Query on emission mapping for high BC

[Ankan Sarkar]

Dear all,

I have a small query on the emission mapping. If I want to take a polluted case where the BC emission will be two times the baseline BC level, should I change the mapping for only BC species while keeping the mapping of all other species unchanged in the anthro_emis.inp file, the fire_emis.inp file, and the mozbc.input file, like in the following:

In the anthro_emis.inp file:

from emis_map =  'ECI(a)->0.1*BC',                            to         emis_map =  'ECI(a)->0.2*BC',

                              'ECJ(a)->0.9*BC',                                                             'ECJ(a)->1.8*BC',

In the fire_emis.inp file:

from wrf2fire_map ='bc -> BC;aerosol',                        to         wrf2fire_map ='bc -> 2*BC;aerosol',

In the mozbc.inp file:

from spc_map = 'eci->0.1*CB1+0.1*CB2;0.414e9',     to         spc_map =   'eci->0.2*CB1+0.2*CB2;0.414e9',

                           'ecj->0.9*CB1+0.9*CB2;0.414e9',                                      'ecj->1.8*CB1+1.8*CB2;0.414e9',

Will it be the correct approach? Can anyone please guide me?

Thanks and regards,

Ankan
