One year of hourly data from the Hanford Meteorological Tower has been selected to represent a typical climatological distribution of the meteorological variables which control atmospheric diffusion, deposition, and resuspension. This data was used in a surface flux model to predict the probable value of both the initial air concentration, accounting for the depletion due to deposition, and the consequent air concentration of resuspended material whose source is the material deposited on the ground by the initial plume.
