Based in the Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and with an office in Rueil-Malmaison,France, this firm's services include health, safety and environmental (HSE)training courses either online or onsite. Courses are available in air dispersion modeling, HAZOP's, quantitative risk assessment, and environmental management.
Describes the dispersion modeling research programs of the Environmental Software and Modeling Group in the Computer Science School at the Polytechnical University in Madrid, Spain. Of interest is the IMW program which is a Visual Basic model based on the U.S. EPA's ISCT3 model that was developed by this group.
The mechanical engineering department of the University of California at Riverside (UCR) has an air quality modeling group performing research in the development and application of small-scale dispersion models, as well as the development of simplified and comprehensive photochemical models.
The Computer-Assisted Protective Action Recommendation System (CAPARS) is an integrated model for predicting the path and impacts of an atmospheric release of hazardous materials. It is used by a Regional Atmospheric Response Center (RARC) in Denver, Colorado, funded by the U.S. Dept. of Energy, to tell their staff where the plume will go, when it will arrive, how serious the impacts may be, and what protective actions to take.
The Air Quality Management (AQM) Resource Centre is maintained at the University of the West of England in Bristol, England. It provides much useful information, including brief descriptions of many British and USA air dispersion models.
The U.S. EPA's SCRAM website public discussion forum (moderated) for all aspects of the EPA's various air pollution dispersion models.
A list of air quality and air pollution dispersion models with descriptions, details and contacts for obtaining further information. Most of the listed models were developed in Germany, and the StadtKlima Association is headquartered at the University of Freiburg in Germany.
The team is part of the Technology & Safety Assessment (TSA-4) Division of the LANL. The air quality team works with meteorological, air chemistry, plume dispersion, computational fluid dynamics, and emissions models. The site includes model descriptions as well as the names, email addresses and functions of all the key personnel.
Local Air Quality Management (LAQM) guidance document published by the United Kingdom's Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. Annex 3 contains guidance on dispersion modeling.
Atmospheric Dispersion of Chemicals is an e-mail discussion list where people working in the field of atmospheric dispersion modeling can exchange experiences.
