“…Global chemical data assimilation (e.g., Inness et al, 2015;Miyazaki et al, 2015) and emission inversion (e.g., Stavrakou et al, 2013;Miyazaki et al, 2017) would also benefit from high-resolution global CTMs through improvements in model performance (e.g., Arellano Jr. et al, 2007) and reduced spatial representation gaps between observed and simulated fields. Several previous studies (Mijling and van der A, 2012;Ding et al, 2017b;Liu et al, 2017) demonstrated the importance of high-resolution modeling in detecting small-scale NO x emission sources such as urban, new power plant, and ship emissions.…”
