| Zusammenfassung |
| Urban air pollution is associated with significant adverse health effects.
Model-based abatement strategies are required and developed for the growing
urban populations. In the initial development stage, these are focussed on
exceedances of air quality standards caused by high short-term pollutant
concentrations. Prediction of health effects and implementation of urban air
quality information and abatement systems require accurate forecasting of
air pollution episodes and population exposure, including modelling of
emissions, meteorology, atmospheric dispersion and chemical reaction of
pollutants, population mobility, and indoor-outdoor relationship of the
pollutants. In the past, these different areas have been treated separately
by different models and even institutions. Progress in computer resources
and ensuing improvements in numerical weather prediction, air chemistry, and
exposure modelling recently allow a unification and integration of the
disjunctive models and approaches. The current work presents a novel
approach that integrates the latest developments in meteorological, air
quality, and population exposure modelling into Urban Air Quality
Information and Forecasting Systems (UAQIFS) in the context of the European
Union FUMAPEX project. The suggested integrated strategy is demonstrated for
examples of the systems in three Nordic cities: Helsinki and Oslo for
assessment and forecasting of urban air pollution and Copenhagen for urban
emergency preparedness. |
