What Does UAM Stand For?

UAM stands for Urban Airshed Model

The Urban Airshed Model (UAM) is a sophisticated computer modeling system designed to analyze and predict air quality in urban environments. It simulates the dispersion and transformation of airborne pollutants, taking into account meteorological conditions, topography, and emissions sources. UAM is instrumental for urban planners and environmental agencies in assessing the impact of regulatory policies, implementing air quality management strategies, and improving public health outcomes related to air pollution.
