A Study of Low Level Air Trajectories at Oak Ridge , Tenn . *
نویسنده
چکیده
Approximately 2,000 zero-lift, double-theodolite pilot balloon observations made at Oak Ridge, Tenn., are analyzed in order to study low level air trajectories over hilly terrain. Paths of air parcels are found to fall into characteristic groups, depending on wind speed and stability conditions. Eddy patterns for these groups are determined, and these are found to resemble similar patterns determined for different types of terrain. The properties of low level air flow, particularly of vertical velocity patterns, are displayed in various ways. Slope winds due to thermal-dynamical effects appear to contribute more to these patterns than does a purely mechanical lifting effect.

Between 1944 and 1956, radioactive 131I was released into the atmosphere from operations at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, TN. The releases occurred from stacks and from building vents and openings in three different chemical forms: elemental, organic, and particulate. During their transport in the atmosphere, different forms of iodine react differently with other atmospheric c...
