Abstract
The Lagrangian dispersion model and its advantages while applying it in monitoring nuclear power plants in complex terrain at varying meteorological conditions is explained.
The software developed has been installed at the Bavarian State Authority to monitor its six nuclear power plants.
Input data are routinely measured meteorological data as well as emission data for iodine, aerosols and noble gas.
