Starting with [[GEOS-Chem v9-01-02]], we have implemented monthly mean aircraft emissions from the FAA inventory.  This inventory was developed by the FAA and was adapted for GEOS-Chem by [mailto:sbarrett@mit.edu Steven Barrett], [mailto:steveyim@mit.edu Steve Yim], [mailto:jaminkoo@mit.edu Jamin Koo] et al from MIT.

An updated version of the AEIC aircraft emissions (named '''AEIC 2019''') was introduced in [[GEOS-Chem 13.4.0]].
  
This inventory contains the following species:

Monthly mean aircraft emissions were generated based on 2005 scheduling data from the [https://lae.mit.edu/datasets/ Aviation Emissions Inventory v2.0], developed by [mailto:nsimone@mit.edu Nick Simone] and based on research by [mailto:mejs@mit.edu Marc Stettler] under [mailto:sbarrett@mit.edu Steven Barrett]. These were implemented into GEOS-Chem by [mailto:seastham@mit.edu Sebastian D. Eastham].

Black and organic carbon (BC/OC) are determined based on an emissions index of 0.03 g/kg fuel burn; sulfur emissions (sulfur dioxide and sulfates) are calculated assuming a fuel sulfur content of 600 ppm by mass and a sulfur conversion efficiency of 2%.

Due to the [[Lightning_NOx_emissions#The common block bug fix|common block error described by Lee Murray]], in [[GEOS-Chem v7-04-13]] we have added a new module array (EMIS_AC_NOx) to "aircraft_nox_mod.f".  The EMIS_AC_NOx array will be referenced in routine "setemis.f", which will pass the aircraft NOx emissions to the SMVGEAR solver.  The old common-block array "GEMISNOX" will be removed.

Revision as of 21:44, 16 September 2022

This page describes the aircraft emissions inventories used by GEOS-Chem.

An updated version of the AEIC aircraft emissions (named AEIC 2019) was introduced in GEOS-Chem 13.4.0.

AEIC emissions inventory

The original AEIC inventory was retired in GEOS-Chem 13.4.0.

Monthly mean aircraft emissions were generated based on 2005 scheduling data from the Aviation Emissions Inventory v2.0, developed by Nick Simone and based on research by Marc Stettler under Steven Barrett. These were implemented into GEOS-Chem by Sebastian D. Eastham.

The following are gridded at a horizontal resolution of 1° x 1°. The emissions are vertically resolved in 60.9 m (200 ft) increments up to 1000 ft, and 1000 ft increments beyond that. The emissions are stored in NetCDF files and read in by aeic_mod.F:

  1. Fuelburn
  2. CO
  3. Hydrocarbons
  4. NOx

Black and organic carbon (BC/OC) are determined based on an emissions index of 0.03 g/kg fuel burn; sulfur emissions (sulfur dioxide and sulfates) are calculated assuming a fuel sulfur content of 600 ppm by mass and a sulfur conversion efficiency of 2%. The older aircraft NOx emissions have been removed wholesale, while the older sulfur emissions are enabled if AEIC emissions are disabled.
