Atmospheric structure
• Troposphere. The lowest layer of the atmosphere, extending from the Earth's surface up to
the tropopause, which is at 10-15 km altitude depending on latitude and time of year;
characterized by decreasing temperature with height; rapid vertical mixing.
• Stratosphere. Extends from the tropopause to the stratopause (From ~ 45 to 55 km
altitude); temperature increases with altitude, leading to a layer in which vertical mixing is
slow.
• Mesosphere. Extends from the stratopause to the mesopause (From ~ 80 to 90 km altitude);
temperature decreases with altitude to the mesopause, which is the coldest point in the
atmosphere; rapid vertical mixing.
• Thermo sphere. The region above the mesopause; characterized by high temperatures as a
result of absorption of short-wavelength radiation by N2 and O2; rapid vertical mixing. The
ionosphere is a region of the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere where ions are
produced by photoionization.
• Exosphere. The outermost region of the atmosphere (> 500 km altitude) where gas
molecules with sufficient energy can escape from the Earth's gravitational attraction.
• Over the equator the average height of the tropopause is about 18 km; over the poles, about
8 km.
Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL)
• The troposphere can be divided into 2 parts based on turbulence or friction. The Friction is
generated by the earth's surface, but that aloft friction is negligible in comparison. At some point
in the atmosphere, there is a zone where friction goes from significant to insignificant. The lower
layer of air which is subjected to turbulent (frictional) processes is known as the planetary
boundary layer (PBL). The remaining air in the troposphere is known as the free atmosphere
(because it is free of frictional influences.

• Above the mixed layer is a stable layer which Micro layer

Surface layer
(10% of PBL)
This stable layer also restricts turbulence, preventing
frictional influences from reaching above the PBL.
• Unlike the mixed layer, the stable boundary layer does not
have a well-defined top. Instead, it slowly merges with
the residual layer that is formed between sunset and
sunrise.
Calculation of stable layer height
• The "e-folding height (He )" for the temperature curve that
❑ Neutral atmosphere: when thermal structure of the atmosphere neither resists nor enhances the
mechanical turbulence.
❑ The rate of temperature decrease with altitude is called as dry adiabatic lapse rate if heat
absorption/release by moisture is involved then it is called wet adiabatic lapse rate.
❑ When the environmental lapse rate at particular place is equal to dry adiabatic lapse rate or wet adiabatic
lapse rate then the atmosphere is called neutral.

Problem
• Given the following temperature and elevation data, determine the
stability of the atmosphere.
❑ Horizontal air will tend to bend the plume downward. While the plume is rising,
bending and moving in horizontal direction the pollutants are being diluted by
ambient air surrounding the plume.
❑ The plume rise is affected by both upward inertia of discharge gas stream and by
its buoyancy.
❑ The plume’s buoyancy is related to the exit gas mass relative to the surrounding
gas mass.
Atmospheric dispersion
❑Increasing the exit gas velocity or the exit gas temperature will increase the plume rise.
❑The plume rise together with physical stack height is called the effective stack height.
❑The plume rise above the discharge point affects the downwind concentration at ground.
❑Higher the plume rise, the greater distance is for diluting the contaminated gases as they expand
and mix downward.
Atmospheric dispersion
• Downwind distance: The greater the distance between the point of discharge and a
ground level receptor downwind, the greater will be the volume of air available for
diluting the contaminants discharge before it reaches the receptor.
• Wind speed and direction: Wind direction determines the direction in which the
contaminated gas stream move across local terrain. The wind speed affects the plume
rise, rate of mixing and ground level concentration.
• An increase in wind speed will decrease the plume rise by bending the plume over more rapidly.
• An increase in wind speed will also increase the rate of dilution of effluent tending to lower the
downwind concentrations
• The decrease in plume rise tend to increase the ground level concentration.
• These effect, govern the distance downwind of source at which the ground level concentration
would be maximum.
• Stability: More unstable the atmosphere, the greater the diluting power.
Dispersion modelling
• A dispersion model is a mathematical description of the
meteorological transport and dispersion process that is quantified in
terms of source and meteorological parameters during a particular
time.
• The meteorological parameters required as input include wind
direction, wind speed and atmospheric stability.
• In some models vertical mixing and lapse rate can also be included.
• Stack physical height, diameter of stack at discharge point, the exit
gas temperature and velocity, and mass rate of emission of
pollutants.
Gausian Dispersion model
• Assumptions
1. Atmospheric stability: Atmospheric stability is uniform through out the layer in which the contaminated
gas stream is discharged.
1. Turbulent diffusion: Turbulent diffusion is a random activity and hence the dilution of the contaminated
gas stream in both the horizontal and vertical direction can be described by the normal or Gausian equation.
1. Effective height: The contaminated gas stream is released into the atmosphere at a distance above ground
level that is equal to the physical stack height plus the plume rise.
1. Dilution: The degree of dilution of the effluent plume is inversely proportional to the wind speed (u).
1. No reaction no deposition: The pollutant material that reaches ground level is totally reflected back into
the atmosphere that means no reaction no deposition at ground.
1. The ground reflection is accounted for by assuming a virtual source located at a distance of –H with
respect to ground level and emitting an imaginary plume with the same source strength as the real
source being modelled.
2. The same general idea can be used to establish other boundary layer conditions for the equations, such
as limiting horizontal or vertical mixing.
