Exposure modeling can be an effective way to characterize the dispersion of airborne contaminants as part of a workplace or community exposure assessment. By using tools like air dispersion modeling, we can better understand how contaminants behave in different environments, helping to ensure safety and compliance. Air Dispersion Modeling for Exposure Assessment  Air dispersion modeling […]

C&IH will participate in the upcoming 2024 Annual Meeting for the Society of Risk Analysis (SRA) being held in Austin, Texas on December 8 through 12.
