DMI Activities •Nuclear emergency preparedness (accidental releases of radioactivity from nuclear installations, terror acts, nuclear bombs, dirty bombs) •Nuclear risk assessment •Chemical emergency preparedness (accidental releases of hazardous chemicals from industry or toxic fire, terror acts) •Preparedness for bio-terror •Veterinary emergency preparedness (airborne animal diseases) •Volcanic ash dispersion modelling
Meteorological Models A semi- operational version of DMI-HIRLAM with 1.4 km resolution and covering Denmark is run on a test basis. In the process of implementing urban features in the model.
Atmospheric Long-Range Dispersion Model Danish Emergency Response Model of the Atmosphere (DERMA): • 3-D atmospheric long-range dispersion model (> 20 km) developed at DMI • Developed mainly for nuclear emergency preparedness • Stochastic Lagrangian model using a puff diffusion parameterization • Dry and wet deposition, particle size dependent • Radioactive decay • Simultaneous calculation for several isotopes • Simultaneous calculations for several release points • Source term estimation based on monitoring data • Uses data from the DMI-HIRLAM or ECMWF NWP models. Thus able to describe releases from any location in the domains

Evaluation of DERMA DERMA took part in the real-time evaluation of long-range dispersion models based on measurement data of the European Tracer Experiment (ETEX). The model evaluation involved 28 models from Europe, USA, Canada and Japan. DERMA was ranked in the group of models with “excellent performance”.

MODELS The screening models The ISIREMM system has a number of embedded and fully interactive screening level regulatory models, primarily based on USEPA Gaussian guideline models such as ISC-3/ AERMOD, and PBM, a dynamic photochemical box model, as well as a dynamic multi-layer Eulerian code using the diagnostic wind model DWM as a pre-processor. These simple but efficient models are coupled to both the emission inventories, meteorological data bases, and monitoring data, and can be run interactively and with a fully graphical use interface with embedded GIS functionality in both short-term (episode) mode or as long-term models to generate seasonal or annual average results. The results of the long-term model, in the form of a source-receptor matrix, are the main input to the optimisation (emission control) module.
The baseline air quality simulation models The air pollution model system used in ISIREMM was developed by Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. The model system takes into account interactions between the various scales influencing the pollution patterns in the airshed considered and comprises of the models MEMO and MUSE. MEMO is a prognostic mesoscale model, which allows describing the air motion over complex terrain. Within MEMO, the conservation equations for mass, momentum, and scalar quantities as potential temperature, turbulent kinetic energy and specific humidity are solved in terrain-influenced co-ordinates. MUSE is a multilayer dispersion model for reactive species in the local-to- regional scale. The atmospheric boundary layer is divided into individual layers the thickness of which is allowed to vary in the course of the day. This variation reflects adequately the dynamics of the atmospheric boundary layer. The upper layer serves as a reservoir layer located just above the boundary layer. A shallow layer adjacent to the ground is used for simulating dry deposition (with the resistance model concept) and other sub grid phenomena. Thanks to the modular structure of MUSE, chemical transformations can be treated using any suitable chemical reaction mechanism.
