Monitoring Cluster Criteria All Class I areas within 100 km of a current site Site location lies between highest and lowest elevations of all areas in cluster 156 Class I areas combined into 108 clusters

5 IMPROVE Clusters IMPROVE Sites Class I Areas

6 Look at CMAQ-TSSA results and group sites that are basically influenced by the same sources Look at trajectories of the 20% worst visibility days and group sites with similar patterns Look at monitoring results Possible Expansion of IMPROVE Clusters

7 IMPROVE Sites Class I Areas

8 Monitoring Results July and January, 2002 preliminary results presented at July, 2004 AoH meeting –1 st look at site groupings: July 20% worst modeled extinction days NOx

9 Rocky Mountain National Park CMAQ- TSSA NOx

10 Mount Zirkel WA CMAQ-TSSA NOx

11 White River WA CMAQ-TSSA NOx

12 Trajectory Analysis HYSPLIT calculated back trajectories matching July 2002 days from modeled data Model ParameterValue Trajectory duration72 hours (3 days) Top of model domain14,000 meters Vertical motion optionused model data Receptor height500 meters EDAS meteorological data was used for trajectories Note: CMAQ modeled data uses MM5 meteorological data

13 ROMO HYSPLIT Back Trajectories July 1, 2,8,9,10, 23 (2002)

14 MOZI HYSPLIT Back Trajectories July 1, 2,8,9,10, 23 (2002)

30 IMPROVE Sites Class I Areas Similar Approach for Tribal CIAs Pine Mountain Mazatzal Sycamore Canyon Supersition Yavapai-Apache

31 DRI residence time maps and trajectory regression analyses Temporal Resolution of Aerosol Data –Total Extinction –Mass –Worst and best days Summary of particulate and visibility data, and attributable emissions What else would be helpful for States and Tribes for Phase I? Other Tools for Attribution Analysis
