Supports the following Option Areas:

  • MASMA - Marine and Atmospheric System Modeling and Analysis
  • Abstract:

    This course focuses on computer applications of air dispersion models. Students will be expected to exercise the Gaussian plume models developed by EPA. Also, reactive-dispersion modeling will be practiced, that is, models in which primary pollutants react with themselves, or with atmospheric species to produce secondary pollutants. Examples are acid deposition, photo-oxidant and aerosol models. In addition, spreadsheet calculations will be used for some analyses.
