As an input for the negotiations on the revision of the EU Thematic Strategy on Air Pollution, IIASA has prepared a further set of reports that analyze the cost-effective scope for further air quality improvements in Europe. More
IIASA has developed sets of global emission fields for the major atmospheric pollutants that can be readily used as input for experiments with global atmospheric chemistry and climate models. More
EU Member States are invited for bilateral consultations on input data used for the preparation of the baseline scenario for the revision of the EU air policy. More
On May 4, 2012, Parties to the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution reached agreement on a revised Gothenburg Protocol on further reductions of air pollutants in Europe. This report estimates the environmental improvements that are expected from the agreed emission reduction requirements. More
As an input for the negotiations on the revision of the EU Thematic Strategy on Air Pollution, IIASA has prepared five reports that analyze the cost-effective scope for further air quality improvements in Europe. More
IIASA has prepared a background report for the 49th meeting of the Working Group on Strategies and Review to inform negotiations on the revision of the Gothenburg Protocol about the scope for further environmental improvements. More
A new CIAM report presents estimates of the ammonia emission reductions and costs of the measures as an input to the negotiations on a revised Gothenburg Protocol More
The GAINS model has been used to identify emission reduction strategies for methane and black carbon that mitigate near-term climate change and are simultaneously beneficial to human health. The research, involving NASA, SEI, and others, and published in Science (Jan 13) identifies 14 measures that could reduce warming by ~0.5°C by 2050 and avoid up to 4.7 million premature deaths annually.
