Datasets for figures and tables

Published by U.S. EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD) | U.S. Environmental Protection Agency | Metadata Last Checked: August 02, 2025 | Last Modified: 2018-12-28
Software Model simulations were conducted using WRF version 3.8.1 (available at https://github.com/NCAR/WRFV3) and CMAQ version 5.2.1 (available at https://github.com/USEPA/CMAQ). The meteorological and concentration fields created using these models are too large to archive on ScienceHub, approximately 1 TB, and are archived on EPA’s high performance computing archival system (ASM) at /asm/MOD3APP/pcc/02.NOAH.v.CLM.v.PX/. Figures Figures 1 – 6 and Figure 8: Created using the NCAR Command Language (NCL) scripts (https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/get_started.shtml). NCLD code can be downloaded from the NCAR website (https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Download/) at no cost. The data used for these figures are archived on EPA’s ASM system and are available upon request. Figures 7, 8b-c, 8e-f, 8h-i, and 9 were created using the AMET utility developed by U.S. EPA/ORD. AMET can be freely downloaded and used at https://github.com/USEPA/AMET. The modeled data paired in space and time provided in this archive can be used to recreate these figures. The data contained in the compressed zip files are organized in comma delimited files with descriptive headers or space delimited files that match tabular data in the manuscript. The data dictionary provides additional information about the files and their contents. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Campbell, P., J. Bash, and T. Spero. Updates to the Noah Land Surface Model in WRF‐CMAQ to Improve Simulated Meteorology, Air Quality, and Deposition. Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems. John Wiley & Sons, Inc., Hoboken, NJ, USA, 11(1): 231-256, (2019).
