Significance of traffic produced turbulence for urban dispersion modelling
TL;DR: In this paper, the street ventilation is controlled by the interaction between the microscale flow structures and the urban boundary layer flow above roof level and it is argued that both buoyancy-related and traffic-induced air motions are secondary street-ventilation mechanisms compared to the main wind-induced mechanism.
