- Abstract
The Hybrid Single-Particle La-grangian Integrated Trajectory model (HYSPLIT), developed by NOAA's Air Resources Laboratory, is one of the most widely used models for atmospheric trajectory and dispersion calculations. We present the model's historical evolution over the last 30 years from simple hand-drawn back trajectories to very sophisticated computations of transport, mixing, chemical transformation, and deposition of pollutants and hazardous materials. We highlight recent applications of the HYSPLIT modeling system, including the simulation of atmospheric tracer release experiments, radio-nuclides, smoke originated from wild fires, volcanic ash, mercury, and wind-blown dust.
