Application of linear minimum variance estimation to the multi-model ensemble of atmospheric radioactive Cs-137 with observations [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020
Great efforts have been made to simulate atmospheric pollutants, but their spatial and temporal distributions are still highly uncertain. Observations can measure their concentrations with high accuracy but cannot estimate their spatial distributions due

Simulation of secondary radioactive air pollution in Ukraine due to the wind lift of radionuclides.

open access: yesMathematical machines and systems, 2021
The paper presents the results of the simulation of secondary air pollution scenario in Ukraine due to the wind lift of anthropogenic radionuclides during a dust storm in April 2020. A variant of the Bagnold formula was used to parameterize the intensity of radionuclide resuspension.
