They are formed by air masses moving across a landscape, thus influencing the <a href="/wiki/Atmosphere" title="Atmosphere">atmospheric</a> composition of that area. Their boundaries are loosely defined, but can be quantified. Airborne chemicals disperse throughout an airshed and enter bodies of water in the area.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Defining_airsheds">Defining airsheds</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Airshed&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Defining airsheds"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Airsheds are difficult to define precisely because they are spatially variable and can change over time. Their boundaries may change due to weather conditions and the sources of pollutants. Airsheds can be quantified for specific events, by season, or over a long period of time.
