Improving the prediction of air pollution peak episodes generated by urban transport networks

Evaluation of high-resolution LM for urban air pollution episodes

Introduction Conclusions References Tables Figures Back Close Abstract Introduction Conclusions References Tables Figures Back Close Abstract The operational numerical weather prediction model Lokalmodell LM with 7 km horizontal resolution was evaluated for simulations of the meteorological conditions during observed urban air pollution episodes. The resolution was increased to experimental 2.8...

APPETISE: Air Pollution Episodes;

Long-range transport modeling of air pollution episodes.

The air quality network in the Netherlands is based on a regular grid with an interstation distance of 30 to 40 km. In or close to source areas, a higher station density is realized. Atmospheric transport models form an intrinsic part of the air quality monitoring system. The models are constructed in such a way that only routinely available meteorological input data are needed. The models are ...

Urban Air Pollution Modeling

All life form on this planet depends on clean air. Air quality not only affects human health but also components of environment such as water, soil, and forests, which are the vital resources for human development. Urbanization is a process of relative growth in a country’s urban population accompanied by an even faster increase in the economic, political, and cultural importance of cities rela...

The enhancement of local air pollution by urban CO2 domes

This Supporting Information describes the model and emissions used for this study (Section S1), feedbacks in the model (Section S2), and a description of simulations (Section S3).
