through this article, the distribution of air pollutants in tehran have been simulated based on wind patterns with and without the presence of synoptic by tapm (a meso-scale model). the simulation covers three horizontal resolution domains 30, 15 and 5 kilometers. the pollutants chosen for this are co and pm10 and wind data is 10 meter height level. the result has shown that the model simulated...

introduction temperature effects on human activities and natural processes are undeniable. temperature increase, in particular, in the form of heat waves affects all facets of life including architecture, welfare, transport, agriculture and industry. when the intensity and frequency of the waves are high, they can produce major problems. in recent years, the number and intensity of these heat w...

Coupled meteorological and Lagrangian particle models are used to examine horizontal dispersion over one to two diurnal cycles. Seven numerical experiments were run in which different portions of the atmospheric energy spectrum were included or excluded in the simulation of releases of a non-buoyant pollutant from an elevated point source. The results of the experiments indicate that vertical s...

Scarcity in energy sector is a major problem, which can hamper the growing development of a country. Bangladesh is one of the electricity-deprived countries; however, the energy demand of Bangladesh is increasing day by day. Due to the shortage of natural resources and environmental issues, many nations are now moving towards renewable energy. Among various form of renewable energy, wind energy...

Spaceborne SAR images acquired over the ocean in conjunction with weather radar images are well suited to study atmospheric fronts in coastal areas. In this paper we confine ourselves to study quasi-stationary atmospheric fronts off the east coast of Taiwan which are located typically 3070 km offshore. These quasistationary atmospheric fronts were first detected on ERS SAR images [5]. In [5] we...

It has recently been shown that using battery storage systems (BSSs) to provide reactive power provision in a medium-voltage (MV) active distribution network (ADN) with embedded wind stations (WSs) can lead to a huge amount of reverse power to an upstream transmission network (TN). However, unity power factors (PFs) of WSs were assumed in those studies to analyze the potential of BSSs. Therefor...

We analyzed 40 year data sets of daily average visibility (a proxy for surface aerosol concentration) and hourly precipitation at seven weather stations, including three stations located on the Taihang Mountains, during the summertime in northern China. There was no significant trend in summertime total precipitation at almost all stations. However, light rain decreased, whereas heavy rain incr...
