WRAP CAMx-PSATSource Apportionment
Modeling Results
Implementation Workgroup Meeting
August 29, 2006
Source Apportionment Technique
• Regional gridded photochemical CAMx air quality aerosol model with PM Source Apportionment Technology (PSAT)
• Similar to CMAQ TSSA method used in AoH Phase I report, best available modeling analysis technique for source apportionment
• PSAT completed for 2 cases:
– Plan02c• 2000-04 average fire emissions, same time & place
• 2000-03 CAMD sources’ monthly average SOx/NOx profiles by state
– Base18b – rules on the books controls and growth
• Tracked sources of sulfate and nitrate
• Tracking organic carbon too computationally intensive
Organic Carbon Source Apportionment
• PSAT work does not include treatment of primary & secondary organic aerosols:– CMAQ already completed includes 3 OC species
• primary organic aerosols
• anthropogenic secondary organic aerosols
• biogenic secondary organic aerosols
– Analysis of these species for the various existing model runs will provide additional information on OC apportionment

• White paper describing CAMx PSAT modeling: www.cert.ucr.edu/aqm/308/docs

PSAT: 6 Source Categories
• Examples of PSAT results: “source by region”:Examples of PSAT results: “source by region”:– MV_CO = mobile sources in ColoradoMV_CO = mobile sources in Colorado– PT_CE = point sources in CENRAPPT_CE = point sources in CENRAP
PT Point sources
MV Mobile sources
ANF WRAP anthropogenic fires
Natural WRAP natural fires and biogenics
NWF Elevated fires in other RPOs
AR All other sources (non-elevated fires in other RPOs, area sources, offshore, oil & gas area sources, etc.)
Status of PSAT Modeling
• Plan02c & Base18b just completed last week• Results presented here are examples• Direct access to all results & custom displays available through
TSS - later in this talk• Results on RMC web page include:
– Preconfigured bar charts & maps of monthly average source contributions by region
– Contributing sources & regions on 20% best & 20% worst visibility days at each Class I area
• http://pah.cert.ucr.edu/aqm/308/cmaq.shtml– See: Table 2. CAMx Visibility Modeling and Source
Apportionment Results.

PSAT: Errors/Uncertainties
• Additional errors have been discovered in the emissions inventories:– Base18b non-WRAP EGU emissions were
underestimated.– PM2.5 emissions in the WRAP road dust inventory.– RNC is evaluating the effects of these errors.
Effects of non-WRAP EGU errorJuly August
September
Effect on PSAT results of non-WRAP EGU error
• Air quality prediction effects on WRAP states are relatively small.
• Small overestimate of base case progress in 2018 for eastern tier of WRAP region states.
• Base18b sufficient as starting point for development of regional haze control strategies
• Will correct non-WRAP region EGU error in “Control18” series of modeling simulations in 2007
