Define the steady state assumption.
What does it mean to be constant?
What is a Gaussian dispersion model?
Think about how you would visualize concentrations of pollution.
What does the steady state assumption imply about pollutant concentrations?
Think about the definition of steady state.
Is the following statement true or false? 'The Gaussian dispersion model describes how pollutants can only spread in one direction.'
Consider how pollutants behave in the environment.
A factory releases pollutants at a rate of 200 mg/s. How would you calculate the concentration in a 5 m³ volume at steady state?
What is the concentration formula using emission rates?
If wind direction changes from East to West, how would this influence a nearby pollution plume's Gaussian distribution?
Consider how wind direction affects the behavior of any moving substance.
