Photochemistry, particles formation and cycling, and aerosol optical properties predicted by a deterministic modeling system have been evaluated through both in-situ and satellite measurements. The three- dimensional air quality modeling system NINFA/AODEM was implemented over the Po valley for the entire year 2012 with the aim to characterize the atmospheric conditions, in terms of meteorological parameters and chemical composition. In addition, NINFA/AODEM has been deeply evaluated by using measurements of size-segregated aerosol samples collected on hourly basis at the 3 different sampling sites representative of urban background (Bologna), rural background (San Pietro Capofiume) and remote high altitude station (Monte Cimone 2165 ma.s.l.).

Abstract

The three- dimensional air quality modeling system NINFA/AODEM was implemented over the Po valley for the entire year 2012 with the aim to characterize the atmospheric conditions, in terms of meteorological parameters and chemical composition. In addition, NINFA/AODEM has been deeply evaluated by using measurements of size-segregated aerosol samples collected on hourly basis at the 3 different sampling sites representative of urban background (Bologna), rural background (San Pietro Capofiume) and remote high altitude station (Monte Cimone 2165 ma.s.l.).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
