Current work

• ADMLC is currently funding a review of 'steady-state' modelling approaches (i.e. when it is assumed that the meteorological conditions do not change during the release or during the plume travel time) to determine when they are appropriate and when alternative methods should be used.

• ADMLC is also currently funding a review of atmospheric dispersion and deposition in fog or ‘haar’ events and the impact on human health.

• In addition, the Committee held a forum at the end of September 2009 at which members and UK academics were able to discuss current work areas and future priorities in the field of atmospheric dispersion. Presentations from this day are published under the EVENTS page of this website.
  

New work

• The organisations represented on the Committee pay an annual subscription which is used to fund areas of work agreed by the Committee, and to support in part its secretariat, provided by Health Protection Agency. Details of the projects the Committee would like to fund are published under the WORK page of this website.

• The Committee is also interested in suggestions for new work from non ADMLC members who can contact ADMLC using the email address admlc@hpa.org.uk
