HIGRAD: PLUME DISPERSAL in Salt Lake City (2.8 Mb avi)

3-d dispersion in downtown Salt Lake City. Six tracers are shown as they disperse with a southeasterly wind. To learn more about this project visit the Chem-Bio Transport and Fate web page.

SLC fly-through (0.7 Mb mpg)

Shows a bird's eye view of our 3-d Salt Lake City building data set. These building data sets are required by the building-scale and regional scale modeling teams. To learn more about this project visit the Chem-Bio Transport and Fate web page.

Storm water flow (0.8 Mb QT) in one of the Santa Monica Bay sub-watersheds.

The urban runoff and pipe flow was simulated using the SWMM model and rain gauge measurements. To learn more about this project visit the Urban Security Air-Water Pathways web page.

Storm water quality (0.7 Mb QT) resulting from atmospheric deposition in one of the Santa Monica Bay sub-watersheds.

    Deposition was estimated using the CIT photochemical model and the water quality was modeled using SWMM. To learn more about this project visit the Urban Security Air-Water Pathways web page.

Dispersion from a low release (0.3 Mb mpeg) and an elevated release (0.4 Mb mpeg) on the back side of a building.

Dispersion within a cluster of buildings (0.2 Mb mpeg)

    In this wind tunnel experiment the wind is coming out of the picture. Notice that the plume circulates between the two smaller buildings in a direction opposite the prevailing wind. To learn more about this work visit the Chem-Bio Transport and Fate and USEPA Fluid Modeling Facility web pages.

A HOTMAC/RAPTAD simulated plume release (0.2 Mb gif) in the El Paso/Ciudad Juarez Region.

    The movie shows neutrally-buoyant particles being transported by the mean and turbulent wind fields for 3 days of a 30 day simulation (Sept. 10-12, 1994). To learn more about this project visit the El Paso/Ciudad Juarez web page. To learn more about the meteorological and dispersion models visit the Model Descriptions web page.
