Sažetak
One of the most important advantages of the modern and state-of-the-art air quality modelling systems is the capability to
produce air pollution forecasts and particularly for ozone. In this contribution, we have applied the CMAQ (EPA) air quality
modelling system to produce ozone air quality forecasts and compare the results for the 2003 August, episode in Europe. Modern air
quality modelling systems are composed by a complete, modern and robust mesoscale meteorological model and a chemical
transport module. Two mesoscale meteorological models are used in this application: a) the well-known MM5 model developed by
PSU/NCAR (USA) and the next generation b) mesoscale model WRF. The MM5/WRF-chemical transport model requires emission
data sets according to the grid spatial and temporal resolution. In this application we have considered a model domain of more than
5000 x 5000 km with 27 km of spatial resolution, centered over Madrid city (Spain) and covering a substantial part of the North of
Africa and most of the Western European region. We have used the 5-10, August, 2003 period where maximum ozone values reach
around 300
