Professorship of Environmental Sensing and Modeling TUM Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical University of Munich Questions of the study: 1. How good is the performance of the WRF-GHG model in general? Ø Comparing model to case study in Berlin (cf. Hase et al, 2015) 2. Is it beneficial to use the differential column methodology (DCM) for the model analysis? Ø Comparing standard approach with DCM approach Ø Helping to understand the model results (e. g. , features of tracer emissions) Ø Cancel out the bias… Zhao et al. | May 7 th, 2019 | WRF Workshp| Munich, Germany 2

Professorship of Environmental Sensing and Modeling TUM Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical University of Munich CO 2: Influence of anthropogenic and biogenic activities XCO 2 : • Biogenic activities are dominating • Anthropogenic influence is weak (see, however, DCM analysis) Zhao et al. | May 7 th, 2019 | WRF Workshp| Munich, Germany 9
Professorship of Environmental Sensing and Modeling TUM Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical University of Munich CH 4: Influence of humane activities and soil uptake process XCH 4 : • Anthropogenic activities are dominating • Soil uptake process has almost no influence Zhao et al. | May 7 th, 2019 | WRF Workshp| Munich, Germany 10
Professorship of Environmental Sensing and Modeling TUM Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical University of Munich Differential Column Methodology (DCM): DCM is calculating differences between upwind and downwind sites • to cancel out the bias of XCH 4 • to highlight the influence of CO 2 anthropogenic activities DCM is applied using this equation : Zhao et al. | May 7 th, 2019 | WRF Workshp| Munich, Germany Chen, J. et al.
