Update on Asian Studies Related to Emissions and Modeling Gregory R. Carmichael Department of Chemical & Biochemical Engineering Center for Global & Regional Environmental Research and the University of Iowa
2
Topics Reported Recent advances in emissions estimates Long-term sulfur deposition calculation Update on model intercomparison study Completed passive sampler pilot project
6
The TRACE-P/Ace-Asia emission inventory shows the important sources of each type of air pollutant in Asia
7
Seasonality of emissions of the different species has been studied for China Mainly combustion- related species Mainly evaporation- related species
8
This is an example of TRACE-P SO 2 emissions at 30 sec. resolution for the Pearl River Delta Guangzhou Macau/Zhuhai Shenzhen Hong Kong Zhongshan Boxed area ~ 150 km x 150 km 30 sec = ~ 0.7 km
9
Biomass burning treatment combines country survey data with AVHRR analysis to give long-term average or “typical” burning amounts
10
Comparison of country surveys with various AVHRR fire-count adjustments reveals problem areas for further investigation Xinjiang Mongolia Indonesia Vietnam fire count > country surveys fire count < country surveys India It remains difficult to make the link between satellite observations of fire and atmospheric emissions
12
The Importance of Fossil, Biofuels and Open Burning Varies by Region
13
Uncertainty analysis has revealed wide differences in our knowledge of the emissions of particular species in particular parts of Asia …
14
Distribution of Percent Primary Non-carbonaceous PM 2.5 Emissions --How to distinguish from dust?

18
SULFUR EMISSIONS IN ASIA ARE CHANGING, REGION BY REGION, IN DIFFERENT WAYS We have analyzed sulfur deposition in Asia over last 25 yrs
20
Uncertainty in the Source-Receptor Relationships Interannual Variability (10-yrs)
21
Effect of Interannual Meteorological Variability on Sulfur Deposition can be Much Larger than Changes in Emissions! Is there climate feedback link?
22
Need to assess inter-model variability. The MICS-ASIA Study: Model InterComparison of Long-Range Transport and Sulfur Deposition in East Asia How Robust Are The Source-Receptor Relationships? Many different models with important similarities and differences:Lagrangian, Eulerian, Hybrid, etc.

On-going Activities Continued needs to improve emission estimates Follow-on activities related to model inter- comparison Interest in expanding base-line measurements – e.g., ABC study Closer linkages between urban/regional/global scales and health,air quality, climate communities WMO-GURME
32
Climate : Air Quality Analysis Framework
35
Urban Environments are Key Drivers of Change
36
Percentage contribution to total sulfur deposition due to SO 2 emissions from megacities and major urban centers in Asia, averaged over the period of 1975-2000
37
Estimated Source-Receptor Relations for Nitrate
39
Propane data from Blake et al.
40
Biomass burning treatment combines country survey data with AVHRR analysis to give long-term average or “typical” burning amounts Original two-year daily fire count data for 1999-2000
41
Nitrate Deposition is of Growing Importance % of Total Deposition as Nitrate
42
Speciation of NMVOC reveals great differences among countries with different levels of economic development
44
Comparison with monitoring data for the 11-20 January period.
45
… and converted them into appropriate profiles for China for the three different emission layers (both January and July)
