Air quality

Air pollution is a problem in developed and developing countries and transcends all scales with in the atmosphere from the local to the global scale with handovers and feedbacks at each scale of interaction. In this framework, the air quality modelling group develop and exploit Air Quality Models (AQMs) which are numerical representations of the atmospheric processes that allow to gain understanding about the behaviour of pollutants in the atmosphere, especially the relation between natural and anthropogenic emissions, atmospheric transport, chemistry and deposition.
