ABaCAS-SE: Air Benefit and Cost and Attainment Assessment System - Streamlined Edition

一体化大气污染控制费效及达标评估系统

Introduction 系统简介

ABaCAS-SE (Air Benefit and Cost and Attainment Assessment System: Streamlined Edition) is the software framework and that integrates the four ABaCAS decision support tools (ICET, RSM-VAT, SMAT-CE, BenMAP-CE). ABaCAS-SE presents researchers and policy makers a user-friendly interface to an integrated assessment system that connects air pollution emissions control costs with health benefits, economic impacts, and air quality attainment tests.

Functional Design 功能框架

ABaCAS-SE controls the four ABaCAS tools by running them sequentially using a master script. ICET estimates the emission costs associated with future-year control strategies. RSM-VAT/CMAQ uses the emissions reductions calculated by ICET to estimate the changes in air quality resulting from the emissions changes. SMAT-CE fuses archived ambient air monitoring data with the air quality estimates from RSM-VAT/CMAQ to assess if the emissions changes resulted in the attainment of air quality goals or standards. BenMAP-CE uses the fused air quality data generated by SMAT-CE to estimate the health and economic benefits resulting from changes in air quality. Finally, ABaCAS-SE integrates the results from the four modules to provide assessments of emissions control costs and their associated air quality, health, and economic benefits. A key output from ABaCAS-SE is the cumulative cost/benefit ratio ($ benefit per $ cost) for an emissions control strategy. ABaCAS-SE has a user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) that controls the different ABACAS tools and provides graphical and tabular analysis functions to support intuitive visualization and analysis of these assessment results.
