Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Calculate the concentration of a gas emitted from a factory at ground level after moving 50 meters up in a stable atmosphere if the initial concentration was 100 ppm and the environmental lapse rate was -0.006 °C/m.
💡 Hint: Consider how stability modifies concentrations as pollutants rise.
A plume from a factory is observed to rise and spread at different angles. How would you analyze the shape and dispersion patterns based on atmospheric conditions?
💡 Hint: Think about how different atmospheric conditions affect air parcel behavior and dispersion shapes.
