Abstract
This report is the seventh in
a series giving practical guidance to estimate the dispersion of radionuclides
released to the atmosphere. It represents the conclusions of a Working
Group established to review recent developments in atmospheric dispersion
modelling and to propose models for use within the UK. This report examines
the uncertainty inherent in predictions of atmospheric dispersion made
with models recommended by the Group. It identifies a number of sources
of uncertainty, such as the random nature of atmospheric dispersion, the
idealisations inherent in modelling and the choice of values for the many
parameters involved. The report puts these uncertainties in context and
comments on the reliability of models for use in practical situations.
