Air dispersion model-ing is widely used to estimate the concentration of groundlevel pollutants from emission sources.Dispersion models often are utilized during preparation and evaluation of air permit applications, and in other instances where air pollution control strategies must be evaluated or improved.One commonly used model is SCREEN3, which offers a simple, easy-to-use method of obtaining pollutant concentration estimates.
About This ArticleThis article is the second in a two-part series on air dispersion modeling.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
