| Summary: | Ship exhaust gas has become an essential source of air pollution in recent years. To assess the impact of ship exhaust gas on the atmospheric environment and human health, this paper studies the problem of ship exhaust gas diffusion in the port area. According to automatic identification system (AIS) data, ship exhaust gas is estimated based on the bottom-up method, and the result of emission calculation is entered into a Gaussian puff model to calculate the superposition of the diffusion of gaseous pollutants from multiple ships. In addition, the results of a case study of the diffusion of ship exhaust gas in the western area of Shenzhen Port in China show that the distribution of the NO<sub>2</sub> concentration in the studied area is not stable, the diffusion of exhaust gas from multiple ships mainly affects some areas near large ship berths at night, and there is a small impact on the whole study area. This lays a foundation for monitoring and treating the atmospheric environment in the port area.
