Abstract

Verifying mathematical models of contaminant propagation in the boundary layer of the atmosphere by an experimental material or by observational data (estimating the adequacy of the model) is an important stage of creating such models. However, the impossibility of repeating an experiment under unchanged meteorological conditions and, as a consequence, the small size of the measurement data sample do not allow one to estimate the adequacy in a correct way. A new integral-transform-based method for estimating the adequacy of mathematical models is proposed. It can be used even in cases when only single measurements of concentration are available (among them, with different distribution functions at each point of the space). Data of individual experiments performed in different meteorological conditions can be combined. The efficiency of the method is illustrated by an example.
