A New Transport Index for Predicting Episodes of Extreme Air Pollution

APPETISE: Air Pollution Episodes;

Long-range transport modeling of air pollution episodes.

The air quality network in the Netherlands is based on a regular grid with an interstation distance of 30 to 40 km. In or close to source areas, a higher station density is realized. Atmospheric transport models form an intrinsic part of the air quality monitoring system. The models are constructed in such a way that only routinely available meteorological input data are needed. The models are ...

meteorological conditions of acute air pollution episodes for tehran

in this paper meteorological conditions of some acute air pollution periods for the city of tehran have been considered. the data used were obtained from the air quality control company (aqcc) of municipality and from synoptic station of the institute of geophysics. initially some statistical methods were used to find the episodes for acute air pollution episodes, and then their meteorological ...

A comparative study for air pollution tolerance index of some terrestrial plant species

Although water and land pollution are very dangerous, air pollution has its own peculiarities due to its transboundary dispersion of pollutants over the entire world. In any well planned urban set up, industrial pollution takes a back seat and vehicular emissions take precedence as the major cause of urban air pollution. In the present study, Air pollution tolerance index was calculated for var...

Evaluation of high-resolution LM for urban air pollution episodes

Introduction Conclusions References Tables Figures Back Close Abstract Introduction Conclusions References Tables Figures Back Close Abstract The operational numerical weather prediction model Lokalmodell LM with 7 km horizontal resolution was evaluated for simulations of the meteorological conditions during observed urban air pollution episodes. The resolution was increased to experimental 2.8...
