Atmospheric Modeling System

AMS turns meteorology and emissions into operational air-quality simulations.

A web-based modeling platform for running analysis and forecast dispersion simulations with WRF, CALMET, CALPUFF and LAPMOD, from input setup to georeferenced results.

Modeling chain

One platform for forecast and retrospective analysis.

AMS can be configured for any location worldwide. It automates meteorological modeling, prepares dispersion-model inputs and keeps analysis workflows traceable through a web interface.

01

Meteorology

WRF runs every six hours with GFS initial and boundary conditions from NOAA. CALMET then uses WRF output through CALWRF to generate diagnostic meteorological fields.

02

Dispersion

Users can execute CALPUFF or LAPMOD simulations for known sources, selected domains and discrete receptors, in automated forecast or manual analysis mode.

03

Results

The system post-processes statistics of interest, generates georeferenced maps and lets users query map locations to extract time series.

Operational modes

From compliance assessments to daily forecast runs.

AMS supports routine industrial forecasting, event reconstruction and comparison against monitoring networks.

Forecast mode

  • Automated dispersion simulations one or more times per day.
  • Useful for industrial plants and known emission scenarios.
  • Supports proactive evaluation of potential impacts.

Analysis mode

  • Retrospective simulations using archived meteorology.
  • Useful for compliance checks and event assessment.
  • Can ingest measured source and air-quality data.

Models included

A web layer over proven atmospheric models.

AMS connects forecasting, diagnostic meteorology and dispersion models in a repeatable operational chain.

Interface

Maps, forms and model runs in one workspace.

The AMS interface supports source placement on maps, source-parameter editing, domain and receptor setup, model selection, execution and output review.
