Pollution Transport Patterns Obtained Through Generalized Lagrangian Coherent Structures

Identifying atmospheric transport pathways is important to understand the effects of pollutants on weather, climate, and human health. The atmospheric wind field is variable in space and time and contains complex patterns due to turbulent mixing. In such a highly unsteady flow field, it can be chall...
