Pollution modeling

Dynamic meteorological models, much like air pollution models, strive to describe the physics and thermodynamics of atmospheric motions as accurately as is feasible. Besides being used in conjunction with air quaHty models, they ate also used for weather forecasting. Like air quaHty models, dynamic meteorological models solve a set of partial differential equations (also called primitive equations). This set of equations, which ate fundamental to the fluid mechanics of the atmosphere, ate referred to as the Navier-Stokes equations, and describe the conservation of mass and momentum. They ate combined with equations describing energy conservation and thermodynamics in a moving fluid (72) ...

Spectroscopic observations of globular clusters (GCs) have revealed star-to-star inhomogeneities in the light metals that are not observed in field stars. These light metal anomalies could be interpreted with a self-pollution scenario. But what about heavier (Z > 30) elements Do they also show abundance anomalies Up to now, no model has been developed for the synthesis of n-capture elements in GCs, and the self-pollution models do not explain the origin of their metallicity. In 1988, Truran suggested a test for the self-enrichment scenario [4], which could possibly explain the metallicity and the heavy metal abundances in GCs if self-enrichment occurred in GCs, even the most metal-rich clusters would show both high [a/Fe] ratios and r-process dominated heavy elements patterns, which characterize massive star ejecta as it is seen in the most metal-poor stars.
