Variability of physical meteorology in urban areas at different scales: implications for air quality
نویسندگان
چکیده
AQ in cities varies time and space with the atmosphere's physical state. UBL seasonal–diurnal variations (Beijing, Paris) will impact AQ. Isolated clusters of tall buildings affect flow pollutant exchange (London, Beijing).

The air quality in Danish urban areas.
The Danish air pollution abatement is based by and large on emission control. Since the ratification of the international sulfur protocol of 1985, there has been a continuous tightening of the permissible sulfur content in fuels and of the maximum emissions from power plants. As a consequence, the total annual emission of sulfur dioxide (SO2) has been reduced from 450,000 tons in the seventies ...
متن کاملLong-term Changes in Extreme Air Pollution Meteorology and the Implications for Air Quality
Extreme air pollution meteorological events, such as heat waves, temperature inversions and atmospheric stagnation episodes, can significantly affect air quality. Based on observational data, we have analyzed the long-term evolution of extreme air pollution meteorology on the global scale and their potential impacts on air quality, especially the high pollution episodes. We have identified sign...
متن کاملSpatial variability of soil organic carbon in grasslands: implications for detecting change at different scales.
Extensive data used to quantify broad soil C changes (without information about causation), coupled with intensive data used for attribution of changes to specific management practices, could form the basis of an efficient national grassland soil C monitoring network. Based on variability of extensive (USDA/NRCS pedon database) and intensive field-level soil C data, we evaluated the efficacy of...

متن کاملAir quality assessment in urban areas of Gipuzkoa (Spain).
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the air quality to which a population of 90,000 inhabitants in the province of Gipuzkoa (Basque Country, Spain) is exposed. The population resides in a periurban environment, where industrial activity (11 iron and steel foundries) is scattered among residential areas. METHODS Throughout 2006 and 2007, levels of particulate matter less than 2.5mm in diameter (PM(2.5)) we...
