IRAP-h View: Identifying COPCs
Previous Modeling Tips have looked at how to select pollutants in air quality models (AERMOD, CALPUFF). This month, we look at how to handle contaminants for a human health risk assessment project.

CALPUFF is an air dispersion model that advects ‘puffs’ of material emitted from modeled sources, simulating dispersion and transformation processes along the way. These puffs can be displayed graphically using debug information written to the main CALPUFF output file (CALPUFF.LST). With CALPUFF View, modelers can visualize puffs as animations in Google Earth.
