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.

Characteristics of atmospheric transport into the Arctic troposphere
TL;DR: In this article, the Lagrangian particle dispersion model FLEXPART was used to construct a global data set of 1.4 million continuous trajectories and a climatology of transport in and to the Arctic was developed.
Xenon-133 and caesium-137 releases into the atmosphere from the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant: determination of the source term, atmospheric dispersion, and deposition
Andreas Stohl,Petra Seibert,Gerhard Wotawa,Delia Arnold,Delia Arnold,John F. Burkhart,Sabine Eckhardt,C. Tapia,Arturo Vargas,Teppei J. Yasunari +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors determined the emissions into the atmosphere of two isotopes, the noble gas xenon-133 (133Xe) and the aerosol-bound caesium-137 (137Cs), which have very different release characteristics as well as behavior in the atmosphere.

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.

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.

Evaluation and model impacts of alternative boundary-layer height formulations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study bulk formulations for the boundary-layer height which are currently in use for atmospheric modelling and show that the updated formulation has better performance for neutral boundary layers with upper level stratification.
