Technical note: The Lagrangian particle dispersion model FLEXPART version 6.2

TL;DR: The Lagrangian particle dispersion model FLEXPART was originally designed for calculating the long-range and mesoscale dispersion of air pollutants from point sources, such as after an accident in a nuclear power plant.

Validation of the lagrangian particle dispersion model FLEXPART against large-scale tracer experiment data

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive validation of FLEXPART, a recently developed Lagrangian particle dispersion model based on meteorological data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, is described.

TrajStat: GIS-based software that uses various trajectory statistical analysis methods to identify potential sources from long-term air pollution measurement data

TL;DR: Using these methods, the geographic information system (GIS) based software, TrajStat, was developed to view, query, and cluster the trajectories and compute the potential source contribution function (PSCF) and concentration weighted trajectory (CWT) analyses when measurement data are included.

A near-field tool for simulating the upstream influence of atmospheric observations: The Stochastic Time-Inverted Lagrangian Transport (STILT) model

TL;DR: In this paper, the Stochastic Time-Inverted Lagrangian Transport (STILT) model is used to determine surface fluxes from atmospheric concentration data in the midst of distributed sources or sinks over land, and illustrate the use of the tool with CO2 data over North America.

Lagrangian ocean analysis: Fundamentals and practices

TL;DR: Lagrangian analysis is a powerful way to analyse the output of ocean circulation models and other ocean velocity data such as from altimetry as mentioned in this paper, where large sets of virtual particles are integrated within the 3D, time-evolving velocity fields.

A comprehensive meteorological modeling system?RAMS

TL;DR: In this paper, a range of applications of the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS), a comprehensive mesoscale meterological modeling system, are discussed, including large eddy simulations (LES) and simulations of thunderstorms, cumulus fields, mesoscales, convective systems, mid-latitude cirrus clouds, winter storms, mechanically and thermally-forced meso-scale systems, and mesoscopic atmospheric disperision.

Criteria for the selection of stochastic models of particle trajectories in turbulent flows

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationships between the various criteria are examined for a very general class of models and it is shown that most of the criteria are equivalent and also how a model can be designed to satisfy these criteria exactly and to be consistent with inertial-subrange theory.
