Analytic solution of a one-dimensional equation for aerosol and gas dispersion in the stratosphere

The one-dimensional equation for dispersion of an inert tracer in an exponentially stratified fluid with exponential dispersion coefficient has a simple analytic solution: a form of the gamma distribution of which the usual Gaussian plume solution of the diffusion equation is a special case.
