Climatic potential of atmosphere dispersion in the territory of the Urals

This paper is devoted to the research of speciotemporal variable conditions for self-cleaning of surface atmosphere in the territory of the Urals. For this purpose the method put forward by T.S.Selegej and co-authors has been applied. The researchers have used the data taken from handbooks on the USSR climate issued in 1966 and 1968 to calculate the climatic potential of atmosphere dispersion. The scientists have calculated the climatic potential values of atmosphere dispersion in the Urals on a monthly and annual basis. The calculations have been made at eleven meteorological stations located in Perm, Sverdlovsk, Chelyabinsk and Kurgan regions. Unfortunately, the handbooks on the USSR climate contain no data required for calculations of climatic potential of atmosphere dispersion on territory of Bashkiria. The annual values of climatic potential of atmosphere dispersion vary from 0.47 in Kudymkar to 0.97 in Krasnoufisk. Thus, the annual values of climatic potential of atmosphere dispersion allow the researchers to determine quite favorable conditions for the dispersion of impurities in the atmosphere at ten meteorological stations in the region under study, and extremely favorable conditions for such dispersion at one meteorological station...
