  15. Performance for Toxics Models-3/CMAQ Workshop

  16. Conclusions • In general, performance of CMAQ is consistent with that of other models • We may experience some limitations of CMAQ and IO/API • Efficiency of the code is a concern • Expect to enhance model capabilities, especially for PM Models-3/CMAQ Workshop
