Atmospheric
Dispersion with Risk and Probability Estimates in Extreme Weather

This
paper compares the predicted hazard zones as function of wind speed
following two different accidental release scenarios. One of the models
uses a heavy gas dispersion algorithm, wile the other employs a Gaussian
model. At high wind speeds, both models give extrapolated predictions.
Limitations and errors will be pointed out. Further, a quantifiable
measure of risk is given and compared to the probability of observing a
specific concentration at a given spatial location. |
