Integrated Modelling Systems in Australia

Fully integrated mesoscale meterology–photochemical air pollution modelling has been underway in Australia since 1999. The focus has principally been on PC platforms using a graphical user interface, with performance and accuracy as key objectives to compare with statistical air quality objectives. Runs involving predictions for every hour for a year are commonplace.
