SMOKE v5.0 Public Release (June 2023)

Movesmrg Enhancements

New feature to generate the temperature-bin-specific pregridded hourly emissions for Mrggrid to efficiently generate CMAQ-ready gridded hourly emissions
- OUTPUT_EMIS_TABLE_YN [default: N]
  : Define whether output temperature-bin precomputed gridded hourly emissions tables or not (Not applicable for RPP mode). Find the details on how the temperature-bin-specific pregridded hourly emissions approach can work for your modeling runs [CMAQ-MetEmis Dynanic Coupler Development Document].
  : MCIP meteorology inputs are not required. CMAQ-ready gridded hourly emissions can be computed by Mrggrid using the MCIP gridded temperature at 2 meters.
- MIN_TEMP_EMIS_TABLE [default: 0.0]
  : Define the lowest temperature for precomputed emissions table output file when OUTPUT_EMIS_TABLE_YN is set to Y.
- MAX_TEMP_EMIS_TABLE [default: 120.0]
  : Define the highest temperature for precomputed emissions table output file when OUTPUT_EMIS_TABLE_YN is set to Y.
- TEMP_INCREMENT_EMIS_TABLE [default: 5.0]
  : Define the temperature bin increment for precomputed emissions table output file when OUTPUT_EMIS_TABLE_YN is set to Y.
USE_MOVES4_NOX_ADJ_EQS [default: N]
: Use the MOVES4 NOx humidity correction equation or not

Mrggrid Enhancements

Generate the CMAQ-ready gridded hourly emissions for MOVES onroad mobile sources except for RPP mode. This feature can be enabled when the column B in the Mrggrid FILELIST input file is defined as "METEMIS". Optionally, the column C can be enabled to apply NOx humidity correction of MOVES mobile emissions by fuel type ("GASOLINE" or "DIESEL").

Gentpro Enhancements

Generate county-level [average|sum] meteorology inputs for the Farm Emissions Model (FEM)
- AVG_RAW_OUTPUT_YN [default: N]
  : Define whether Gentrpo outputs average raw meteorology variables (temperature; wind speed; etc) or not
- SUM_RAW_OUTPUT_YN [default: N]
  : Define whether Gentrpo outputs total raw meteorology variables (e.g., precipitation) or not
New feature to generate daily and monthly temporal profiles for recreational RWC SCCs based on the weekly temporal profile
- RECREATIONAL_RWC_TPRO_YN [default: N]
  : Define whether Gentrpo generates recreational RWC temporal profiles or not
- LOW_RWC_TEMP_THRESHOLD [default: 50.0]
  : Define the lower-end ambient temperature threshold value that can occur recreational RWC emissions from the inventory sources (recreational wood burning; firepits, chimineas, etc.)
- HIGH_RWC_TEMP_THRESHOLD [default: 80.0]
  : Define the higher-end ambient temperature threshold value that can occur recreational RWC emissions from the inventory sources (recreational wood burning; firepits, chimineas, etc.)
- Updated county-level temperature threshold (low and high) input file [RWC_COUNTY_TEMP]
  : Added an additional column (3rd column) for county-level higher-end temperature thresholds for RWC-related inventory sources.
New prefix flag for temporal profile IDs using setting PREFIX_TPRO (up to 3 characters)

Various Updates

Normbeis4

Add optional check of landuse sums controlled by setting CHECK_LUSE
Add checks for units in landuse and biomass files

Smkinven

Updated to support new processing flow for CEMS data
New hourly activity (HOURACT) variable added to the CEMS data for hourly temporal allocation of CEMS inventory sources

Smkmerge

Use BTU/hr as output units for HFLUX

Smkreport

Add new BY UNIT report option

Temporal

Updated the temporal assignment hierarchy to allow for partial FIPS matches when SCC is blank or null without setting the FULLSCC_ONLY flag to TRUE

SMOKE v4.8.1 Public Release (January 29, 2021)

SMOKE Digital Object Identifier (DOI):

SMOKE-MOVES Integration Tool Development

1. New MOVES RatePerStart (RPS) Mode

New feature in Movesmrg for users to model Off-Network Start Exhaust and Crankcase Start Exhaust processes that are currently modeled under RatePerVehicle (RPV) mode.
Unit of RPS emission rate is mass per vehicle-engine start (grams/vehicle-start).
New "STARTS" activity inventory is required to compute RPS emissions with RPS emission rates.
RPS_MODE[default: N] : Estimates off-network RPS emissions from engine starts.

2. New Off-Network Idling (ONI) Mode

New feature in Movesmrg for users to model idling emissions from parking lot, distribution centers and other off-network spaces.
Previously modeled under RatePerDistance (RPD) mode with roadtypes=1 (off-network) and speedbin=0 (speed=zero).\
Unit of ONI emission rate is mass per vehicle-idling hour (grams/hour).
New "IDLING" activity inventory is required to compute ONI emissions with ONI emission rates.
ONI_MODE [default: N] : Estimates off-network idling emissions from parking, and distribution centers.

New Source Apportionment Regroup Tool

New Source Apportionment Regroup Tool will allow users to assign existing Source Apportionment (SA)-ready gridded hourly emissions and stack groups files from SMOKE to new SA group IDs.
Requires the sector-specific SA-ready gridded hourly emissions and stack group files and new regroup mapping input file called REGROUP_GROUPS.
Check out the Coordinating Research Council (CRC) A-119 Full Technical Report for the details.
Download the complete use case package data file for the SA regroup tool from the CRC Data Share Site.

BEIS v3.7 Enhancements

New BEIS Emission Factors (BEISFAC) and BELD5 landuse input files are required.
Latest BEISFAC and North America region BELD5 (1km x 1km) input files for BEIS v3.7 can be found from the CMAS Data Warehouse.
Custom BELD5 input file over your modeling domain can be developed using new updated Aggwndw utility program in SMOKE that can optionally aggregate non-mass values with the setting of AGGREGATE_EMIS_YN = N.

Laypoint Updates

Update to treat new WRF hybrid-vertical coordinate type (-999) as existing sigma (7) coordinate.
Update to enforce fire bottom plume height starting from surface layer.
New FIRE_BOTTOM_LAYER_1_YN [Default: Y]: Define the bottom of fire plume as model layer 1.
