Recent evidence has demonstrated that the pollutant recirculation can play an important role in leading to high ozone $(O_3)$ concentrations. In this study, the MM5-CAMx air quality modeling system was applied to simulate the pollutant recirculation and identify the transport of pollution during the high $O_3$ event (the maximum $O_3$ of 195 ppb) observed in the Greater Seoul Area (GSA) on $1{\sim}4$ June in 2004. The results showed a weak northeasterly synoptic wind during the night and early morning moved the air parcels containing the locally emitted urban pollution to the coast, which contributed to enhance $O_3$ formation in the southwest part of the GSA. As the sea breeze developed and started to penetrate inland in the late afternoon, the rapid build-up of $O_3$ concentration was found in the southwest coastal area due to the recirculation of the polluted air loaded with high level $O_3$. The simulated backward trajectories and observations at coastal sites confirmed the recirculation of pollutant with the late sea breeze is the dominant factor affecting the occurrence of high $O_3$ concentrations in the southwestern GSA.

We utilize the CAMx (Comprehensive Air Quality Model with eXtensions) system and the PSAT (Particulate Source Apportionment Technology) diagnostic tool to determine the $PM_{2.5}$ concentration and to perform its source apportionment in the southeastern region of South Korea. For a year-long simulation, eight local authorities in the region such as Pohang, Daegu, Gyeongju, Ulsan, Busan-Gimhae, Gosung-Changwon, Hadong, and all remaining areas in Gyeongsangnam-do, are selected as source areas based on the emission rates of $NO_x$, $SO_x$, VOC, and primary PM in CAPSS (Clean Air Policy Support System) 2013 emissions inventory. The CAMx-PSAT simulation shows that Pohang has the highest $PM_{2.5}$ self-contribution rate (25%), followed by Hadong (15%) and Busan-Gimhae (14%). With the exception of Pohang, which has intense fugitive dust emissions, other authorities are strongly affected by emissions from their neighboring areas. This may be measured as much as 1 to 2 times higher than that of the self-contribution rate. Based on these estimations, we conclude that the efficiency of emission reduction measures to mitigate $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations in the southeastern region of South Korea can be maximized when the efforts of local or regional emission controls are combined with those from neighboring regions. A comprehensive control policy planning based on the collaboration between neighboring jurisdictional boundaries is required.

The AIRWARE System was developed from one of the EUREKA PROJECT E!3266-EUROENVIRON WEBAIR System. The AIRWARE can nowcast and forecast the air quality of Seoul and Gyeonggi-do regions. To nowcast and forecast concentration of pollutants, MM5, AERMOD/CAMx, and SMOKE Models were used for each meteorologic data, measured data, and emission data. All DB were constructed for 2001 year. The episode analysis and time series analysis were accomplished to analyze the AIRWARE reliability. The simulated results were very well agreed with measured result for measured pollutants and meteorological data. The developed AIRWARE system can analyze with real-time, support web-based air quality information. This information can used with policy data to manage the air quality and prepare reduction plan in air impact assessment or air environmental plan.

본 연구에서는 새롭게 개발된 식생의 BVOCs 배출계수를 기반으로 MEGANv2.1을 구동 후 BVOCs 배출량을 산출하여 질소산화물과의 결합을 통해 대류권 오존농도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 분석하고 그에 대한 신뢰성을 검토하고자 한다. BVOCs 대상물질은 이소프렌(Isoprene)과 모노테르펜(Monoterpenes)으로 한정하였고, 모델링 도메인의 공간적 범위는 남한지역을 포함하는 한반도의 남부(위도 : 32.8N~39.3N, 경도 : 123.4E~130.9E)와, 시간은 2008년 5월 1일부터 6월 30일까지를 대상으로 하였다. 식생 BVOCs 배출 모델의 입력자료를 생성하기 위해 토지피복 자료는 MODIS (MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer)의 MCD12Q1 (Land Cover type 5, PFT)와 환경부의 중분류 토지피복도를 사용하였고, 엽면적지수 자료는 MODIS의 MCD15A2를 사용하였다. 또한, 인위적 활동에 의한 배출량을 산출하기 위해 사용된 모델은 SMOKE-Asia 1.20 버전(Woo et al., 2009)이며, 오존농도를 모의하기 위해 CAMx v6.0 모델을 사용하였다. 연구의 진행은 1) 기존에 우리나라에서 측정된 식생 배출 값들을 조사하여 새로운 식생 배출계수를 BVOCs 배출모델에 적용하고, 2) GIS S/W을 이용하여 식생 배출모델(MEGAN)에 사용되는 입력자료를 생성하고, 3) MEGANv2.1을 구동하여 식생 배출량을 산출하고, 4) 인위적 배출을 산출하는 모델(SMOKE-Asia)을 구동하여 나온 인위적 배출량과 식생 배출량을 결합하여 대기화학 수송 모델(CAMx)의 입력자료로 사용하고, 5) 대기화학 수송 모델에서 구동된 오존농도의 결과 값을 실제 측정 값과 비교하여 식생 배출량 결과의 적정성에 대해 검토하였다. CAMx 모델을 통해 5개의 시나리오(인위적+식생 VOCs 배출 시나리오 4개 : A, B, C, D / 인위적 VOCs 배출 시나리오 1개 : E)에 대해 오존 생성농도를 비교한 결과, 본 연구에서 새롭게 적용한 식생 배출계수와 MODIS PFT를 사용한 시나리오 C에서 오존농도가 가장 높게 모의되었고, 인위적 VOCs 배출만을 고려한 시나리오 E보다 지역별로는 최대 53ppb, 도메인 평균으로는 2ppb 정도 높게 오존농도를 모의하고 있었다. 배출계수와 토지피복지도의 변화로 인한 오존농도의 차이 중에서는 배출계수의 변화로 인한 오존농도의 변화가 더 큰 것으로 확인되었다. 오존농도에 대해 모델링한 결과를 6개 도시지역의 오존 측정망 값과 비교한 결과, 자연적 VOCs 배출량이 상대적으로 작은 대도시와 주변 도시지역에서는 시나리오에 따른 모델과 측정 값과의 결정계수 값의 변화가 작게 나타났고, 자연적 VOCs 배출량이 높은 중소 도시지역에서는 시나리오에 따른 모델과 측정 값과의 결정계수 변화가 높게 나타났다.

Numerical simulations were carried out to investigate the impact of SST spatial distribution on the result of air quality modeling. Eulerian photochemical dispersion model CAMx (Comprehensive Air quality Model with eXtensions, version 4.50) was applied in this study and meteorological fields were prepared by RAMS (Regional Atmospheric Modeling System). Three different meteorological fields, due to different SST spatial distributions were used for air quality modeling to assess the sensitivity of CAMx modeling to the different meteorological input data. The horizontal distributions of surface ozone concentrations were analyzed and compared. In each case, the simulated ozone concentrations were different due to the discrepancies of horizontal SST distributions. The discrepancies of land-sea breeze velocity caused the difference of daytime and nighttime ozone concentrations. The result of statistic analysis also showed differences for each case. Case NG, which used meteorological fields with high resolution SST data was most successfully estimated correlation coefficient, root mean squared error and index of agreement value for ground level ozone concentration. The prediction accuracy was also improved clearly for case NG. In conclusion, the results suggest that SST spatial distribution plays an important role in the results of air quality modeling on high ozone episode at coastal region.

The anthropogenic aerosols originated from the pollutant emissions in the eastern part of China and dust emitted in northwestern China in Yellow sand regions are subsequently transported via eastward wind to the Korean peninsula and then these aerosols induce high $PM_{10}$ concentrations in Korean peninsula. In order to estimate air quality considering anthropogenic and dust emissions, Comprehensive Air-quality Model with extension (CAMx) was applied to simulate $PM_{10}$ concentration. The predicted $PM_{10}$ concentrations without/with dust emissions were compared with observations at ambient air quality monitoring sites in China and Korea for 2008. The predicted $PM_{10}$ concentrations with dust emissions could depict the variation of measured $PM_{10}$ especially during Yellow sand events in Korea. The comparisons also showed that predicted $PM_{10}$ concentrations without dust emissions were under-predicted while predictions of $PM_{10}$ concentrations with dust emission were in good agreement with observations. This implied that dust emissions from desert and barren soil in southern Mongolia and northern China minimized the discrepancies in the $PM_{10}$ predictions in East Asia. The effect of dust emission on annual $PM_{10}$ concentrations in Korea Peninsula for year 2008 was $5{\sim}10{\mu}g/m^3$, which were about 20% of observed annual $PM_{10}$ concentrations.

Climate change is an important issue, with many researches examining not only future climatic conditions, but also the interaction of climate and air quality. In this study, a new version of the emissions processing software tool - Python-based PRocessing Operator for Climate and Emission Scenarios (PROCES) - was developed to support climate and atmospheric chemistry modeling studies. PROCES was designed to cover global and regional scale modeling domains, which correspond to GEOS-Chem and CMAQ/CAMx models, respectively. This tool comprises of one main system and two units of external software. One of the external software units for this processing system was developed using the GIS commercial program, which was used to create spatial allocation profiles as an auxiliary database. The SMOKE-Asia emissions modeling system was linked to the main system as an external software, to create model-ready emissions for regional scale air quality modeling. The main system was coded in Python version 2.7, which includes several functions allowing general emissions processing steps, such as emissions interpolation, spatial allocation and chemical speciation, to create model-ready emissions and auxiliary inputs of SMOKE-Asia, as well as user-friendly functions related to emissions analysis, such as verification and visualization. Due to its flexible software architecture, PROCES can be applied to any pregridded emission data, as well as regional inventories. The application results of our new tool for global and regional (East Asia) scale modeling domain under RCP scenario for the years 1995-2006, 2015-2025, and 2040-2055 was quantitatively in good agreement with the reference data of RCPs.
