RI-URBANS aims to demonstrate how Service Tools (STs) from atmospheric Research Infrastructures (RIs) can be adapted and enhanced to better address the challenges and societal needs concerning air quality (AQ) in European cities and industrial hotspots. RI-URBANS responds to urgent needs to substantially reduce air pollution across EU by providing enhanced AQ observations in...

The proposed project will deliver development plans, guidelines, working examples and tools for the continuous upgrade of the CAMS regional service. This will encompass

• a in depth assessment of the CAMS regional forecasts and a prioritized list of proposed model developments,
• best practices for coupling forecasts to...

Organic aerosols (OA) affect climate forcing and human health, but still large uncertainties exist in their sources and evolution. A large fraction of submicron particulate matter, 20%90%, can be attributed to OA. Recent studies have shown that secondary organic aerosols (SOA) account for a large fraction of the OA burden. Most OA efficiently scatter visible radiation and...

The present tender concerns the continuation of the CAMS Regional production service (CAMS_50) for the period 2018-2021. The purpose of the service will remain to produce numerical data and mapping products providing information on air quality and atmospheric composition on the European scale, with the aim of making it freely and easily accessible to the various user...
