Application of airport meteorological data for the determination of atmospheric mixing height

Mixing height is a major meteorological factor affecting pollutant dispersion in the vertical direction. It has been commonly used in air quality models. Usually adiabatic method and Nozaki model are used for determining the mixing height. The adiabatic method needs daily sounding data while the Nozaki method requires extensive meteorological information. However, these data are unavailable in meteorological stations. On the other hand, in …
