¥Air
pollution dispersion is often studied with simple models, termed Box Models. How is a box defined for the LA basin?
¥Ventilation factor is a
simple way of relating concentrations of pollutants
to parameters that modulate the dispersion of pollutants in a local environments.
¥An
increase in either the mixing
height or the wind speed increases the effective volume in which pollutants are allowed to mix.
¥The
larger the volume, the lower the pollution concentration.

does a box model work?
