Difference between the modeled and measured ET measurements were less than 10%and20%0% on a daytime basis for HiWATER and BEAREX08 data sets, respectively.
More research is needed in order to define better "urban surface" from the remote sensing viewpoint, to examine measurement and modeling scales, and to differentiate modeled and measured fluxes.
The Pearson correlation coefficient between the estimated (modeled) and measured yearly mean levels (maximum measured levels were not available for technical reasons) was 0.43 (95 % CI −0.48 0.89) for benzene and for 0.64 (95 % CI −0.21 0.94) for PM10.
Figure 7 shows the comparison of the modeled and measured averaged RVEI, where the model again overestimates the measured metric but captures the overall trend.
The quality of the model is assessed by comparing the modeled and measured log data as shown in Fig. 17.
Owing to the limited number of air monitoring stations available, we had limited ability to validate the modeling, and our validation suggested only moderate correlation between modeled and measured ambient air levels.
Incorporating κ with these effects into the analysis of a larger data set of previous J measurements at this site (1998-2008) improved agreement between modeled and measured values in 92% of cases.
The maximum deviation to the model is also situated around 2 Mbps. Figure 10 11 Mbps modeled and measured PER Z,W.
In case of λ = 2.0, the modeled and measured values were close to each other and were within the range of measurement error.
Good agreement was obtained between the modeled and measured results.
Comparison of modeled and measured nitric oxide emissions revealed relatively significant discrepancies.
