FLEXWEB builds on FLEXPART

FLEXPART (FLEXible PARTicle dispersion model) is a widely used Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Model (LPDM) designed for simulating the atmospheric transport, diffusion, and deposition of tracers. It operates by tracking the trajectories of a large number of 'particles' released into the atmosphere, allowing it to calculate source-receptor relationships, concentration fields, and atmospheric transport patterns for various applications (e.g., pollutant releases, wildfire smoke, or greenhouse gases). For more information please refer to flexpart.eu
This service employs the latest version of ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis data, which provides a comprehensive and high-resolution dataset of atmospheric conditions. The ERA5 dataset is crucial for initializing and driving the FLEXPART model, ensuring accurate simulations of particle dispersion based on real-world meteorological data.
