The study of turbulence in the atmosphere has seen considerable
progress in the last decade. To put it briefly: boundary-layer
meteorology, the branch of atmospheric science that concentrates on
turbulence in the lower atmosphere, has moved from the surface
layer into the boundary layer itself. The progress has been made on
all fronts: theoretical, numerical and observational. On the other
hand, air pollution modeling has not seen such a rapid evolution.
It has not benefited as much as it should have from the increasing
knowledge in the field of atmospheric turbulence. Air pollution
modeling is still in many ways based on observations and theories
of the surface layer only. This book aims to bring the reader up to
date on recent advances in boundary-layer meteorology and to pave
the path for applications in air pollution dispersion problems. The
text originates from the material presented during a short course
on Atmospheric Turbulence and Air Pollution Modeling held in The
Hague during September 1981. This course was sponsored and
organized by the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute, xi xii
PREFACE to which both editors are affiliated. The Netherlands
Government Ministry of Health and Environmental Protection and the
Council of Europe also gave support.
