skos:definition "The spreading of radionuclides in air (<i><b>aerodynamic dispersion</b></i>) or water <br/>
(<i><b>hydrodynamic dispersion</b></i>) resulting mainly from physical 'processes' affecting <br/>the velocity of different molecules in the medium.<br/>
Often used in a more general sense combining all 'processes' (including <br/>molecular 'diffusion') that result in the spreading of a plume. The terms <br/><i><b>atmospheric dispersion</b></i> and <i><b>hydrodynamic dispersion</b></i> are used in this more <br/>general sense for plumes in air and water, respectively.<br/>In normal language synonymous with 'dispersal', but 'dispersion' is mostly used <br/>more specifically as defined above, whereas 'dispersal' is typically (though not <br/>universally) used as a more general expression.<br/>See also 'advection' and 'diffusion'.<br/>" (en)
