Atmospheric dispersion of air pollutants carbon monoxide and particulate matter around road intersections in Singapore

The established CAL3QHC model for air pollution modeling of carbon monoxide (CO)and particulate matter (PM)is studied to examine its applicability for use under Singapore environmental settings. To date, the CAL3QHC model is the best one to predict air pollutant CO concentration and is able to predi...
