Description:
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Complex Terrain Model Development program is designed as a series of progressively advanced model development efforts accompanied by requisite field studies to provide data for model evaluation. Plume impingement studies have been performed during 1980 at Cinder Cone Butte near Boise, Idaho, and during 1982 at Hogback Ridge near Farmington, New Mexico. Experimental protocol consisted of terrain-surface measurements of dual-tracer plumes emitted from mobile cranes during stable atmospheric conditions.
