Abstract: In the present paper, a simple 2D air pollution transport model is investigated applying the sequential and the Strang–Marchuk operator splitting procedures. A comparison is done between the cases when the upwind scheme and the semi-Lagrangian scheme are used for solving the advection sub-problem.

Keywords: air pollution; pollution transport modelling; error analysis; operator splitting procedures; semi-Lagrangian method; advection.
