3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the environmental lapse rate?
Think about temperature changes with altitude.
What happens during stable atmospheric conditions?
This can lead to high concentration levels.
What is the typical value of the dry adiabatic lapse rate?
Recall the standard value for dry air.
True or False: In neutral atmospheric conditions, pollutants will rise indefinitely.
Consider what neutral conditions imply for air movement.
If the environmental lapse rate at a certain location is measured multiple times during the day and averages 7°C/km, how would this influence afternoon pollutants dispersal compared to morning when it's averaging 5°C/km?
Consider the implications of air temperature change over time.
Given that pollutants are most concentrated near the ground level during stable conditions, propose an air quality management strategy to address this issue.
Think about how stability affects air quality and how management actions can mitigate effects.
