The Dispersion of Air Pollution and its Penetration into the Local Environment (DAPPLE) project uses field measurements, modeling, and simulations to understand air pollution dispersion in urban street canyons. This research aims to improve knowledge of air flow, traffic, and pollutant interactions in cities.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Urban Meteorology
  • Atmospheric Chemistry

Background:

  • Urban environments present complex air pollution dispersion challenges.
  • Street canyon intersections are critical areas influencing pollutant spread.
  • Understanding these processes is vital for public health and urban planning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce the Dispersion of Air Pollution and its Penetration into the Local Environment (DAPPLE) project.
  • To detail the study design and data collection methodologies.
  • To present preliminary findings and future directions for urban air pollution research.

Main Methods:

  • Multidisciplinary approach combining field measurements, wind tunnel modeling, and computer simulations.
  • Focus on physical processes governing air flow, traffic, and pollutant dispersion at street canyon intersections.
