In SIM-air working paper #40-2021, we defined (a) the size of NCAP city airsheds (b) the recommended number of ambient air quality monitoring sites in an airshed (c) the operational sampling frequency to support receptor-based source apportionment studies. These resources are necessary for strengthening the monitoring needs of an airshed to track pollution levels, to conduct receptor-model-based source apportionment studies, and to support long-term air quality management plans.
The table below presents details at the city level as a Google Earth enabled KML file with grid information and as an infograph with airshed related information on geospatial spread, population, and monitoring needs.
