The guide addresses the meteorological investigations needed at different stages in a site survey, in site evaluation and in assessing off-site consequences of operational states and accident conditions. It covers meteorological phenomena and mechanisms involved in the dispersion of radioactive effluents, calculation methods for concentration and deposition, input data needed for calculations, meteorological instrumentation requirements, data analysis system requirements and other related topics.
