- Abstract
The article discusses the detailed simulations of atmospheric flow and dispersion in downtown Manhattan. The study aims to contribute for planning purposes and for real-time emergency response, which decision makers want to know whether either evacuation or shelter-in-place is required and what areas are affected and for how long a time. It states that the study is a part of a sequence of intensive urban field experiments that have taken place over the past five years, sponsored collaboratively by several agencies.
