Calculations of annual averaged sulphur dioxide concentrations at ground level in the AOSERP study area

The Climatological Dispersion Model and the input data required for calculation of annual averaged values of sulphur dioxide concentrations at ground level are described. The most important meteorological input to the model is the long-term joint frequency distribution of winds in the vicinity of th...
