Pollutant dispersion processes over complex terrain are much more complicated than over
flat areas, as they are affected by atmospheric interactions with the orography at different …

This paper reviews some of the broader questions concerning the mechanics of jets and
plumes moving in static and moving fluids, with and without stratification; some new …

Marine cloud brightening (MCB) is a potential intervention to mitigate the effects of climate
change by increasing the reflectance of low-level maritime clouds, including those over the …

In this paper, the MicroSpray 3-D Lagrangian particle dispersion model is presented and
reviewed, and several validation studies are shown. Starting from its core, based on a 3-D …

A Lagrangian stochastic model (MicroSpray), able to simulate the airborne dispersion in
complex terrain and in presence of obstacles, was modified to simulate the dispersion of …

The process of dispersion of air pollutants, in a broad sense, can be considered as the net
outcome of various mechanisms involved in the transport of air pollutants from the source to …

Correct prediction of the initial rise of a plume due to momentum and buoyancy effects is an
important factor in dispersion modelling. A new plume rise scheme, based upon …

An analytical technique to solve the Eulerian advection–diffusion equation for nonstationary
conditions and passive contaminant within the Planetary Boundary Layer is analysed in this …

A comparison between a puff atmospheric dispersion model (hereafter: PuM) and a
Lagrangian particle model (hereafter: LPM) was conducted for a real case of emissions from …

This study focuses on the influence of emission conditions—velocity and temperature—on
the dynamics of a buoyant gas release in the atmosphere. The investigations are performed …
