I wonder, can i use Gauss Model to predict where and how high the concentration of TSP's emission from concrete batching plant in rural area near plant?
Because in those areas, wind direction is different in every hour but there is a dominant one. Wind velocity almost stable but in a range of 0 - 4 m/s. Is it too low?
Or is there any other model to predict concentration of air pollutant in rural area? Can you give me any recommendation models to predict concentration of air pollutant (especially for Total suspended particulate) in rural area?
Your answer is a great help, thanks a lot researcher
Khotimah,
Sure, what is the domain size, and where is the target area, you are looking for?
I think the easy to do this is using NOAA online dispersion model,

I suggest you to start from meteorological data of GDAS. However, if you are looking TSPs, deposition rate will vary with particle sizes. It will just give you a rough number of spatial variation of TSP near a certain source.
