Abstract :
The future air-pollution control system that is described in Parts I and II of this article will be equipped with sensors to monitor the current status of local air pollution and meteorological factors such as wind, stability, or mixing depth. The system will be furnished not only with data on the location and strength of pollution sources and synoptic weather conditions, but with any other information needed to forecast air quality for a period of 24 hours or more. Once these statistics have been compiled, however, it is the job of the mathematical model to convert the data into pragmatic decisions for controlling the air resource.
