Some Problems of Validation and Testing of Numerical Air Pollution Models. Technical Report No. 21

摘要

Uses of deterministic and stochastic models in air pollution modeling are reviewed briefly. An analysis of the problem of validation and testing of a general air pollution numerical model is developed, and the different diagnostic checks applied in the literature are discussed in order to identify a good validation procedure in this field. A simple numerical model for the short-term real-time forecasting of CO hourly values in the St. Louis, Missouri area was developed. (ERA citation 04:043726)
