  2. Western Biogenic EI Improvement Project Status Update • Comparisons of emission inventories from SMOKE BEIS v3.14, MEGAN v2.04, MEGAN v2.10 for July 3 – 18, 2008 and January 3 – 18, 2008, with new WRF data • No change to previous conclusion to use MEGAN v2.10 • Most results are presented at the end as “extra slides” • Investigating isoprene emission and Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) data from WRF and satellite • Example results are presented today. • Recommend using satellite PAR data for 2008 emission inventories • Starting to evaluate WRF performance for cloud fraction 773 San Marin Drive, Suite 2115, Novato, CA 94998 P: 415-899-0700 F: 415-899-0707 www.environcorp.com

  3. Average Isoprene Emission from July 3 to July 18, 2008 Domain: 36km SMK-BEIS v3.14 MEGAN v2.04(old) MEGAN v2.10(new) MEGAN(old) – SMKBEIS MEGAN(new) – SMKBEIS MEGAN(new) – MEGAN(old)

  4. WRF Solar Radiation VS satellite PAR Satellite to MEGAN WRF to MEGAN Cloud • From GEWEX/GCIP and GEWEX Americas Prediction Project (GAPP) • Satellite reports PAR data used directly in MEGAN • Pinker, et al., shows good performance between satellite and ground stations PAR = 0.5 x SRAD Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) • Where • 0.5 is assumed that ½ of solar radiation is in 400-700nm band • SRAD is solar radiation (w/m2) VOC, CO, NO2, etc. MEGAN Model Pinker, et al., 2003, Surface radiation budgets in support of the GEWEX Continental-Scale International Project (GCIP) and the GEWEX Americas Prediction Project (GAPP), including the North American Land Data Assimilation System (NLDAS) project

  5. Average Isoprene Emission from July 3 to July 18, 2008 Domain: 36km MEGAN v2.10 WRF/MCIP MEGAN v2.10 Satellite Difference WRF/MCIP - Satellite Domain Total = 7353 kg/hr km2 Difference = 2618 kg/hr km2 (55%) Domain Total = 4735 kg/hr km2 PAR WRF/MCIP PAR Satellite PAR WRF/MCIP - Satellite

  6. WRF Solar Radiation VS satellite PAR PAR = 0.5 x Short Wave Radiation Satellite PAR Problem? 0.5 0.45 0.425 0.4

  7. Conversion Factor for Short Wave Radiation to PAR • Conversion Factor varies spatially and temporally • Use Conversion Factor of 0.45 for this study http://www.atmos.umd.edu/~srb/par/Figure03.htm PAR is defined as radiation with wavelength between 400 and 700 nm

  8. Average Isoprene Emission from July 3 to July 18, 2008 Domain: 36km MEGAN v2.10 WRF/MCIP MEGAN v2.10 Satellite Difference WRF/MCIP - Satellite Domain Total = 6504 kg/hr km2 Difference = 1769 kg/hr km2 (37%) Domain Total = 4735 kg/hr km2 PAR WRF/MCIP PAR Satellite PAR Difference (%) WRF/MCIP – Satellite

  9. Average Isoprene Emission from January 3 to 18, 2008 Domain: 36km MEGAN v2.10 WRF/MCIP Difference WRF/MCIP - Satellite MEGAN v2.10 Satellite Domain Total = 135.6 kg/hr km2 Difference = 44.54 kg/hr km2 (49%) Domain Total = 91.06 kg/hr km2 PAR WRF/MCIP PAR Satellite PAR Difference (%) WRF/MCIP - Satellite

  10. Average Isoprene Emission from July 3 to July 18, 2008 Domain: 4km MEGAN v2.10 WRF/MCIP MEGAN v2.10 Satellite Difference WRF/MCIP - Satellite Domain Total = 26,389 kg/hr km2 Difference = 6,747 kg/hr km2 (34%) Domain Total = 19,642 kg/hr km2

  11. Average Isoprene Emission from January 3 to 18, 2008 Domain: 4km MEGAN v2.10 WRF/MCIP MEGAN v2.10 Satellite Difference WRF/MCIP - Satellite Domain Total = 134.7 kg/hr km2 Difference = 54.59 kg/hr km2 (68%) Domain Total = 80.11 kg/hr km2

  12. Domain Average Isoprene Emission Domain: 4km • Using WRF/MCIP PAR results in higher emission especially during the peak hours • Day-to-day emission variations are due to cloud cover

  13. WRF Solar Radiation VS satellite PAR under clear sky Satellite CCF WRF/MCIP CCF • ISOP from WRF/MCIP PAR is higher up to 40%. Clear sky ISOP WRF/MCIP ISOP Satellite Percent Difference

  14. Western Biogenic EI Improvement Project Summary • The new WRF data do not change the conclusion to use MEGANv2.10 for 2008 biogenic inventory • WRF/MCIP PAR results in > 30% higher isoprene emission than satellite PAR, especially during the peak hours • Difference occurs under clear skies: not due to cloud fraction • Calculating PAR as a fraction of WRF Short Wave radiation is part of the problem • Recommend using satellite PAR data • Limited satellite data coverage for Canada and Mexico not a major shortcoming for this project • Working on converting satellite cloud fraction to a workable format for comparison with WRF/MCIP

  15. Western Biogenics EI Improvement Project Next Steps • Proceed with 2008 inventory using satellite PAR data • QA satellite PAR data to find and fill any data gaps • Process biogenic emissions for all of 2008 for the 3 domains • Proceed with cloud fraction analysis to assist with WRF evaluation
