25 Micro-scale modeling may not adequately simulate dispersion in complex urban environments on a one- for-one hourly basis Tracer data may need further QA –e.g., 10 hours of 32 hours of winter measurements show the peak concentration higher at 2 km from source rather than 1 km from source. Working Draft - Do Not Cite or Quote Possible Reasons for Scatter in Data

26 Screening of Tracer Data Need to screen observed data Suggested criteria for screening –Observation near limit of detection or saturation –Siting and exposure criteria for each sampler –Equipment maintenance history –Potential of tampering by curious public or domestic animals Working Draft - Do Not Cite or Quote

27 Tracer Experiment Summary Develop a source-receptor relationship database –Screen and stratify data Evaluate dispersion models for community health modeling Provide a recommendation for community health models and model options Working Draft - Do Not Cite or Quote
