Abstract
Dispersion has been calculated for a fictitious scenario of an accidental 137Cs release in a nuclear power plant in Almaraz,
Spain, with the Real-time On-line De-cisiOn Support system for nuclear emergencies, RODOS, and the FLEXPART lagrangian
particle dispersion model coupled with the PSU/NCAR Mesoscale Model, MM5-V3.7-Flexpart (V6.2). Results show
differences in the evolution of the radioactive plume and its spreading through the valley.
