Enhancing Air Quality Modeling: Collaborative Visions for Future Improvements

The 2005 Modeling Conference focuses on advancing near-field air quality modeling through collaboration among federal agencies, the EPA, and the scientific community. The session emphasizes four essential elements: fostering a collaborative environment, promoting the use of advanced meteorological data from the National Weather Service, developing evaluation methods for model improvement, and endorsing a community approach to model development and acceptance. Together, these efforts aim to enhance source culpability assessments and strengthen the application of best scientific practices in air quality modeling.

  1. 8th Modeling Conference:Welcome & Opening Remarks Research Triangle Park September 22-23, 2005

  2. AERMOD, oh AERMOD, Where for art tho? --John Q Public 199x to present

  3. Dispersion Modeling Futures: Vision Statement “Lead and promote collaborative efforts on near-field air quality modeling to improve source culpability assessments”

  4. First Essential Element Foster a collaborative environment aimed at strengthening our technical expertise and working relationships across EPA, other Federal agencies, and the scientific community to regain our leadership role and promote use of best science and evaluation methods.

  5. Second Essential Element Promote and facilitate the use of gridded meteorological data including “state-of-practice” National Weather Service (NWS) meteorological analyses to improve modeling science and performance for near-field modeling applications (permits, toxics, direct PM).

  6. Third Essential Element Promote continual development of appropriate model evaluation methods to identify areas of improvement in our modeling system (emissions, MET, science), prioritize the research agenda across the modeling community, and ultimately improve model performance in critical policy and science areas.

  7. Fourth Essential Element Promote a community approach to model development and acceptance that champions the use of best science, supports continual improvement in modeling science and data, and timely model acceptance for use in regulatory arena.

  8. Let the fun begin !!!
