A sub-interval is specified as a number of scans. The number of scans for a sub-
interval is given by:
Desired sub-interval (secs) / scan rate (secs)
In an example where the scan rate is 1 second and the Output Flag is set every 60
minutes, the standard deviation is calculated from all 3600 scans when the sub-
interval is 0. With a sub-interval of 900 scans (15 minutes) the standard deviation
is the average of the four sub-interval standard deviations. The last sub-interval is
weighted if it does not contain the specified number of scans.
There are three output options, which specify the values calculated.

Mean horizontal wind speed,

Standard deviation is calculated using the Yamartino algorithm. This option
complies with EPA guidelines for use with straight-line Gaussian dispersion
models to model plume transport.
