Updated 16 March 2010:

To include corrections to ancillary files AMGREF and SRGDESC that were posted 

with July 2009 version.

This file describes the SMOKE ancillary inputs for EPA's Version 4 emissions

modeling platform, based on the 2005 NEI v2. This includes data files to

support EPA's 2005ak_05b and 2005ck_05b cases. For more information on these

cases and exceptions to what we provide, please refer to the readme file for

inventories.

i) For onroad mobile, we provide the NMIM-based "2005ah_tox_05b" emissions.

The EPA version of the platform includes MOVES-based emissions for 

gasoline

onroad vehicles, but these are not yet available.

ii) We also provide ancillary data specific to the model evaluation version

of the platform (case name 2005ak_05b), which uses different emissions for

the ptipm and ptfire sectors. These are noted where provided.

This readme describes three zip files:

1) ancillary_2005v4_smokeformat.zip: SMOKE input ancillary files with the

exception of spatial surrogates.

2) new36km_surg_2005v4_smokeformat.zip: New 36km spatial surrogates in SMOKE

input format. The remaining 36km surrogates can be found at:

ftp://ftp.epa.gov/EmisInventory/2002v3CAP/ancillary_smoke/

3) new36km_surg_2005v4_smokeformat.zip: New 36km spatial surrogates in SMOKE

input format. The remaining 36km surrogates can be found at:

ftp://ftp.epa.gov/EmisInventory/2002v3CAP/ancillary_smoke/

only).

HAPs to compute NONHAPVOC or NONHAPTOG. This particular nhapexclude file

applies to sectors where no integration occurs for all sources (ptipm,

ptnonipm, ptfire, and avefire). See the SMOKE documentation for more:

http://www.smoke-model.org/version2.5/html/ch08s10s06.html

sector is subject to VOC HAP integration. This file is used for "full"

integration over all sources in the sector. The onroad mobile and seca_c3
