Meteorological and Gravitational-Settling Estimates for USAF Aerial Spray Operations.

Abstract

Accurate forecasts of the drift of pesticides sprayed from aircraft are important to prevent accidental overspray and damage to other wildlife. This report presents estimates of centerline ground-level concentrations of pesticides sprayed from an aircraft for specific locations based upon calculations made by a computer line-source model developed at USAFETAC.
