Abstract
Air pollutant release of either anthropogenic or natural sources is of increasing relevance because of its possible adverse effects and consequences on the ecosystem including humans. Initiatives related to environmental protocols are one witness to testify the necessity to understand and predict impact of dispersion of substances on environmental health and in case of incidents or accidents evaluate its risks on habitats.
