A single reference to all aspects of contemporary air dispersion modelingThe practice of air dispersion modeling has changed dramatically in recent years, in large part due to new EPA regulations. Current with the EPA's 40 CFR Part 51, this book serves as a complete reference to both the science and contemporary practice of air dispersion modeling. Throughout the book, author Alex De Visscher guides readers through complex calculations, equation by equation, helping them understand precisely how air dispersion models work, including such popular models as the EPA's AERMOD and CALPUFF. Air Dispersion Modeling begins with a primer that enables readers to quickly grasp basic principles by developing their own air dispersion model. Next, the book offers everything readers need to work with air dispersion models and accurately interpret their results, including: Full chapter dedicated to the meteorological basis of air dispersionExamples throughout the book illustrating how theory translates into practiceExtensive discussions of Gaussian, Lagrangian, and Eulerian air dispersion modelingDetailed descriptions of the AERMOD and CALPUFF model formulationsThis book also includes access to a website with Microsoft® Excel and MATLAB® files that contain examples of air dispersion model calculations. Readers can work with these examples to perform their own calculations. With its comprehensive and up-to-date coverage, Air Dispersion Modeling is recommended for environmental engineers and meteorologists who need to perform and evaluate environmental impact assessments. The book's many examples and step-by-step instructions also make it ideal as a textbook for students in the fields of environmental engineering, meteorology, chemical engineering, and environmental sciences.Content: Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION (pages 1–13): Chapter 2 AN AIR DISPERSION MODELING PRIMER (pages 14–36): Chapter 3 AIR POLLUTANTS (pages 37–53): Chapter 4 REGULATION OF AIR QUALITY AND AIR QUALITY MODELING (pages 54–59): Chapter 5 METEOROLOGY FOR AIR DISPERSION MODELERS (pages 60–140): Chapter 6 GAUSSIAN DISPERSION MODELING (pages 141–200): Chapter 7 PLUME–ATMOSPHERE INTERACTIONS (pages 201–295): Chapter 8 GAUSSIAN MODEL APPROACHES IN URBAN OR INDUSTRIAL TERRAIN (pages 296–328): Chapter 9 STOCHASTIC MODELING APPROACHES (pages 329–362): Chapter 10 COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS AND METEOROLOGICAL MODELING (pages 363–403): Chapter 11 EULERIAN MODEL APPROACHES (pages 404–473): Chapter 12 PRACTICAL ASPECTS OF AIR DISPERSION MODELING (pages 474–479): Chapter 13 ISC3 AND SCREEN3 (pages 480–490): Chapter 14 AERMOD AND AERMET (pages 491–513): Chapter 15 CALPUFF AND CALMET (pages 514–541): Chapter 16 CMAQ (pages 542–555):
