<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#333333;background:white">The research project is focused on the near-source area, including building affected dispersion (e.g., building downwash) and dispersion of
mobile source emissions (near-road barrier and depressed roadway effects), and boundary layer characterizations in urban areas, and will focus on the development and improvement of the EPA's AERMOD dispersion model, which is used in all 50 states for a wide
variety of air quality evaluations, including air quality permitting, transportation hot-spot conformity, air toxics evaluations, National Environmental Policy Act demonstrations, and health impact studies.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
