AERMOD View - Running AERMOD & AERMOD MPI on a Second Computer
Did you know AERMOD View gives you access to execute multiple AERMOD runs? Several utility programs are included with AERMOD View and one of these – Batcher – allows modelers to set up a queue of model runs. Batcher can be executed from any computer where AERMOD View is installed even if the full application is not licensed.

AERMOD View - Processing Low Wind Speeds in AERMET
In previous modeling tips, we’ve looked at the AERMINUTE utility and expansion of its capabilities. AERMINUTE reads raw 1-minute and 5-minute wind data logged at US-based automated weather stations (called ASOS) and calculates hourly-averaged wind speeds and directions for processing in AERMET.

CALPUFF View - Working with External Source Files
When an air dispersion modeling project requires emission variations that do not follow a repeating schedule, it can be a challenge to input the data to the model. Both AERMOD and CALPUFF come equipped with variable emissions options, but the options for temporally-varying emissions are fixed to repeating schedules (e.g., same hours every day or season, whole months, etc.).
