Figure 2. Schematic diagrams of cross sections of the odor-exceeding part of the instantaneous plume at different heights (h _i) and the associated instantaneous odor-exceeding half-width (y _i): (a) 0 < hi < hmax; (b) hi = hmax; (c) hi = 0.

Figure 3. Schematic diagrams of the portion of time for (a) the different odor-exceeding widths and (b) the odor frequency.
