An Investigation into the Impact of Urbanization in China: Enhancing Meteorological Research and Forecasting Models – Chemistry

Abstract

Direct, "This study examines how land use change affects pollution concentrations in two rapidly developing areas of China: the Yangtze River Delta and the Jing-Jin-Ji (Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei) region, using both direct and indirect feedback mechanisms. Air quality predictions in rapidly developing areas require more up-to-date land use data. WRF-Chem's default land use data collection is based on the US Geological Survey's (USGS) Advanced Very High-Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data from April 1992 to March 1993 at a spatial resolution of 1 km. This study modifies WRF-Chem to enable the updating of land use data sets and the method is demonstrated using data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) in the mid-2000s. The USGS and NASA’s Terra Land-cover maps from the Aqua satellites (MODIS) are used to analyze land-use data in order to "simulate atmospheric and chemical fields in these two regions during the 1990s and investigate the influence of urbanization."
