For those of you who are interested in learning about air pollution dispersion modeling, I recommend that you read the following online articles at Wikipedia:

Atmospheric dispersion modeling
Air pollution dispersion modeling books
Air pollution dispersion terminology
Compilation of air dispersion models
Fundamentals of Stack Gas Dispersion
Roadway air dispersion modeling

For those who are complete newcomers to the dispersion modeling field, I particularly recommend either of these two books:

Turner, D.B. (1994). Workbook of atmospheric dispersion estimates: an introduction to dispersion modeling, 2nd Edition, CRC Press. ISBN 156670023X. (Availble from http://www.crcpress.com)

Beychok, M.R. (2005). Fundamentals Of Stack Gas Dispersion, 4th Edition, self-published. ISBN 0964458802. (Available from http://www.air-dispersion.com)

Click here if you would like a free copy of "Air Dispersion Modeling Terminology" emailed to you as a Microsoft Word document.
