Webinars
March 20, 2019 EPRI Great Lakes Ozone Study
Presenters
Richard McNider (U. Alabama at Huntsville) and Talat Odman (Georgia Tech)
Abstract
Dr. Dick McNider of UAH presents his team’s work on improving WRF meteorology simulations over Lake Michigan. The purpose of their research was to optimize WRF for driving regional air quality model simulations. His analysis focuses on maximizing the skill of the model in simulating boundary layer dynamics over the lake. Dr. Talat Odman of Georgia Tech presents work on evaluating and improving CMAQ regional air quality model ozone simulations over Lake Michigan. He presents the results of a series of modeling experiments to test the model response to changes in emissions, photochemical mechanism, and ozone deposition rates.
