The end result of policy-related experimental and theoretical scientific work on the abatement of atmospheric emissions is a hierarchy of computer models that can be used to analyse and predict the behaviour of pollutants on urban, local regional and global scales. Such models are required to simulate an extremely complex natural situation in ...
This volume presents the results and conclusions of the Application Project of EUROTRAC about the state of the troposphere over Europe, drawing from the plethora of scientific results. The various findings and recommendations on local, regional and global scales illustrate the complexities of the situation and indicate the subsequent difficulties ...
This book and the accompanying CD-ROM record the activities of Symposium 2000, the sixth symposium of the coordinated EUREKA environmental project, EUROTRAC, and the second of its phase, EUROTRAC-2. The number of new scientific results and findings illustrates the comprehensive nature of this highly successful project.The book contains the invited ...
The "European Experiment on the Transport and Transformation of Environmentally Relevant Trace Constituents over Europe" (EUROTRAC) was established in 1986 to tackle the scientific problem and combine the expertise, knowledge and resources in Europe, in order to apply them over a large region covering the greater part of the continent. EUROTRAC is ...
Nitrogen compounds play a central role in atmospheric chemistry and are associated with several of today's major environmental issues. Nitrogen oxide emissions from combustion sources are involved in the complex atmospheric processes leading to the formation of photochemical oxidants. Such pollutants at ground level are responsible for ...
The formation, transport and impact of photo-oxidants, e.g., ozone, is a major environmental problem in densely populated areas with corresponding high emissions of ozone precursor substances such as NOx and volatile organic carbon compounds (VOC). Although major progress has been achieved within the last decade, there are still significant ...
A major environmental concern is the increasing burden on all scales of photo-oxidants, acidifying substances and potential nutrients in the troposphere. These lead to episodes of summer smog, and appreciable damage to eco-systems both on land and at sea. Underlying the environmental effects is the complex scientific problem of linking the man ...
In a giant step toward managing today's pollution problems more effectively, this report lays out a framework to coordinate an interdisciplinary and international investigation of the chemical composition and cycles of the troposphere. The approach includes geographical surveys, field measurements, the development of appropriate models, and ...
