COUPLED WRF-VIC SIMULATION FOR

SEQUENTIAL RUNS

Simulation Domain

Decisions Made! Western-US domain:

Allows analysis of ENSO cycles Grid Cells:

12-km x 12-km Decent for representing ubran vs rural

influence on air quality Historical Simulation Period:

1979-2008, which has several ENSO periods; PDO variability too long to capture

Boundary and Initial Conditions: NARR (~32-km resolution)

Land-Use, Land-Cover Data: NLDAS2 (save Alex’s dataset for WRF-

VIC-RHESSys-- no need to recalibrate VIC yet!)

OFFLINE CMAQ SIMULATION

FOR SEQUENTIAL RUNS Purpose:

Model nitrogen deposition and evaluate how it’s modulated by ENSO cycles

Provide results to offline RHESSys and CropSyst simulations Domain & Grid Cells:

A subdomain within the WRF-VIC domain Same grid cells as WRF-VIC

Historical Simulation Period: A few ENSO cycles during the 1979-2008 period

Chemical Boundary Conditions: 1990s from global chemical transport model MOZART?

Anthropogenic Emission Inventory: 1999 or 2002 National Emissions Inventory

Bioegenic Emissions: MEGANv2.1

STATUS OF COUPLED WRF-VIC

WRF (v3.2) and VIC (v.4.0.4) has been coupled through the CESM flux coupler CPL7

Coupled WRF-VIC has been tested in a global and an Arctic domain (Chunmei Zhu, UW)

For BioEarth, need to create input data spatial data for VIC for our Western-US simulation & grid cells.

STATUS OF COUPLED WRF-CMAQ

Current release, CMAQv4.7.1, is not coupled to WRF CMAQv5.0 is supposed to be released anytime now.

Two-way coupling built into WRF v3.3 Only supports CAM and RRTMG shortwave radiation

schemes identical on-line and off-line computational paradigms with

minimal code changes flexibility in frequency of coupling

COUPLED WRF-CMAQ TEST CASE

From Wong et al., CMAS 2011 Presentation

Widespread wildfires resulted in high aerosol loading during mid/late June 2008 in California

Aerosol-radiation feedbacks resulted in reduced shortwave radaition reaching the surface

STATUS OF MEGANRECENT IMPROVEMENTS (VERSION

2.1)

U.S. landcover

high resolution (30-m) PFT (CLM scheme) and species composition for crops, trees, shrubs, grass. Integrates CDL, NLCD, FIA, NRCS data with adjusted NLCD in urban areas.

LAI data: MODIS 8-day for individual years

Biogenic VOC

Updated emission factors, emission activity parameters

Response to increasing CO2

Additional compounds

Soil emissions

Biogenic VOC: soil moisture, litterfall, temperature

Nitric oxide: soil moisture, temperature and fertilizer

Crops

Urban

STATUS OF MEGANONGOING/PLANNED ACTIVITIES

Integrating MEGAN into Bioearth

Coupling with VIC-RHESSys-CropSyst

Coupling with CESM/CLM (boundary conditions)

Improve soil nitrogen emissions (NO, NH3, N2O)

Add particles: pollen, fungal spores, bacteria, dust

Use MEGAN in BIOEARTH to identify scientific questions that can be addressed with a PNW regional field study

Landcover change (e.g. poplar plantations)

Interactions of biogenic emissions and anthropogenic pollution
