Community Multiscale Air Quality Model US EPA Website
CMAQ is an active open-source development project of the U.S. EPA Computational Exposure Division that consists of a suite of programs for conducting air quality model simulations. CMAQ is supported by the CMAS Center (http:https://www.cmascenter.org).
CMAQ combines current knowledge in atmospheric science and air quality modeling with multi-processor computing techniques in an open-source framework to deliver fast, technically sound estimates of ozone, particulates, toxics, and acid deposition.
The CMAQ Git repository is organized with each official public release stored as a branch on the public GitHub USEPA CMAQ repository. To clone code from the CMAQ Git repository, specify the branch (i.e. version number) and issue the following command from within a working directory on your server. For example, to get the 5.2 version to a local repository that you would name CMAQ_REPO:
git clone -b 5.2 https://github.com/USEPA/CMAQ.git CMAQ_REPO
The followoing release versions of CMAQ are currently available on GitHub. DOI values from Zenodo can be used when referencing a specific version.
