INERTIAL MECHANISM OF SETTLING OF COARSELY DISPERSED AEROSOL ON TERRESTRIAL VEGETATION

Abstract

The document presents an analysis of experimental data on the scattering of drops of liquid in the atmosphere is used as the basis for demonstrating the necessity of considering the inertial settling of aerosols on terrestrial vegetation. A method is proposed for estimating the inertial settling in a study of the atmospheric diffusion of coarsely dispersed aerosols.
