Data Inputs needed for Smoke Concentration

Post by Alaa_Torkey »

If I will be using the registered version of HYSPLIT, what data inputs are needed for smoke concentrations due to wildfires?

You need emissions data.
You can specify complex emissions scenarios using an EMIT-TIMES file.
https://www.ready.noaa.gov/documents/Tu ... _emit.html

HYSPLIT currently has three plume-rise options (see PLRISE in SETUP.CFG and https://acp.copernicus.org/articles/23/3083/2023/)
https://www.ready.noaa.gov/hysplitusersguide/S410.htm

On our READY web-site we use US forest service bluesky module to compute emissions https://www.airfire.org/data/bluesky.
Below is an example of emit-times file created by going to READY https://www.ready.noaa.gov/hyreg-noaa/dispasrc.pl
and choosing 'prescribed burn' as a release type.
