Small organisms are lifted and maintained in the air by eddy diffusion and rising thermal currents, sometimes reaching heights exceeding 16 km(10 miles) in air currents and by lateral mixing.

The tetroon is a tetrahedral balloon used for horizontal sounding. It was developed to withstand the extremely low pressures of high-altitude flight; the straight seals joining its four triangular faces are stronger than the curved seals of the more traditionally shaped balloons. Tetroons have been used extensively in tracing low-level atmospheric currents by following their movement with radar; they have thus increased the meteorologist's understanding of atmospheric turbulence, low-level vertical motions, and air pollution dispersion. 3, record 12, English, - tetroon

L'Aéroclipper est un nouvel instrument de mesure conçu pour faire des mesures quasi-lagrangiennes des paramètres de l'interface océan-atmosphère. Un Aéroclipper est constitué d'un ballon tétraédrique fermé de 6 à 7 mètres d'arête, gonflé à l'hélium et stabilisé verticalement à une hauteur de 60 m par un «guiderope». La forme tétraédrique du ballon permet d'avoir un plus fort coefficient de traînée (meilleure prise au vent et donc trajectoire plus «lagrangienne») comparé à un ballon sphérique d'égal volume. De plus, ces ballons sont beaucoup plus faciles et peu coûteux à réaliser avec un matériaux permettant de minimiser les fuites d'hélium. 3, record 12, French, - ballon%20t%C3%A9tra%C3%A9drique

Dispersion theory.... Turbulent motion is one of the most fundamental atmospheric properties which causes diffusion of air pollutants.... The basic sets of parameters affecting diffusion can be classified as meteorological, topographical and source characteristics. The first two, which include wind speed, wind direction and thermal stability, are mutually dependent. The latter set depends on source type, height and emission rate.... The distinction between point and area sources depends on the scale of the problem under examination.

Between the source and sink of a pollutant in the atmosphere dispersion and transport occur simultaneously. Dispersion is caused by turbulent eddies which develop in air that is thermally unstable or that is subjected to a strong wind shear. Transport is controlled by air circulations whose driving force may be local, regional or global in extent. 1, record 26, English, - air%20driving%20force
