Atopic diseases in changing climate, land use and air quality (ATOPICA)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

There is an urgent need to understand how global and regional climate, land use and air quality changes will impact human health. Our consortium constitutes an innovative and multidisciplinary approach to explore the combined pan-European impact of changes in climate, land use and air pollution on allergen pollen-induced diseases through a chain of quantitative physical and statistical models. We ...

megaCITY - Zoom for the ENvironment (CITYZEN)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2011,

"We will determine the air pollution distribution and change in and around hotspots over the last decade from extensive satellite and in-situ observations and we will employ a series of different scale models in order to analyze the impacts of air pollution hot spots on regional and global air quality including potential future changes for various climate scenarios. Focus is on ozone and particula ...
