AIR CONTROL TOOLBOX (ACT_V1.0): A FLEXIBLE SURROGATE MODEL TO EXPLORE MITIGATION SCENARIOS IN AIR QUALITY FORECASTS

Air Control Toolbox (ACT_v1.0): a flexible surrogate model to explore mitigation scenarios in air quality forecasts

We introduce the first toolbox that allows exploring the benefit of air pollution Barbell mitigation scenarios in the every-day air quality forecasts through a web interface.Chemistry-transport models (CTMs) are required to forecast air pollution episodes and assess the benefit that shall be expected from mitigation strategies.However, their comple
