An Obscuring Aerosol Dispersion Model. Volume I. Development and Exposition.

摘要

This report presents the development and exposition of a non-Gaussian aerosol dispersion model and, the effect of the aerosol cloud on electrooptical systems. Explicitly, algorithms are provided to calculate both the transmitted and backscattered (glare) radiation components. Finally, a validation of the model was performed with good to excellent agreement. This validation included the space-time history of cloud geometry and aerosol concentration. (Author)
