Question 1

What is the assumption of 'steady state' in Gaussian models?

  • A point where concentration varies wildly
  • Concentration remains constant over time
  • Concentration increases exponentially

💡 Hint: Focus on what it means for a state to be 'steady'.

Question 2

True or False: Boundary conditions are optional in a Gaussian dispersion model.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how edges dictate behavior in models.
