Since the 1989 publication of the original modeling approaches assembled into AGDISP, significant advances have been made in the development and validation of spray drift models. The latest version of AGDISP (version 8.08) now embodies the latest refinements to the computational engine first developed for NASA, improved by the USDA Forest Service, and implemented by the Spray Drift Task Force and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency into a regulatory version. This article updates the previous summary of AGDISP, builds on a recent publication summarizing the regulatory version of the model, and includes the most recent modeling additions of atmospheric stability effects, vortical decay, simple terrain features, plant canopy, riparian barriers, and the aerial release of dry materials.
