DENSE NETWORK OF NEAR-FIELD OBSERVATIONS OF BUILDING-CANOPY WINDS AND TRACER CONCENTRATIONS DURING THE URBAN 2000 EXPERIMENT

摘要

The URBAN 2000 field campaign was conducted in Salt Lake City during October 2000. This multi-scale experiment included continuous, month-long observations and ten Intensive Observation Periods (IOPs). Tracers were released during six of the IOPs from midnight to early morning. Concentration and wind were measured by several researchers in some detail from near the source and out to 5-km downwind. URBAN 2000 was conducted by the Chemical and Biological National Security Program, US Department of Energy and involved scientists from 5 National Laboratories, NOAA, DoD, and a few international agencies.
