Abstract

Bi-Gaussian mean wind direction models are frequently used to evaluate the impact of a specific source upon the yearly average levels of air-pollution in a given region. It is shown that for ground-level releases, as well as for elevated releases, the same meteorological observations give quite different model results when used in different turbulence typing schemes.
