Abstract:

The process of the formation of a plume of NO₂ emitted into the atmosphere by a point source is considered with the use of a new method for reconstructing NO₂ distribution fields in the troposphere from GSA Resource-P satellite data and mathematical simulation. The functional form of the model is ascertained, which agrees in complexity with the amount of available experimental information. The values of the model parameters are found. The emission power is calculated. The reliability of the simulation results is estimated from the comparison of the calculations with the experimental data on the distribution of the altitude-integral amount of NO₂ in air depending on the horizontal coordinates.

Keywords:

mathematical simulation, atmospheric diffusion of impurities, transport and chemical transformation of active anthropogenic impurities, pollutant plume, point source, emission power estimation
