Abstract

Accurate prediction of the transport and deposition of atmospheric radioactive aerosols necessitates the integration of multiple tightly coupled multiphysical processes. This study systematically evaluates the governing principles underlying transport behaviour, deposition fluxes, charge development, radioactive particles with particular emphasis on hot, arid environments and dust storm conditions. In addition, it presents a critical synthesis of recent progress in the modelling radioactive aerosol transport in the open atmosphere, highlighting the coupled interaction between electrical charging and transport phenomena. This work is intended both as a structured introduction for newcomers and as an updated critical resource for experts aiming to identify decent technological progress, key knowledge gaps, and future research priorities in the field.

Keywords: Radioactive aerosols, Transport dynamics, Charge evolution, Deposition mechanisms, Dispersion Modelling, Atmospheric simulation
