Method for determining atmospheric dispersion conditions from synoptic observations
Abstract
Measures taken in the area of maintenance of pure air frequently require knowledge of the climatological distribution of atmospheric dispersion conditions in a certain locality. A climatological distribution of the dispersion conditions would be relatively easily obtained if long-term measurements of turbulence were available for the locality at which the distribution is needed. Such turbulence measurements, however, have been made at only a few places and then only as spot checks. For this reason, a correlation between easily obtainable meteorological data and atmospheric dispersion conditions is of considerable practical importance. The most useful would be one which permits making conclusions as to atmospheric dispersion conditions from the data of a synoptic observation. The correlation scheme should also be objectively programmable and hence progammable for data processing installations. Such a correlation scheme is also applicable to the calculation of actual concentration fields.
