Simulations of the transport and deposition of <sup>137</sup>Cs over Europe after the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident: influence of varying emission-altitude and model horizontal and vertical resolution

The coupled model LMDZORINCA has been used to simulate the transport, wet and dry deposition of the radioactive tracer <sup>137</sup>Cs after accidental releases. For that reason, two horizontal resolutions were deployed and used in the model, a regular grid of 2.5° × 1.27°, and the same...
