Development in Atmospheric Dispersion Modelling

Dear Colleagues,

It is well known that atmospheric dispersion concerns the movement of air pollutants in the ambient atmosphere. Its study is vital for a multitude of reasons, including human health, which is the most valuable asset in the world. Furthermore, the study of atmospheric dispersion modelling has advanced its capabilities by using, for example, state-of-the-art numerical codes and high-performance computers. In the literature on this subject, numerical simulations are performed either for forward problems (by knowing the source(s)) or inverse problems (when source(s) is(are) unknown). This Special Issue seeks state-of-the-art publications on atmospheric dispersion modelling, and studies on both forward and inverse simulations are welcome. In addition, all numerical methodologies are accepted. Finally, theoretical works that aim to improve atmospheric dispersion modelling are welcome. The ultimate objective of the Special Issue is to cover any gaps that exist in the literature concerning atmospheric dispersion modelling.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Atmosphere is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
