Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Given a scenario of urban pollution during summer, where the environmental lapse rate is observed at -4 °C/km, analyze and predict the dispersion shape. Discuss the factors influencing your prediction.
💡 Hint: Focus on the relationships between the lapse rates.
Question 2
Calculate the mixing height when the environmental lapse rate is reported as -6 °C/km and the adiabatic lapse rate is -9.8 °C/km. Describe the implications for pollution transport.
💡 Hint: Analyze how the difference in lapse rates affects the mixing height.
