Meteo / Pollution

 

CrossGrid, an IST Programme R&D project supports a Grid infrastructure for various meteorological applications, from data mining using large distributed databases, through atmosphere and ocean modelling for warning and diagnoses of the sea state to air pollution simulation.

The interactive use and scalability of Grid technology is being investigated, in order to meet atmospheric research and application user community requirements. The specification of typical requirements for atmospheric research, as well as their development and implementation, are the core of this activity. These components are being validated within CrossGrid through prototyping and consolidated by running specific testbeds. A complete application involves the Grid tools that enable remote, coordinated feedback from atmospheric models and wave models, based on local coastal data and forced by wind fields generated by atmospheric components of the system. Atmospheric pollution chemistry studies will also be included.

Air Pollution Modeling
STEM-II is an Eulerian air quality model which is being used together with a meteorological prediction model to simulate the environment of As Pontes Power Plant, A Coruña, Spain
 
Input data
 
Initial chemical concentrations, topological and meteorogical data (temperature, cloud base, surface precipitation rates)
 
Output data
 
Gaseous and aqueous concentration fields of each modelled substance, reaction rates, amount deposited and ionic concentrations

Estimation of sea conditions
in different basins of the Baltic Sea
The system employs the CrossGrid platform of Grid services and tools to seamlessly connect together experts, data and computing resources needed for different meteorological applications. The system will integrate advanced communication techniques, allowing air pollution and maritime experts to run simulations with different parameters and analyze the impact of weather conditions on air and sea pollution.
 
The partnership
 
The Interdisciplinary Center for Mathematical and Computational Modelling, Warsaw University, Poland, the University of A Coruña and the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientifices, Spain, together with the University of Cantabria, are responsible for the development of the system within the CrossGrid project.

CrossGrid, an EC-funded R&D project, involves 21 partners and is coordinated by CYFRONET, the Academic Computing Center in Krakow, Poland. The dissemination and exploitation of the results of the CrossGrid project is coordinated by Algosystems S. A., an IT company based in Athens, Greece.
