DAPPLE – Dispersion of Air Pollution and its Penetration into the Local Environment
DAPPLE is the generic name for a number of large urban meteorology and dispersion studies conducted by a consortium of UK universities. The first of these ran from 2002 until 2006 and was funded by Infrastructure and Environment Programme. The second was funded by Research Programme and runs between 2006 and 2010. The field site for these projects was the area in Central London.
The final reports are available from the DAPPLE Outputs page as a single pdf.

Structure of DAPPLE pages
The Home page provides access to the individual project entries, currently DAPPLE-EPSRC, DAPPLE-HO and DYCE. On each DAPPLE project page you will find links as well as the menu buttons:
- Home – return to home page
- Who – project personnel (different for each project)
- Where – field site information
- How – project technical information
- News – current and archived project news
- Outputs – reports, access to data, etc.
On all subsequent pages this changes slightly – “Who” is replaced by “Background”:
- Background – a collection of relevant technical information
Structure of DYCE pages
On each DYCE project page there are menu buttons:
- DYCE – return to DYCE home page
- Who – project partners and funding
- How – project technical information
There is a button linked back to the DAPPLE home page on the DYCE home page.
