Analyzing Environmental Tritium Cycle for Fusion Energy and National Security
… Atmospheric modeling using HYSPLIT and a Gaussian Plume model is then conducted in order to better understand current and future global tritium sources and concentrations and their release pathways in the environment. Despite elevated tritium levels near major sources, most emissions …

Power plant carbon dioxide emission quantification with plume modeling
… originating from point sources, referred to as plumes, can be simulated using mathematical and physical models, such as a convection-diffusion plume model and a Gaussian plume model. The convection-diffusion model is based on the convection-diffusion partial differential equation describing mass …

Air pollution modelling for the greater Cape Town region
… in the Greater Cape Town region. An EPA approved Gaussian plume model, the Industrial Source Complex Short Term 2 (ISCST2), was chosen for the pollution simulation. The model requires one point meteorological measurements and can accommodate multiple point, line and area sources. Meteorological …

Bayesian and geostatistical analysis of the effect of air pollution on asthma hospitalisation in Perth
… concentration in Perth was estimated with the Gaussian Plume Model (GPM) and the lognormal kriging. The risk of asthma hospitalisation was calculated using Bayesian Hierarchical Model (BHM). The outputs from the air pollution model and asthma risk model were incorporated in a Generalised Linear …

Development and testing of a methodology for attributing sources of airborne pollutants to their receptors
… in the package include a modified hybrid plume dispersion model and a ground level release dispersion model that incorporate recent advances in the understanding of planetary boundary layer and atmospheric dispersion. They also include the conventional Gaussian plume dispersion model that …

Monitoring and Predicting the Long Distance Transport of Fusarium graminearum, Causal Agent of Fusarium Head Blight in Wheat and Barley
… were compared to results predicted by a Gaussian dispersal-based spore transport model. In 2011 and 2012, dispersal kernel shape coefficients were similar for both results observed in the field and predicted by the model, with both being dictated by a power law function, indicating that …

Stochastic modelling of contaminant transport in porous media
… linear drift velocities. First, transmission of gaussian solute plumes through step changes in the drift velocity is shown to produce non-diffusive dispersion comparable to that found for linearly changing velocities. Approximations to the step results are developed that are simple enough to be …
