| Abstract: | Summary Dispersion and transport over complex terrain have been recognized as an important research field. In July 1988, for studying atmospheric dispersion in a mountain area, a tracer experiment has been performed in south alpine valleys near a mountain (Campo dei Fiori, 1226 m.a.s.l.). In this area air masses circulation in wind breeze conditions is frequent. This paper analyses the meteorological situation and the tracer dispersion during those experiments. First a reconstruction of the three-dimensional wind fields overCampo dei Fiori area, taking into account the effects of orography, surface thermal gradients, atmospheric stability and energy of air masses, has been performed. Then the tracer concentrations have been evaluated by means of suitable models and the results have been discussed.With 11 Figures |
