  2. Why dispersion modeling? • Radiological – Regional Specialized Meteorological Center (RSMC) Washingtonper WMO Documentation on RSMC Support for Environmental Emergency Response (WMO-TD/No. 778) • Volcanic ash • NOAA-FAA MOU on Volcanic Hazards Alert • Volcanic Ash Advisory Centers (Washington and Anchorage)per ICAO*International Standards and Recommended Practices; Annex 3 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, Meteorological Service for International Air Navigation • Homeland Security – support WFOs • *ICAO: International Civil Aviation Organization

  3. Current Version Scripts and executables for each application (radiological, volcanic ash, homeland security) Data and options hardwired New Version Single executable Options controlled by unified pre- and post-processing scripts Software self-contained for easy installation at backup facilities System Description

  20. Current Version New Version Homeland Security Example

  21. Future Upgrades Currently Being Tested • Extend existing CONUS Eta to +84 hours • Additional meteorological data grids • Eta over Alaska/North Pacific • CONUS Eta grid with hourly fields • Higher resolution GFS (0.5 deg) • Convert from pressure NMM to native sigma coordinates • Output grids • Hourly volcanic ash output for NAWIPS • Host RSMC web page at NCEP • Model Physics • Automatic particle-puff transformations • Short-range dispersion algorithms • Partitioning TKE between horizontal and vertical • Ensemble dispersion forecasts based on NCEP short-range and global ensembles

  22. Potential New Applications • Forest fire smoke transport and dispersion • Simple ozone chemistry (3-equation steady state or 7-equation differential solution) • PM10 air concentrations from dust storms • 2-D transport on water surfaces • Internal offset trajectory based ensemble • Satellite “assimilation”
