SMOKE4AERMOD Development

Generates customized Smkreport summary reports based on the latest U.S. EPA NEI inventories for SMOKE4AERMOD post-processing scripts
(https://github.com/CEMPD/SMOKE/tree/master/scripts/aermod) that generate AERMOD helper input files for AERMOD chi/Q moe. Following sectors are covered to support upcoming U.S. EPA NATA 2014 studies:

  • nonpoint, nonpoint oil and gas (np_oilgas), ptegu, ptnonipm, point airports (ptairport), nonroad, onroad, -residential wood combustions (rwc), commercial marine vessel (CMV) and rail
  • Detail information about how to develop sector-specific AERMOD helper input files from SMOKE4AERMOD post-processing scripts

Smkreport Updates

  • New "BY" Command for AERMOD support runs
    For ptegu sector: AERMOD POINT PTEGU
    For ptnonipm sector: AERMOD POINT PTNONIPM
    For rest of sectors: AERMOD NONPOINT
  • New "CROSSWALK" Command for stationary point source sectors
    : Generates a supplementary cross-walk mapping output file that shows how individual inventory sources are grouped.

Smkinven Updates

  • Support a full daily/hourly TOG and HAPs integration. Along with annual inventory TOG and HAPs integration, daily and hourly inventories can be fully or partially integrated.
  • OUTPUT_LOCAL_TIME [default:N]
    Y: Process daily/hourly inventories in local time to support AERMOD ptegu sector. No time zone shift.
  • NO_STACK_REPLACE_FUGITIVE [default:N]
    Y: Skip correcting any missing and/or out-of-range stack parameters to support AERMOD point sectors (i.e., ptegu, ptairport, ptnonipm).

Temporal Updates

  • OUTPUT_LOCAL_TIME [default:N]
    Y: Process daily/hourly inventories in local time to support AERMOD ptegu sector. No time zone shift.

Spcmat Updates

  • New Fraction-enabled GSRE Input file that allows users to apply multiple chemical speciation profiles to a single inventory source. Check out the new split factor column M in GSREF input file.
  • CMB_CHKFRACS [default:Y]
    Y: Check whether the sum of multiple speciation profile split factors is equal to 1.0 or not.

Elevpoint Updates

  • ELEV_WRITE_FAKE_SRC [default:Y]
    Y: Output a fake source group when there is no an elevated source group to report.

Other bug fixes

Several minor bugs have been fixed since SMOKE v4.0 release in September 2016.
