title: Calculating isotope concentrations using different schemes of dispersion parameters.
abstract: The investigated work aims to calculate the concentration of different isotopes through short downwind distances. A theoretical model was designed to calculate the isotope concentration in the wind. The mathematical calculation depends on wind speed, decay distance and the dilution factor to get the concentration of isotopes ((131)I, (133)I, (135)I and (137)Cs) detected in wind at different distances from a nuclear power station. There is a good agreement between the calculated and observed concentrations of (131)I, (133)I, (135)I and (137)Cs.
