Abstract

This modelling study simulates the street-scale resolution air quality for the West Midlands (902 km2), UK using a local scale dispersion model (i.e. ADMS-Urban). This model uses a physics-based approach to capture the characteristics of the atmospheric boundary layer, and an advanced street canyon module to represent street canyon effects. It can represent the full range of source types (e.g. grid, point and road sources) occurring in an urban area at high resolution. The model was evaluated against local air quality measurement data with satisfactory agreement. High resolution air quality maps (at 10 m × 10 m resolution) over the West Midlands were generated.
