Atmospheric sulfur and nitrogen oxides: Eastern north American source-receptor relationships

Book ·
OSTI ID:285014
This book is a compilation of empirical and atmospheric modeling analyses around the theme of characterizing and understanding, source-receptor relationships, primarily sulfur, relative to acidic deposition and visibility degradation. Major topics include the following: background discussion of meteorological factors that affect air pollution concentrations; characterization of regional air concentrations and deposition for eastern North America, including a good compilation of data sets; cases studies and classification of meterological conditions and associated air concentration behavior followed by a statistical analysis perspective; source-receptor relationships as derived from models; and an assessment of the last 20 years. The book provides a compendium of the analyses of the sulfate Regional Experiment (SURE) data of the later 1970`s.
