Abstract

In this paper two mesoscale meteorological models are applied to the Lisbon region. A special concern is directed to the initial conditions and input parameterization in order to assure that equal simulation constraints were imposed to both models. Results obtained for 4 August 1992 (a typical summer day) are compared to meteorological data acquired in three monitoring stations. Both simulations show similar reactions to the mesoscale forcings that occur in the modelling region. The minor differences found between simulation and reality for the meteorological situation can cause major errors in predicting air quality.
