Abstract:

A technique is proposed for reconstructing the field of air pollution averaged vertically over the height of the atmospheric planetary boundary layer, horizontally over the area of a grid cell, and temporally. The technique is based on the numerical solution of the pollutant transfer equation with the help of the matrix theory and employs the data on emissions of pollutants as well as the climatic data on wind velocity and precipitation. The technique has been implemented at the m×n grid nodes (m, n = 12), and the results of reconstructing the sulphurous gas concentration in January and July over Eastern States of the U.S.A and adjoining area of the Atlantic Ocean have been presented.
