![Page 3: PM mapping in Scotland, 2007](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813578550346895d9cdc53/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Background
2004• Modelled concentrations for multiple pollutants for Scotland• Scotland met data (RAF Leuchars) and Scotland calibration used• Model performance no improvement on UK model• Too few sites for robust calibration and verification
2005• Remodelling undertaken in hope that more sites would help• Concluded that still more sites desireable
2006• No new modelling undertaken but assessed Scottish monitoring against UK
model output• Performance good
![Page 4: PM mapping in Scotland, 2007](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813578550346895d9cdc53/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What did we do this year?
Modelled PM only
Take advantage of new Scottish monitoring campaign – genuine gravimetric PM for direct comparison with legislation
Outputs• PM10 and PM2.5 1x1 km background map• Modelled concentrations for major road links
Checked calibration performance
Assessed outputs against objectives relevant to Scottish Government
![Page 5: PM mapping in Scotland, 2007](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813578550346895d9cdc53/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Scottish monitoring
Scottish Government funded expansion of monitoring campaign in 2007
Used Partisol analysers for daily gravimetric concentration
PM10
•10 sites
PM2.5
•8 sites
Used to calibrate model

Modelling process
Generalised description presented here• Full details in annual report on UK AQ Archive:http://www.airquality.co.uk/archive/reports/cat09/0807231621_dd12006mapsrep_v2.pdf
Particulate matter• Complex pollutant• Poorly understood• Many components, each with a degree of uncertainty!
Contributions to the annual mean model• Point sources – big and small point sources• Area sources – the largest contribution• Long-range transport primary – TRACK model output• Sea salt – the only ‘natural’ component in the model• SOA – output from HARM model• SIA – nitrate, sulphate, ammonium

Area type kernels
Formerly used 2 dispersion kernels
• Road traffic kernel• Non-road traffic kernel
Multiple calibrations for different land cover
• Large conurbations• Elsewhere
Now use• multiple kernels for different area
types• single calibration• Better describe dispersion over
different terrain• Less reliance on empirical
relationship

Additional contributions
Long range transport primary • TRACK model• Lagrangian statistical model• 10x10km grid
Secondary organic aerosol• HARM/ELMO model (Lancaster University)• Lagrangian model – changing compositions of air parcels en route to designated receptor
sites
Secondary inorganic aerosol• 28 rural sites measuring sulphate, nitrate and ammonium• Interpolating using Krigging on a 5x5km grid• Split between fine and coarse fractions
Fe and Ca rich dusts• Emission not included in NAEI so formerly part of residual in model• Distribution based on population and vehicle km travelled
Sea salt• Same method as SIA, using chloride measurements on a 5x5km grid• Split between fine (27%) and coarse (73%) – from Harrison & Yin (2006), APEG (1999)

Like pollutants examined in previous years – a Scotland-specific model provides mixed results
Difference between Scotland-specific and UK models is not very large and is attributable to calibration rather than met variation
Scotland-specific model results in generally lower PM10 than UK model but are higher PM2.5. This is due to the calibration factors
derived from the monitoring data.
Largest differences between models was across urban areas – probably due to greater urban representation in UK model than in Scotland-specific model (predominantly rural calibration)
Conclusions
![Page 26: PM mapping in Scotland, 2007](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56813578550346895d9cdc53/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Will need discussion with and direction from Scottish Government
No PM mapping possible for 2008
Recommend:• Comparison of Scottish monitoring against UK model outputs – Scottish
verification
• Interrogation of UK model outputs for values relevant to Scotland – Scotland AQS values, EU limit values.
• These will provide confidence in UK outputs for Scotland
• Help identify areas of exceedence for further policy focus and action
Future work
