Air Quality Modeling
TCEQ staff use computer models to simulate the meteorological conditions and chemical reactions that contribute to the formation of air pollutants and to predict how air quality in a region will be affected by economic and population growth, and by reducing pollution emissions.
Introduction to Air Quality Modeling
Computer models are used to simulate the meteorological conditions and chemical reactions that contribute to the formation of air pollutants and to predict how air quality in a region will be affected by economic and population growth, and by reducing pollution emissions.
