Graphical Options: Plot Colored Contour Lines in Lakes Software Applications
When conducting an air dispersion modeling analysis, the ability to present high-quality graphical depictions of the output is extremely important. Such images provide context to modeled results, and they provide a valuable tool to modelers in understanding and explaining the model’s calculations.

AERMOD View - New ALPHA Options in AERMOD 22112
With the latest release of the AERMOD model dated 22112, the U.S. EPA has continued to expand the formulated capabilities of the model. Most of these updates have been added as ALPHA non-default options, a concept we covered in a previous modeling tip. AERMOD 22112 contains 6 new ALPHA options which are described below:

AERMOD View - Using Flagpole Receptors
Air dispersion models are only capable of calculating concentration at specific locations. These locations are called receptors. In the U.S. EPA’s AERMOD air dispersion model, concentration calculations at each receptor are done at the ground level as opposed to some height above ground. For this reason, output from the AERMOD model is often referred to as “Ground Level Concentrations” (GLCs).
