Figure C‐ ‐10 displays <strong>the</strong> CAMx sppatial<br />

modell<br />

performance<br />

statistics for <strong>the</strong> senssitivity<br />

tests that<br />

were runn<br />

using <strong>the</strong> PiG P subgrid‐sscale<br />

puff moodule.<br />

For <strong>the</strong><br />

FMS stattistic,<br />

<strong>the</strong> CMMAQ<br />

Kz/BOTTT<br />

combination<br />

has <strong>the</strong> best perforrmance<br />

at 366.2%.<br />

TKE/BBOTT<br />

<strong>and</strong> TKE/PPM<br />

followed<br />

closely with<br />

FMS scorres<br />

<strong>of</strong> 36% <strong>and</strong><br />

35.6% reespectively.<br />

OB70 exhibits<br />

<strong>the</strong> pooreest<br />

performaance<br />

with 233.5%<br />

for FMS.<br />

For <strong>the</strong> FFAR<br />

statistic, ACM2/Bottt<br />

has <strong>the</strong> besst<br />

score (61. 5%) followed<br />

by TKE/BOOTT<br />

<strong>and</strong><br />

ACM2/PPPM<br />

(62.8% <strong>and</strong> a 63% resppectively).<br />

OOB70<br />

exhibitted<br />

<strong>the</strong> poorrest<br />

performmance<br />

with a 72%<br />

FAR. For <strong>the</strong> POD me etric, <strong>the</strong> TKEE/BOTT<br />

commbination<br />

performs<br />

substantially<br />

bettter<br />

than <strong>the</strong>e<br />

o<strong>the</strong>r Kz/ /advection solver s combiinations<br />

(44. .4%). Both OOB70<br />

scenariios<br />

showed t<strong>the</strong><br />

poorest<br />

performaance<br />

at 13.9%.<br />

For <strong>the</strong> TTS<br />

spatial meetric,<br />

<strong>the</strong> CMMAQ/PPM<br />

exxhibits<br />

<strong>the</strong> beest<br />

score with<br />

30.6% followed<br />

by TK KE/BOTT <strong>and</strong>d<br />

CMAQ/BOOTT(25.4%<br />

annd<br />

23.3% resspectively).<br />

OB70 again<br />

performss<br />

poorest with<br />

a TS valuee<br />

<strong>of</strong> 10.2% foor<br />

both adveection<br />

solver<br />

combinatioons.<br />

Consistent<br />

with <strong>the</strong> ETEX spatial<br />

results, <strong>the</strong>ere<br />

are muchh<br />

smaller diffferences<br />

in <strong>the</strong> model pperformancee<br />

using <strong>the</strong>e<br />

two advect tion solvers ffor<br />

<strong>the</strong> POD <strong>and</strong> TS statiistics<br />

compaared<br />

to differrences<br />

betwween<br />

Kz optionns.<br />

In summary,<br />

<strong>the</strong> effe ect <strong>of</strong> using t<strong>the</strong><br />

CAMx suubgrid<br />

scale puff modulee<br />

appears to slightly deggrade<br />

performaance<br />

in comparison<br />

to thhe<br />

NoPiG exxperiments.<br />

A similar paattern<br />

was nooted<br />

in <strong>the</strong><br />

spatial sttatistics<br />

com mpared to <strong>the</strong>e<br />

NoPiG expperiments<br />

wiith<br />

<strong>the</strong> ACM2,<br />

CMAQ, annd<br />

TKE Kz<br />

algorithmms<br />

performin ng similarly, with <strong>the</strong> oldder<br />

OB70 opption<br />

exhibiting<br />

much pooorer<br />

overalll<br />

performaance.<br />
