Abstract The broad objective was to determine the space and time variability of air quality, on time scales two hours or longer and on a minimum space scale of 5000 feet square in urban, suburban and rural locations and to relate this to the use of monitoring and models in tactical and strategic air quality operations. The state of Connecticut was used for the study. An attempt is made to determine how great a bias might be introduced by improper sampling procedures. Estimates of SO2 concentration were made by two models for four selected areas of the state. Frequency distributions were prepared and the observed data were log-normal. Spatial distributions of air quality model estimates were examined in three regions, one of which was actually a double region in the eastern portion of the state for both models. Modeling for both short and long-term concentration estimates can be performed but it is very clear that a good source inventory is required. This is especially important for short-term models.
