Data sets include information on emissions of air pollutants, description of 3-D meteorological state of the atmosphere, and output from the CMAQ model over the northern hemisphere and contiguous U.S. This dataset is not publicly accessible because: This research was conducted a part of the primary author's Ph.D. dissertation at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. All data sets were created on the UNC computers and are housed there. Since the data sets are not directly available to the EPA investigator, they are not included in ScienceHub. It can be accessed through the following means: Data sets can be accessed by contacting Dr. Sarav Arunachalam at UNC - [email protected]. Format: Model input (3D meteorological fields and 3D emission files) and output are in netcdf format. Observational data sets used are publicly available and typically available as ascii files.

This dataset is associated with the following publication: Vennam, L., W. Vizuete, K. Talgo, M. Omary, F. Binkowski, J. Xing, R. Mathur, and S. Arunachalam.
