Direct atmospheric measurements from the Methane Emissions Technology Evaluation Center (METEC), as well as a detailed computational mesh of on-site structures, are used to calibrate the turbulent closure model. By comparing the CFD model with and without the computational mesh of structures, it is shown that structures on METEC exhibit only a small effect on concentrations predicted by the CFD model. The calibrated CFD model is then used to assess the fidelity of the commonly employed Gaussian puff model that ignores the effect of any structures or topography. Despite the presence of structures, the Gaussian puff model is in consistent agreement with predictions from the CFD model, however both models fail to capture certain trends in the measurement data. To show that one cannot conclude, in general, that methane transport is unaffected by structures, a simulation study is performed with an emission source placed upwind of a large structure. In this case, it is found that predictions from the Gaussian puff model can deviate significantly from the CFD model due the Gaussian model’s inability to resolve spatially inhomogeneous wind fields caused by structures. This finding highlights the continued importance of CFD modeling for evaluating atmospheric dispersion models in environments with complex structures and topography.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37150,"journal":{"name":"Atmospheric Environment: X","volume":"27 ","pages":"Article 100326"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144364912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These impacts include changes in atmospheric radiation, cloud formation, atmospheric circulation, precipitation patterns, and air quality, as well as their effects on land cover, safety, and public health. Wildfire emissions include various pollutants such as particulate matter that alter the Earth's energy balance, reduce air quality, and impact cloud microphysics.

Advances in satellite retrievals and modeling techniques have improved the ability to monitor, analyze, and predict these complex interactions.
