摘要
A three-dimensional numerical mesoscale air quality model is applied to study the effect of pollutant recirculation in the eastern Mediterranean, southern coastal plain of Israel. The model is based on the integration of two submodels:a mesoscale submodel and a Lagrangian dispersion submodel. The model is validated using air quality data measured during a severe pollution event in the city of Ashdod. When the recirculated portion of the pollution was separated from that directly contributed by the sources, it was found to constitute about 50% of the total concentration measured.
