three-dimensional model
Mathematical model used to simulate the variations in chemical composition over the earth's surface as a function of altitude with time.
Such models are very expensive to run, since they contain detailed descriptions of atmospheric transport and usually only contain a limited number of trace chemical species. More detailed chemistry is usually encountered in two-dimensional models, where the variation with longitude is not considered.
