Aim of the modeling is twofold: (i) to investigate the flow-field and carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations in the area and (ii) compare with measurements. The latter is achieved due to the availability of measurements, contrary to previous street-canyon-simulation studies where ADREA-HF was used and where no measurements were available. Results show a tendency of overprediction of CO concentration by the model that is attributed mostly to the uncertainty of the meteorological data and emission levels within the studied time frames. The concentration distribution and flow field within the canyon are shown to be highly correlated whereas the incanyon induced vortex plays a prominent role in the concentration dispersion. </p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>30</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>434</first_page><last_page>439</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">530</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000530</doi><timestamp>1713860929</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/530</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
