The long-range transport of regional atmospheric pollutants (acidic pollutants, dust, haze, ozone, etc.) has a significant impact on Taiwan's air quality during certain seasons. Especially from the aspect of AQI, it could affect the effectiveness of present air pollution control policies. A synergic approach of applying an atmospheric and air quality forecast modeling system, developing remote sensing techniques and using the satellite data has been established, in order to assess the impact of long-range transported pollutants on the air quality in Taiwan. This project also continues to explore long-term climate variability, short-term weather patterns, and pollutant emissions in East Asia, quantify the background concentrations of atmospheric pollutants in East Asia and Taiwan, and their contributions to transboundary pollution in Taiwan. In addition, the WRF/CMAQ numerical model is also applied to establish a regional atmospheric transport model system. Exploiting both of model system and satellite retrieval data to evaluate and predict the impact of local and transboundary atmospheric pollutants in Taiwan. The outcome of the project will further establish the operational methods and tools for air quality forecast and abnormal event diagnosis which can strengthen the ability of emergency response and decision-making. Besides, the project also actively expands and participates in international collaboration and is in line with the current international technology.
