CALPUFF View - Changing the Default Text Editor
Most air dispersion models use simple text files for reading inputs and writing output data. To display these files, Lakes Environmental’s applications use the system’s default text editor. Users may prefer to use a different text editor to utilize different functionality or format data differently. To take advantage of these additional features, you can change the default text editor called by our software.

AERMOD View - Data Substitutions in AERMET
When conducting an air dispersion modeling analysis, it is very important that the meteorological data quality is as high as possible. AERMET – the meteorological pre-processor for the AERMOD dispersion modeling system – contains internal options which can boost data quality by filling short gaps of missing cloud cover and temperature data.

AERMOD View - Working with Different Model Versions in AERMET View
With each successive update to the AERMOD modeling system published by the U.S. EPA to the Support Center for Regulatory Atmospheric Modeling (SCRAM) website, Lakes Software updates our AERMOD View and AERMET View applications to support the new models. In previous Modeling Tips, we’ve discussed how to choose earlier versions of the AERMOD executable in AERMOD View, but it is also possible to revert to earlier versions of AERMET when using AERMET View.
