Abstract
The use of the variational data assimilation approach is becoming more and more popular in the attempts to improve the accuracy of the results obtained by different air pollution models. Different tests were carried out in order both to check the ability of the data assimilation procedures to improve the initial concentrations and to start building up a benchmark for testing the performance of these procedures on different modern high-speed computers.
