Popis: | Smoke plumes of greater width but lesser thickness than predicted by Gaussian diffusion models have been documented by measurements from aircraft of the Colstrip, Montana, powerplant plume at downwind distances of 4–25 km. The plume has also been shown to be deflected as much as 20° away from the prevailing wind direction by the terrain. A particle formation rate of ~ 1016 s−1 in the plume over down-wind distances of 25–30 km has been estimated by using the plume profile measurements. |
