Atmospheric Dispersion Modelling in Support of Civil Emergency Operations

Abstract

Atmospheric dispersion of chemical and biological agents is a complex process. This presentation looks at some of the variables impacting atmospheric dispersion modeling. Modelling and simulation approaches developed by Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) could be used to support civil emergency planning and applications.
