Efforts are underway to plan for a major field data collection, data analysis, and regional modeling program over virtually all of the southern half of the state of California during the summer of 1997. Referred to as the Southern California Air Quality Study (SCAQS097), this program has several major objectives among which are the following: acquire the emissions, air quality, and meteorological data needed to adapt, evaluate, and apply state-of-the-science models to the region. Once refined and thoroughly evaluated, these models are expected to serve as the framework for ozone and PM-10 control planning for the next decade. In response to the SCAQS-97 program, the authors have adapted the most highly refined, publicly available, regional air quality, meteorological, and emissions models to the SCAQS-97 domain using the August 1987 SCAQS episode as the prototype. The main objective of this project is to put in place an internally consistent set of regional models that are suited to aid in the design of data collection activities and to help identify areas of needed emissions, meteorological, and photochemical model refinement. This paper presents preliminary results of the adaptation of the Emissions Modeling System version 1995 (EMS-95) to the SCAQS-97 region. The focus of this paper is to demonstrate the capabilities of EMS-95 to support base case emissions estimates development for use in air quality models.
