Impacts of Chemical Initial Conditions in the WRF-CMAQ Model on the Ozone Forecasts in Eastern China by Tangyan Hou, Shaocai Yu, Yaping Jiang, Xue Chen, Yibo Zhang, Mengying Li, Zhen Li, Zhe Song, Pengfei Li, Jianmin Chen, Xiaoye Zhang

“…It was found that the O3 concentrations forecasted by FNL-GFS, in which the chemical IC derived from the CMAQ simulation results by using the FNL data as IC and BC, were closer to observations in all cities than GFS-GFS, in which the chemical IC derived from the CMAQ simulation results by using the GFS data as IC and BC. The normalized mean bias (NMB) values of FNL-GFS for O3 met the benchmark (± 15%), while the NMB values of GFS-GFS in Hangzhou and Shijiazhuang did not meet the benchmark. …”
