EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) Complex Terrain Model Development: third milestone report 1983. Interim report Jun 82-Jun 83

摘要: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is sponsoring the Complex Terrain Model Development program, a multi-year integrated program to develop and validate practical plume dispersion models of known reliability accuracy for simulating one-hour-average ground-level concentrations downwind elevated sources during stable atmospheric conditions in complex terrain. first major component was field study conducted fall 1980 at Cinder Cone Butte, roughly axisymmetric, isolated 100-meter-tall hill located broad Snake River Basin near Boise, Idaho. second performed 1982 Hogback Ridge, an 85-meter-tall two-dimensional ridge west Farmington, New Mexico. This report documents work subsequent Second Milestone Report combine two preliminary terrain developed from Butte data base into Dispersion (CTDM), contrast performance CTDM with three existing using measurement both Ridge experiments. A description also included.
