  7. AAQFS Design Features • Generate air quality forecasts twice per day for a period of 24–36 hours: (3 pm and 9 am). • Forecast for a wide range of air pollutants: NOx, ROC, SO2, O3, aerosol, air toxics. • Resolve air quality down to suburb level (5 km, 1 km, and near-road in some cases). • Generate a ‘business as usual’ forecast and a ‘greener emissions’ forecast.

  9. Fleet emissions -Melbourne ROAD-LEVEL EMISSIONS THE SYSTEM TAIL-PIPE EMISSIONS AAQFS Emissions Inventory SOURCE CATEGORIES Cars, trucks, buses, motor cycles, lawn mowers, spray painting combustion stoves, cut grass, trees, dry cleaners, marine pleasure craft, aviation, commercial shipping, rail transport, surface coating/thinners, natural gas leakage, domestic/commercial solvents, service stations, refueling losses, cutback bitumen, domestic aerosols, domestic natural gas combustion, petroleum refining, chemical manufacturing, printing, fabricated metals,basic metal processing, fuel storage, paint manufacturing, food manufacturing,non-metallic mineral processing, hospitals, incinerator, paper products, quarrying textiles, coal mining, WEATHER MODEL EMISSIONS INVENTORY AIR QUALITY MODEL AIR QUALITY FORECAST

  10. Emissions Inventory • Motor vehicle emissions (diurnal, weekly var.) • Domestic wood fires (season, degree days) • Industrial stack plume rise (stability, winds) • Biogenic emissions from soil, vegetation (temperature, PAR, season) • Sea salt aerosol (winds, sea state, temperature) • Wind blown dust (winds, LAI, moisture) • Wild fires and controlled burns (winds, degree days, humidity) As much as possible, these emissions and their interactions with the forecast meteorology are calculated on-line.

  13. Example, The Forecastfor 6 June 01 on the Web: www.epa.vic.gov.au/air/AAQFS not on the Web

  14. NOy NO2 VOC O3 15 March 2001 Example, Summer validation(1)

  15. PM2.5/10 NO2/NOy AQI PM10/NOy 15 March 2001 Example, Summer validation(2)

  16. 50th,90th,95th,99th,99.9th,100th percentile concentrations, March 2001 for Melbourne/Geelong

  17. Contingency Table Melbourne & Geelong, March, June-July 2001 Probability of Detection, SP = [Yes,Yes]/Total Obs [Yes] = 69/116 = 59% Fraction of Realised Events, SR = [Yes,Yes]/Total Forecast [Yes] = 69/130 False Alarm Rate, (1-SR) = 61/130 = 47%

  18. PHOTOCHEMICAL SMOG Performance- daily 1-hour O3 max

  19. Why is AAQFS special? • Provides twice-daily forecasts of AQI or RPI (and 18 pollutants) for EPAs on time • Shows the daily development of pollution (highly instructive; web mounted) • Because prognostic, unusual events handled (if Emissions, Weather desc. OK) • Can explore results with powerful display tools and better, slower, models • Alternative scenarios, special locations handled
