Environmental aerodynamics as part of wind engineering is provided. Of particular interest are the areas of pedestrian level winds and exhaust dispersion around buildings, which are introduced and discussed in the context of urban environment aerodynamics. 1. Introduction The area of environmental aerodynamics examines those aspects of wind engineering that are closely related to the effects of wind to the built environment in conjunction to basic environmental issues. Environmental aerodynamics is complementary to the so-called structural wind engineering, which deals with wind loading on structures. Environmental aerodynamics requires fundamental knowledge of wind engineering principles (Stathopoulos and Baniotopoulos 2007) in order to study phenomena such as pedestrian level winds and their effect to humans; dispersion of pollutants; natural and hybrid ventilation; snow dispersion and accumulation; wind flows over various topographies, as well as in the urban or building environment; and the like. Particular emphasis is placed here on pedestrian level winds and dispersion of pollutants in the urban and building environment.
