Summary:Title screen
The important mechanism transporting substances in the surface layer of the atmosphere is turbulent diffusion. The intensity of turbulent transport is characterized by the turbulent diffusion coefficient. Calculation is a difficult task without a unique characterization. Distinguished turbulent models of atmospheric flow have been developed for particular atmospheric states and simple landscapes. These restrictions complicate the use of such models when assessing the distribution of industrial emissions in the atmosphere. The aims of the present work are to (i) develop a semi-empirical method for estimating the turbulent diffusion coefficient of the emissions of large industries, and (ii) study the turbulence intensity dependence of fundamental factors: the wind speed and landscape. The method relies on the distribution function of the concentration of contaminants measured along any direction of the altitude of a point source. Epiphytic mosses (Pylaisia polyantha, Sanionia uncinata ) were used with an exposure time of 3 years. The chemical contents of the mosses were determined by neutron activation analysis and atomic emissive spectrometry.
