Zusammenfassung |
We conducted a regional-scale simulation over Northeast Asia for the year
2006 using an aerosol chemical transport model, with time-varying lateral
and upper boundary concentrations of gaseous species predicted by a global
stratospheric and tropospheric chemistry-climate model. The present one-way
nested global-through-regional-scale model is named the Meteorological
Research Institute–Passive-tracers Model system for atmospheric Chemistry
(MRI-PM/c). We evaluated the model's performance with respect to the major
anthropogenic and natural inorganic components, SO42−,
NH4+, NO3−, Na+ and Ca2+ in the air, rain and
snow measured at the Acid Deposition Monitoring Network in East Asia (EANET)
stations. Statistical analysis showed that approximately 40–50 % and
70–80 % of simulated concentration and wet deposition of SO42−,
NH4+, NO3−and Ca2+ are within factors of 2 and 5
of the observations, respectively. The prediction of the sea-salt originated
component Na+ was not successful at near-coastal stations (where the
distance from the coast ranged from 150 to 700 m), because the model grid
resolution (Δx=60 km) is too coarse to resolve it. The simulated
Na+ in precipitation was significantly underestimated by up to a factor
of 30. |
