A Suggested Correction to the EMEP Database, Regarding the Location of a Major Industrial Air Pollution Source in Kola Peninsula

On-Line Chemistry Within WRF: Description and Evaluation of a State-of-the-Art Multiscale Air Quality and Weather Prediction Model

“…It was found that the aerosol peak of May 2-3 most probably originated from the Nikel metallurgy factory (Kola Peninsula, Russia) located about 200 km north from Värriö (Kaasik et al, 2007). Then the SILAM model was applied in a forward mode comparatively with the ECMWF and HIRLAM (FMI) meteorological datasets: EMEP emission data on sulphate and PM, sea salt emissions calculated by SILAM, emission model based on (Mårtensson et al, 2003).…”
