22 What Needs to be Done? Model Complete incorporation of bi-directional flux algorithms in CMAQ Flux studies above many different vegetation types to support new parameterization Examine regional, spatial differences/biases Reexamine model guidance vis a vis ammonia Data Develop routine NH 3 flux capability for flux ground truth Better ground truth w.r.t. ammonia (NH X ) and inorganics Surface observations with ALL inorganics on hourly basis (modernize CASTNet) Get satellite retrievals working for NH 3 Compare with models to suggest inventory improvements 23
