“…The DMI operational system also includes the offline version (the so-called CAC system), which is used operationally for CWF (e.g. in GEMS) and the Lagrangian model DERMA (Danish Emergency Response Model of the Atmosphere; Sørensen et al, 2007) for emergency preparedness modelling.…”

Abstract. Numerical models that combine weather forecasting and atmospheric chemistry are here referred to as chemical weather forecasting models. Eighteen operational chemical weather forecasting models on regional and continental scales in Europe are described and compared in this article. Topics discussed in this article include how weather forecasting and atmospheric chemistry models are integrated into chemical weather forecasting systems, how physical processes are incorporated into the models through parameterization schemes, how the model architecture affects the predicted variables, and how air chemistry and aerosol processes are formulated. In addition, we discuss sensitivity analysis and evaluation of the models, user operational requirements, such as model availability and documentation, and output availability and dissemination. In this manner, this article allows for the evaluation of the relative strengths and weaknesses of the various modelling systems and modelling approaches. Finally, this article highlights the most prominent gaps of knowledge for chemical weather forecasting models and suggests potential priorities for future research Published by Copernicus Publications on behalf of the European Geosciences Union.

“…Liao et al (2005) developed a model to simulate major urban accidents and respectively constructed emergency preparedness bases for different functional areas in cities and different types of accidents. Sørensen et al (2007) integrated the Danish emergency response model of the atmosphere (DERMA) with the Accident Reporting and Guidance Operational System (ARGOS) nuclear decision support system mainly for nuclear emergency preparedness purposes. However, these studies mainly focused on sudden environmental pollution and paid less attention on analysis of routine engineering plans.…”

Monitoring on urban water environment and analysis of engineering improvement measures are intricate and time-consuming tasks. In previous studies, the integration of hydrodynamic and water quality models and geographical information system (GIS) usually takes three approaches: loose coupling, tight coupling, and full coupling. However, this paper adopted a special loose coupling approach—case-based reasoning (CBR) to develop an integrated decision support system. This was characterized by invoking the case base stored in the GIS platform as the output of the model. The fused capability of model’s water quality predication and strong spatial data processing analysis of GIS can be realized at the same time by integration. The functionality of the integrated system was illustrated through a case study of Chaohu, a medium-sized city in China, which includes case retrieval, result interpretation, and the visual display in the GIS platform. Results verified the feasibility and operability of the developed method. As a useful tool, the integrated decision support system makes it simpler and more convenient for decision makers to make decisions efficiently and quickly.

“…Consequently, they are more and more implemented as an element of nuclear emergency response (see for e.g. SØrensen et al, 2007). This evolution of the last 25 years can be illustrated by their use by several organizations across the world during the Japanese nuclear disaster in 2011 as support tools to assess the contaminated areas and help supporting decisions regarding population protection countermeasures (Benamrane et al, 2013).…”
