DUSTRAN 1.0 User's Guide: A GIS-Based Atmospheric Dust Dispersion Modeling System

Abstract

The U.S. Department of Energy s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory just completed a multi-year project to develop a fully tested and documented atmospheric dispersion modeling system (DUST TRANsport or DUSTRAN) to assist the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) in addressing particulate air quality issues at military training and testing ranges. The project was primarily funded by DoD s Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program with additional funding from the U.S. Forest Service and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to address their issues related to the off-target drift of aerially applied pesticides.
