	meteorological data
		The acceptability of a meteorological database, expressed in terms of percentage recovery and duration of record, must be in the context of adequacy and suitability for modeling in accordance with the document Meteorological Monitoring Guidance for Regulatory Modeling Applications (EPA, 2000) and all applicable MEDEP-BAQ/EPA guidelines.
		On-site meteorological data is generally defined as data that is collected within close proximity to the modeled source and is truly representative of localized conditions near the stack.
		Off-site meteorological data is defined as data that is generally representative of conditions at the modeled source, although localized variations are not likely to be captured in the data.

	WebMET - The Meteorological Resource Center
		In general, for use in air quality modeling applications, meteorological data should be representative of conditions affecting the transport and dispersion of pollutants in the “area of interest” as determined by the locations of the sources and receptors being modeled.
		Representativeness for steady-state modeling applications must necessarily be assessed in concert with the steady-state assumption that meteorological conditions are constant within the space-time domain of the application; as typically applied, measurements for a single location, somewhere near the source, are assumed to apply, without change, at all points in the modeling domain.
		The meteorological processors which support these applications are designed to appropriately blend available NWS data, local site-specific data, and prognostic mesoscale data; empirical relationships are then used to diagnostically adjust the wind fields for mesoscale and local-scale effects [11], [12].
