Transcript of 2005-01-08 MANE-VU Status Report on CATT and FASTNET
MANE-VU Status Report on CATT and FASTNET R. Poirot, VT DEC, 9/30/04
CATT: Combined Aerosol Trajectory Tools
FASTNET: Fast Aerosol Sensing Tools for Natural Event Tracking
Both are Inter-RPO Projects, Conducted by CAPITA (R. Husar),
Managed for MANE-VU by:
MARAMA (Serpil Kayin, CATT) & NESCAUM (Gary Kleiman, FASTNET)
http://www.anr.state.vt.us/air/Planning/PublicDocs/FastCatMV2.ppt
Status: CATT & FASTNET have been Eaten by DataFed.Net
Within DATAFED.NET, CATT & FASTNET
are 2 of many
“Projects”
which Share Many Common
“Datasets”
which are Archived & Accessible & can be Viewed, Compared,
Exported, Analyzed & Interpreted, using a
variety of Web-Based
“Applications”
Data Catalog(s) Provide Access to Many: Fast (rapidly available), Current (near-real-time, recently archived & continuing) and Slow (historical data Like IMPROVE Aerosol & ATAD trajectories)
Data Catalogs: Aerosol, Fire, Maps, Meteorology, Emissions, Images, Events
Data Viewer:
Open & View Any File in Catalog(s).
Many Files Include Time
Series, Linked to Map –
Point & Click.
Zoom Map or Time series, Change Size,
Symbols, Variables,
Add Layers, Export Data – Copy Paste.
Data Files Accessed & Archived Specifically for FASTNET. Note Varying Start dates (1988-2004), with Most Continuing.
VIEWS_CHEM (IMPROVE Aerosol) and ATAD Trajectories (NPS) are currently used in CATT Applications

If SO4 > 15 for entire IMPROVE
network and entire period of
record (25 sites).

(7 sites)
All US sites, dv >=30
All US sites, SO4 >=15
Areas upwind of all sites for Highest dv = Highest SO4
Areas upwind of High SO4 = areas of high SO2 emissions

Kitty “How To”, for Review
CATT Future:
• Add Additional Ensemble Trajectory Metrics
• “Automatically” update as new Traj & Aerosol data are available (Kristi Gebhart has just updated ATADs for most recent IMPROVE)
• Add Additional Aerosol (STN) & Trajectory Data (Kristi is Willing to Crank ATADs for Entire STN Network – triple site density)
• Continued Support from MANE-VU, other RPOs(?) & other DataFed.Net Partners (NSF, NASA, EPA, etc.).

Aerosol Event Catalog: Distributed Web pages
• Aerosol events appear any time and place and analyzed by many organizations.
• The event info. is encoded, cataloged and accessed through Event Catalog
• Each ‘event’ is given attributes: location and time of occurrence and aerosol type (dust, smoke, haze, other)
• This allows graphic browsing of event-related information on maps and calendars and linking the info source, e.g. TNRCC.
• Ideas on the Event Catalog (content, structure, interface, maintenance, etc) are welcome.

PM-2.5 vs. ASOS Bext during 7/02 Quebec Smoke Event. Note Ratio of scales = 6:1 implying 6 m2/g for Organics (which = 1.8 OC for this smoke)
From: Allen et al. 2004 (Draft – Do Not Cite)
Preliminary RAINS Hourly Sulfate data from 5 MANE-VU sites Note August 2nd Event (MD-only) vs. August 11th Event (All sites)
8/2/04 13:00 Gridded ASOS Bext & AIRNOW PM-2.5
(Southern MANE-VU-only)
8/11/04 13:00 Gridded ASOS Bext & AIRNOW PM-2.5
(Entire MANE-VU Region)
2 Sets of ASOS Visibility Data (Expressed as VR, Bext & “Dry Bext”)SURF_MET ASOS (& meteorology) is Global, based on archived data, since 7/02 STI_ASOS is subset of 250 US-only sites, based on raw (uncensored) data, since 1/04
Both are Hourly and available in Near-Real-Time
Use Data Viewer to
Layer Various Aerosol-Related Data, including:
Surface Winds, (SURF-MET)
ASOS Bext, (STI)
PM-2.5 Mass, (AIRNOW)
Forecast SO4 (Westphal)
RAINS Continuous Mass, SO4, OC data from Mohawk Mtn. CT vs. Bext from Bradley CT Airport - using MOMO species & Bradly RH to “Reconstruct” Bext.

Mystery Peak over the Great Lake & NE Regions
The 30-day smoothing average shows the seasonality by region
The Feb/Mar PM25 peak is evident for the Northeast, Great Lakes and Great Plains
This secondary peak is absent in the South and West
Jul-Aug sulfate peak
Feb-Mar mystery peak
Feb 19 2004: • Isolated high PM25 occurs over the Midwest, Northeast and Texas• Aerosol patches are evident in AIRNOWPM25, ASOS & Fbext maps• The absence of TOMS signal indicates the lack of smoke or dust at high elevation
• The high surface wind speed over Texas, hints on possible dust storm activity
• The NAAPS model shows high sulfate over the Great Lakes, but no biomass smoke
• Possible event causes: nitrate in the Upper Midwest and Northeast, sulfate around the Great Lakes and dust over Texas
Aug 18• This episode has an intensive region in the Northeast and another in the Southeastern US• The AIRNOW, ASOS and Visibility all show similar location of elevated aerosol • Highest MODIS AOT and GASP AOT values occur over the Northeast• The surface winds indicate stagnation over the southeastern EUS
• NAAPS model predicts high sulfate in the Northeast and biomass smoke over the Southeast
• Possible causes: sulfate episode in the Northeast, smoke and sulfate in the Southeast(?)
FASTNET Future:
• Link various “image data” (photos, satellite, etc.) to “Events”,
• Add New Data (& Datasets, like RAINS) & Continue Archival,
• Link New Fast to Old Slow (IMPROVE Aerosol & Traj.) Data,
• Compare Aerosol/haze indicators to Emissions & Model Data,
• Automated “Event Detection” & Analysis Methods!
• Continued Support from MANE-VU, other RPOs(?) & other DataFed.Net Partners (NSF, NASA, EPA, etc.).
