Workbook of Atmospheric Dispersion Estimates: An Introduction to Dispersion Modeling, Second Edition

This completely updated & revised Second Edition of the popular Workbook of Atmospheric Dispersion Estimates provides an important foundation for understanding dispersion modeling as it is being practiced today. The book & accompanying diskette will help you determine the impacts of various sources of air pollution, including the effects of wind & turbulence, plume rise, & Gaussian dispersion & its limitations. Information is shown in summary graphs as well as in equations. The programs included on the diskette allow you to "get the feel" for the results you'll obtain through the input of various combinations of parameter values. The sensitivity of data to various parameters can be easily explored by changing one value & seeing the effect on the results. The book presents 37 example problems with solutions to show the estimation of atmospheric pollutant concentrations for many situations.
