HIRES is a high resolution mesoscale atmospheric modelling system to which has recently been added an atmospheric pollutant dispersion and chemical reaction module. This module, referred to as AIRCHEM, has a set of transport (advection), diffusion, deposition and chemical reaction components. The co...
