Atmospheric Dispersion Forum
HPA - CRCE, 28 September 2009
On Monday 28th September the ADMLC held a forum on atmospheric dispersion modelling 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 representatives of UK academia to disseminate ideas and exchange views. Particular emphasis was placed on the identification of gaps in knowledge and understanding in the field of atmospheric dispersion and where future effort should be focussed.
The following papers were presented.
