Assessment of carbon monoxide levels at signalized intersection and roadway

An assessment of carbon monoxide (CO) levels had been carried out using CAL3QHC air dispersion model in simulating the aerial variation of 1-hr averaged CO levels at 1) Mabel Signalized Intersection, Kuching, and 2) Sembulan Roadway, Kota Kinabalu. Field measurements on CO levels at hot-spots during...
