Links FAQs History and objectives Published studies Publicity leaflet Modelling guidelines		Introduction ADMLC has been investigating and reporting on atmospheric dispersion modelling methods for over 25 years. This website introduces its work and provides access to its publications. Membership of ADMLC is wide ranging and includes representatives from UK government organisations, private industry and consultancies (see ABOUT US).

		Recent Publications The Atmospheric Dispersion Modelling Liaison Committee have recently published ADMLC-R6 (June 2011) which includes annexes: Reviewing Issues Associated with Modelling Atmospheric Dispersion in Changing Meteorological Conditions (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) Source Term Estimation and Event Reconstruction: A Survey
		Current work ADMLC is currently funding: a review of atmospheric dispersion and deposition in fog or ‘haar’ events and the impact on human health a review of indoor concentrations from external sources a review of urban dispersion modelling methods Note that 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.

		Atmospheric Dispersion Forum: Source Term Estimation and Event Reconstruction HPA - CRCE, 5 May 2011 On Thursday 5th May the ADMLC held a forum on Source Term Estimation and Event Reconstruction at the Centre for Radiation, Chemical and Environmental Hazards, Chilton, Oxfordshire. The objective of the day was to bring together members of the Committee (who represent both industrial and regulatory organisations) and the dispersion modelling community to disseminate ideas and exchange views on the topic of inverse modelling. Particular emphasis was placed on the practical application of inverse modelling techniques. For details of the presentations made at the forum go to the 'events' page.
