Given three pollution sources with emission rates of 100, 200, and 150 grams per second at various distances, calculate the combined concentration at a receptor point using the Gaussian model.
💡 Hint: Remember to adjust distances appropriately for each source.
A community plans to site a new industrial facility. Based on the surrounding area’s wind patterns and existing buildings, determine optimal stack height to ensure safe dispersion.
💡 Hint: Consider how wind behavior changes around large objects.
