Features and Capabilities of AERMOD
Some of the primary features and capabilities of AERMOD are:
- Source types: Multiple point, area and volume sources
- Source releases: Surface, near surface and elevated sources
- Source locations: Urban or rural locations. Urban effects are scaled by population.
- Plume types: Continuous, buoyant plumes
- Plume deposition: Dry or wet deposition of particulates and/or gases
- Plume dispersion treatment: Gaussian model treatment in horizontal and in vertical for stable atmospheres. Non-Gaussian treatment in vertical for unstable atmospheres
- Terrain types: Simple or complex terrain
- Building effects: Handled by PRIME downwash algorithms
- Meteorology data height levels: Accepts meteorology data from multiple heights
- Meteorological data profiles: Vertical profiles of wind, turbulence and temperature are created

Famous quotes containing the words features and/or capabilities:
“The features of our face are hardly more than gestures which force of habit made permanent. Nature, like the destruction of Pompeii, like the metamorphosis of a nymph into a tree, has arrested us in an accustomed movement.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“I maintain that I have been a Negro three times—a Negro baby, a Negro girl and a Negro woman. Still, if you have received no clear cut impression of what the Negro in America is like, then you are in the same place with me. There is no The Negro here. Our lives are so diversified, internal attitudes so varied, appearances and capabilities so different, that there is no possible classification so catholic that it will cover us all, except My people! My people!”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
