The results are shown for A, C and F stability at a downwind distance of 500 m and at ground level. The full curves correspond to a detector placed below the plume centerline (y₀ = 0), whereas the dashed curves correspond to a detector placed at a crosswind distance of 300 m.

9. Figure 9. The Kalman filtered state variables (left) and associated standard deviations (right). The solid curves show measured values, whereas the dashed curves are the Kalman filter estimates. The Lidar estimates of h at the downwind distance of the detectors (∼200 m) are obtained by linear interpolation between the release height (stack height) and the Lidar measured plume height at ∼400 m from the release point.
