CHIMERE air quality forecasts : results during Pays de la Loire summer 2004 experiment and end-user point of view • ACRI-ST • Arnaud REBOURS - AIR PAYS DE LA LOIRE 1st CHIMERE workshop 21, 22 March 2005 -Palaiseau France
French air pollution control networks organization • 2 missions : air quality survey and information PARIS NANTES Air Pays de la Loire Pays de la Loire region : 3 200 000 inhab.; 32 000 km2
Laval St-Nazaire Cholet La Roche/Y Air Pays de la Loire • Territorial cover Le Mans • 10 survey zones • 50 survey sites • continuous control • 15 minutes time resolution Angers Nantes
Regional scale : Calgrid • Street scale : OSPM 10 august 2003 NO2 - Nantes 2001 • Industrial scale : Calpuff 11 feb. 2003 - refinery • Modelisation tools Scenario mode
Summer 2004 experiment : operation by ACRI-ST of an air quality forecast system based on MM5-CHIMERE over the Pays de la Loire region CONTEXT • 18 june 2004 french regulation : during pollution episodes, air quality public information is based on observations or on risk of exceedings of thresholds -> necessity of forecasting development • Period : 13 july - 12 october 2004
GWEST 15 km • 2zones : Great West area (15 km) and Pays de la Loire region (5 km) APL 5 km • 2pollutants : O3 and NO2 • 4daily outputs : D-1, D, D+1 and D+2 • hourly time step LOCAL FORECASTING PLATFORM

FORECAST PRELIMINARY RESULTS • Observation data : 20 survey sites • Statistical criteria : BIAS and NMSE
calculation validation POST-PROCESSING ON FORECASTS • Vigilance maps improve public information • 2 ways : forecasting observation • 13 alert zones :5 departments (counties), 7 agglomerations, 1 industrial area • 3 symbolic colours : green, orange, red
Forecasted exceeding POST-PROCESSING ON FORECASTS • Vigilance maps improve public information Procedure activating conditions - agglomerations : 2 sites - departments : 2 agglomerations or 30% of the zone
POST-PROCESSING ON FORECASTS • Vigilance maps improve public information communiqués(fax and e-mail) web site : www.airpl.org
POST-PROCESSING ON FORECASTS • Air quality index prediction • Exceedings evaluations of limit values, quality objectives and target values Annual maps ,...)=
CONCLUSION • Forecast results are acceptable for ozone and better than continental modeled values for NO2 • Local platform brings helps to diagnosis : background pollution in the great west of France, influence of Paris pollution, meteorological forecast parameters • Post processing improve air quality information in connection with alert system or daily pollution
PROSPECTS • Integration of detailed emission calculations (AIREMIS) • Statistical adaptation of modeled results with observations for D-1 and D steps • Integration of meteorological and pollution vertical profiles • Local platform should be operated by Air Pays de la Loire during summer 2005
