Davies, M. J. E., Leavitt, E. D., Rudolph, R. C., McKenna, R. R., Davison, D. S.
A climatological air quality dispersion was developed which provides more powerful analyses capabiIities than are avaiIable in traditional CDM-type models. The model incorporates a time series approach to satisfy identified user needs. The three components of the model are: the time series file...

This analysis of AOSERP sigma data is an attempt to synthesize the available plume dispersion data from the AOSERP study region to derive a useful procedure for predicting the plume sigma values. The report includes a critical review of many of the more widely known sigma specification schemes...

Minisonde data collected in the Athabasca Oil Sands area from 1975 to 1979 were analysed to determine regional values of roughness length (Zo). A rigorous selection re reduced the working data set to a small fraction of the original size. A least squares technique was used to determine from...

During March 1976, a plume survey field program was conducted to determine the diffusion coefficients and turbulence parameters associated with the GCOS effluent plume. Airborne measurements were conducted under various meteorological conditions ranging from stable inversions to neutral stability...

During June 1977, a plume survey field program was conducted about the Great Canadian Oil Sands (GCOS) site to determine the plume geometry and associated turbulent parameters. Airborne measurements were conducted by INTERA's research aircraft under various meteorological conditions co-ordinated...

Air quality models have long been recognized as a valuable tool for the proper management of the air resources of a region. In view of the high costs involved in adapting and operating air quality models, management of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program (AOSERP) considered it...
