Characteristics of Air Toxics from Multiple Sources in the Kaohsiung Coastal Industrial Complex and Port Area by Jiun-Horng Tsai, Pei-Chi Yeh, Jing-Ju Huang, Hung-Lung Chiang

“…In addition, the AERMOD (AMS (American Meteorological Society)/EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)) diffusion model was employed to simulate the increases in target pollutant concentrations and to analyze the influence and spatial distribution of various emission sources on atmospheric HAP concentrations in nearby communities. …”
