Air Dispersion Modeling

Air Dispersion Modeling

Air dispersion modeling uses information about sources and meteorological conditions to calculate how a pollutant moves through the atmosphere and what the pollutant concentration is at specific points.

AERMOD View

AERMOD View

Gaussian Plume Air Dispersion Model
Our most commonly used air dispersion model. Applicable to a wide range of buoyant or neutrally buoyant emissions up to a range of 50km. Also suitable for complex terrain and urban dispersion.

CALPUFF View

Puff Air Dispersion Model
A non-steady state Gaussian puff model, suitable for long range transport, atmospheric chemistry, visibility and scenarios with complex wind fields, such as coastal and complex terrain areas.
AERSCREEN View

AERSCREEN View

Screening Model for AERMOD
AERSCREEN is a screening-level air quality model based on the US EPA AERMOD model which estimates worst-case ground level concentrations for a single source.

CALRoads View

Traffic Air Dispersion Model
A traffic dispersion model specifically designed for modeling emissions from vehicles. CALRoads can model timed intersections, parking lots and account for traffic patterns.

AUSTAL View

Lagrangian Particle Tracking Air Dispersion Model
A Lagrangian particle tracking model. Widely used in Germany, AUSTAL is capable of modeling complex wind fields and transient behavior.
