The Indic-Airviro System The Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI) developed a dispersion modeling system with modules for: receiving input data from monitoring stations; an emission data base; and dispersion modeling. The dispersion module has a Gaussian model for small-scale applications, a grid model for large-scale regional applications, a street canyon model for emission sources surrounded by buildings, and a dense gas module. ImmProg2000 Dispersion Models A set of dispersion models developed by AirInfo Gmbh, Switzerland to meet the recommendations of the Swiss and German meteorological services. All of the models are Gaussian and they include: a point-source model; a line-source model for vehicles on roads in open terrain and in city street canyons; and an odor dispersion model. The SLAB model This software models the dispersion of dense gas releases from an evaporating pool, a horizontal jet, a vertical jet, or an instantaneous volume source. The dispersion is calculated from the conservation equations of mass, momentum, energy, and species. The conservation equations are spatially averaged to treat the cloud as either a continuous plume, a transient puff, or a combination of the two depending on the release duration. SLAB was developed by the USA's Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The QuickSLAB Model Integrates the SLAB dispersion model with a mapping system of potential toxic release points, types and quantities and exposed schools, homes, hospitals and businesses. It was developed for use by National Border Technology Partnership Program (NBTPP), led by the U.S. Department Of Energy, in addressing environmental and health concerns along the U.S.A and Mexico border. Hazard Prediction and Assessment Capability (HPAC) HPAC models the release to and transport of materials in the atmosphere and its impact on civilian and military populations. Contains weather interface, supporting infrastructure and probabilistic solutions (i.e., "How good is the prediction"). Licensing from the U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency is available for non-commercial usage. ATM-PRO A distributor of air dispersion modeling and other environmental software located in Nivelles,Belgium. PROKAS An emission factors model (as per the German Emission Factors Handbook) coupled with a Gaussian air dispersion model, PROKAS is used to calculate air pollutant concentrations caused by automotive traffic on a network of streets. Documentation is available from Lohmeyer Consulting Engineers of Karlsruhe, Germany. The AUSPLUME Model Describes the AUSPLUME model developed in about 1986 by the Environmental Protection Authority of Victoria, Australia. The AUSPLUME model is an adaptation of the U.S. EPA's ISCST model (Industrial Source Complex Short Term model). Copies of the model can be purchased from the Victorian Environmental Protection Authority. The DEGADIS model Dr. Tom Spicer and Dr. Jerry Havens of the University of Arkansas developed this model (for the U.S. Coast Guard and the Gas Research Institute) primarily for simulating the dispersion of denser-than-air flammable gases. The U.S. EPA later extended DEGADIS for dispersion modeling of vertical jets. Implementation of DEGADIS on personal computers was sponsored by the Gas Research Institute and the American Petroleum Institute. Air Dispersion Modeling, Inc. A firm in Oakton, Virginia selling a line of air pollution dispersion modeling software that includes: ISC View, RMP View, SCREEN View, SLAB View and SLAB View 3D ... all of which are U.S. EPA models adapted for use with Windows by Lakes Environmental.
