Meteorological and Back Trajectory Modeling for the Rocky Mountain Atmospheric Nitrogen and Sulfur Study II

Figure 8

Hysplit ensemble back trajectories generated with WRF input for 10 May 2009, at 6 : 00 pm MST. The heaviest line is the trajectory started from the core site. The lighter lines are the remaining 26 ensemble members. In panel (c), the dashed line is the height of the top of the mixed layer for core site trajectory. There is a dot after each day on all panels. Colorado is approximately 610 km across. On panel (a), the distance from the Pacific Coast on the west to the eastern edge of the map is approximately 3200 km.
