Zusammenfassung |
The quality of the urban air pollution forecast
critically depends on the mapping of emissions, the urban air pollution
models, and the meteorological data. The quality of the meteorological data
should be largely enhanced by using downscaled data from advanced numerical
weather prediction models. These different topics, as well as the
application of population exposure models, have traditionally been treated
in distinct scientific communities whose expertise needs to be combined to
enhance the possibilities of forecasting air pollution episodes in European
cities. For this purpose the EU project "Integrated Systems for Forecasting
Urban Meteorology, Air Pollution and Population Exposure'' (FUMAPEX)
(http://fumapex.dmi.dk), involving 22 organizations from 10
European countries, was initiated. The main objectives of the project are
the improvement of meteorological forecasts for urban areas, the connection
of numerical weather prediction models to urban air pollution and population
exposure models, the building of improved Urban Air Quality Information and
Forecasting Systems, and their application in cities in various European
climates. This paper overviews the project items and first two-years
results, it is an introduction to the whole ACP issue. |
