The fast and accurate identification of unknown releases helps in an effective
implementation of emergency preparedness (including plume exposure assessment) and …

Atmospheric dispersion models play an important role in nuclear power plant accident
management. A reliable estimation of radioactive material distribution in short range (about …

Modern society is confronted with emerging threats from chemical, biological, and
radiological (CBR) hazardous substances, which are intensively utilized in the chemical …

We consider several approaches to a design of a regional-to-continent-scale automatic
pollen monitoring network in Europe. Practical challenges related to the arrangement of …

Tracking of an atmospheric release of pollution is usually based on measurements provided
by stationary networks, occasionally complemented with deployment of mobile sensors. In …

Sensor monitoring is foundational to source term estimation (STE). Recently, stochastic STE
methods based mainly on Bayesian inference have been attracting attention. However, few …

Air quality monitoring systems differ in composition and accuracy of observations and their
temporal and spatial coverage. A monitoring system's performance can be assessed by …

Accurate simulation of boundary layer surface meteorological parameters is essential to
achieve good forecasting of weather and atmospheric dispersion. This paper is devoted to a …

In the event of an accidental atmospheric release of radionuclides from a nuclear power
plant, accurate real-time forecasting of the activity concentrations of radionuclides is acutely …

Abstract In 1993 the University of Extremadura initiated the design, construction and
management of the Radiological Alert Network of Extremadura (RAREx). The goal was to …
