SMOKE4AERMOD Development

  • Generates customized Smkreport summary reports based on the latest U.S. EPA NEI inventories for SMOKE4AERMOD post-processing scripts that generate AERMOD helper input files for various inventory sectors. Following sectors are covered to support upcoming U.S. EPA NATA 2014 studies:
  • Supported Inventory Sectors: Nonpoint, Nonpoint oil and gas (np_oilgas), Point EGU (ptegu), Point Non-IPM (ptnonipm), Point Airports (ptairport), Nonroad, Onroad (RPD, RPV, RPH, RPP), Residential Wood Combustions (RWC), Commercial Marine Vessel (CMV) and Rail
  • SMOKE4AERMOD Design Documents describing how to develop sector-specific AERMOD helper input files for AERMOD chi/Q mode
    Bug fixes since the SMOKE version 4.5 release in April 2017

Elevpoint Updates

  • Bug fix to avoid stacksize memory limit issue by reducing the local array size
  • Added NAICS code into an elevated source grouping supplimentary report (REPPELV)

Grdmat Updates

  • Bug fix for a proper reprojection to the same latitude-longitude projection pregridded emissions like EDGAR, RCP and HTAP global emissions input files

Movesmrge Updates

  • Reset any negative emission factors from MOVES lookup tables and give a warning message

Mrgpt Updates

  • Allows users to merge the CMAQ inline-ready 2-D point sources emissions (INLN) and elevated source stack group (STACK_GROUPS) files to generate 3-D hourly emissions for their quality assurances checks

Smkinven Updates

  • Bug fix to support a full or partial annual/daily/hourly TOG and HAPs integration

SMOKE Enhancements and Bug fixes

  • Expansion of the length of all stationary point source characteristics (i.e., Facility ID, Unit ID, Release point ID, and Process ID) from 15 characters to 20 characters
  • Treat stationary point source location coordinates as double precision to improve the accuracy of source locations within the modeling domain
  • Increased the length of Source Type (SRCTYPE) from 2 characters to 3 characters
