Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the concentration of a pollutant at a distance of 500m from a source with an emission factor of 200 kg/hour and dispersion coefficients of σy = 10m and σz = 5m.

💡 Hint: Use the Gaussian formula to plug in values for q, σy, and σz.

Question 2

Discuss how you would approach modeling the dispersion of pollutants in a stable atmosphere as opposed to an unstable one.

💡 Hint: Focus on how atmosphere stability impacts mixing and dispersion.
