Simulation of London air quality during June 2006 and

the effects of emission control scenarios

Andrea Fraser NCAS funded PhD student

Supervised by Prof. H ApSimon Prof. R Derwent

June - July 2006

A number of Air Quality events reported on the London air quality network (LAQN) website

6th-9th June Ozone 17th-18th June Ozone SO2 PM10

3rd July Ozone SO2 (incidents since 28th June)

12th-17th July Ozone SO2

25th-26th July Widespread Ozone PM NO2 SO2

Meteorology and Emissions Pre-Processing

Meteorology

Using the UK Met. Office UM data (BADC archive) processed with UM-MCIP to create CMAQ ready files

1st June to 8th July

Emissions

Processed by applying temporal factors to EMEP and NAEI (2003) emissions inventories.Natural emissions based on Biogenic Potential inventory (BPI) on EMEP grid. (Dore, Hayman et al 2003)

CMAQ v 4.5.1

Chemistry Carbon Bond IV with aqueous and aerosol chemistry

Solver Rosenbrock

3 nested grids

CMAQ Grid A1 Europe48 x 48km resolution, 24 layers Uses UM Global Meteorology at 3hr time steps

Emissions based on EMEP (2003)

Natural emissions based on Biogenic Potential inventory (BPI) on EMEP grid

NO emissions

CMAQ Grid A2 12 x 12km resolution, 24 layers Uses UM Mesoscale Meteorology at 1hr time steps (approx. 12 x 12km)

Europe emissions based on EMEP (2003) and natural emissions based on BPIUK emissions based on NAEI(2003)

NO emissions

CMAQ Grid A3 4 x 4km resolution, 24 layers Uses UM Mesoscale Meteorology at 1hr time steps (approx. 12x12km)

Europe emissions based on EMEP (2003) and natural emissions based on BPIUK emissions based on NAEI(2003)

NO emissions
