Dataset for "Modeling the Air Quality Impacts of Future Energy Scenarios", by Shankar et al.

Published by U.S. EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD) | U.S. Environmental Protection Agency | Metadata Last Checked: August 02, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-02-05
This file describes the dataset used in the following manuscript: Shankar, U., B. N. Murphy, M. A. Weber, Y. Ou, S. J. Smith, D. H. Loughlin, C. G. Nolte, "Modeling the Air Quality Impacts of Future Energy Scenarios". This manuscript describes the linkage between a human-Earth system model and a chemical transport model to simulate the air quality impacts of potential large-scale changes in the U.S. energy system. This dataset includes emissions outputs from simulations conducted using the Global Change Analysis Model (GCAM) with state-level representation of the U.S. energy system (GCAM-USA). It also includes a script that is used to generate an emissions control file for the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) model, along with the CMAQ source code used in this study. Finally, the dataset includes Excel workbooks that contain data for some of the figures used in the manuscript, as well as postprocessed CMAQ outputs and scripts used to create other figures that appear in the manuscript.
