Air pollution modelling for the greater Cape Town region
… modelling for the Cape Town metropolitan area has been undertaken. This thesis deals with air-pollution aspects in relation to dispersion modelling, as well as with the input requirements and application of a dispersion model in the Greater Cape Town region. An EPA approved Gaussian plume …

Technology and policy options for reducing industrial air pollutants in the Mexico City Metropolitan Area
… sector in the Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MCMA). Environmental standards for most of the criteria pollutants have frequently been violated in the MCMA. Severe air pollution in the MCMA, and the roles of point and area sources, particularly industrial sector, are the prime motivating …

Smoke off the water : determination of mass emission rates from off-gassing surfaces
… components and the emission rate of the entire area of interest. The test methodology evolved out of literature review and experiences of two case studies which are discussed within this thesis.

Quantifying Methane Emissions from the Greater Toronto Area
… 30% of2005 levels by 2030. The Greater Toronto Area (GTA, pop. 6.4 million) is the most populous city in Canada, thus accurately quantifying GHG emissions from the GTA is an important step towards meeting Ontario’s commitments. In order to quantify GHG emissions and emission trends in an urban …

Verification Of FAA's Emissions And Dispersion Modeling System (EDMS)
… emissions come from a variety of point, line and area sources, making emissions modeling for airports very complex and more involved. Accurate air quality models, specific to airport needs, are required to properly analyze this complex array of air pollution sources created by airports. Accurate …

New Opportunities in Crowd-Sourced Monitoring and Non-government Data Mining for Developing Urban Air Quality Models in the US
… allow for leveraging open data from different sources to improve air pollution exposure assessment. My dissertation investigates how new data sources of air quality (e.g., community-based monitoring, low-cost sensor platform) and model predictor variables (e.g., non-government open data) based …

Flow visualisation and fundamental aspects of two-dimensional turbulent plumes
… on the turbulent plumes which develop above sources which directly supply buoyancy, but zero momentum, to the fluid. Sources of this type are particularly relevant to modelling the convective flows driven by underfloor heating in rooms. Indeed this form of heating underpinned the interest of …
