Gaussian Plume Model
A computer model used to calculate air pollution concentrations.

 


Gaussian: Refers to the normal distribution; phenomena whose events are "normally" distributed are "Gaussian" distributed. This is the most common distribution encountered in physical processes.

A model used to calculate air pollution concentrations.

Gaussian model - a way of calculating concentrations of polluting chemicals from stationary industrial sources. The substance goes downwind and disperses (gets weaker) as it travels, according to Gaussian mathematics.

0-5 Gauss; also equal to 1 nanotelsa (nT).Gamma RayA type of electromagnetic radiation with a very short wavelength and high energy level. Generally, emitted during radioactive decay of a substance.

This equation assumes that the antenna pattern has a Gaussian shape and that the scattering volume is uniformly filled.

Nanotesla (nT) A unit of magnetism equal to 10-9 tesla, equivalent to a gamma (10-5 gauss).

The Industrial Source Complex - Short Term regulatory air dispersion model (ISCST3) is a Gaussian plume model and is widely used to assess pollution concentration and/or deposition flux on receptors from a wide variety of sources.
