A three-dimensional variational data assimilation system for multiple aerosol species with WRF/Chem and an application to PM<sub>2.5</sub> prediction
A three-dimensional variational data assimilation (3-DVAR) algorithm for aerosols in a WRF/Chem model is presented. The WRF/Chem model uses the MOSAIC (Model for Simulating Aerosol Interactions and Chemistry) scheme, which explicitly treats eight major species (elemental/black carbon, organic carbon...
