ATM; atmospheric transport and diffusion model. [IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV (96%) and BAL (4%)]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6432070
ATM can be used to estimate the transport of a pollutant from an emitting source to some receptor point. It is based on a Gaussian plume model and is capable of calculating wet and dry deposition and air concentration of non-radioactive pollutants at various receptor points located within 50 kilometers of a source or sources. The model can treat point, area, and line sources, including wind blown sources. The use of either the Pasquill-Gifford or the Briggs-Smith dispersion parameters can be specified.IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV (96%) and BAL (4%); OS/360,370; 210K bytes of storage are used with a unit for input and output printer and punch units.
