Assessment of the unified analytical solution of the steady-state atmospheric diffusion equation for stable conditions

In this work, the performance of a unified formal analytical solution for the simulation of atmospheric diffusion problems under stable conditions is evaluated. The eigenquantities required by the formal analytical solution are obtained by solving numerically the associated eigenvalue problem based...
