Simulation of the Episode of the TRACT Measurement Campaign with the EURAD Model

  • Chapter
Exchange and Transport of Air Pollutants over Complex Terrain and the Sea

Abstract

The EURAD modelling system has been used to simulate transport, chemical transformation and deposition of air pollutants in Europe [1–3]. The physical and chemical processes to describe the formation of photo-oxidants and the production of acidity are included in the modelling system. Meteorological fields are calculated by application of the NCAR/Pennstate mesocscale model MM5 [4], Emission rates are generated by using the EURAD Emission Model EEM [5]. Chemical calculations are performed with the EURAD-CTM [6]. Within TRACT the EURAD model is applied to the episode of the TRACT measurement campaign with emphasis on the second intensive measurement phase (2nd IMP).
