ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY RISK ASSESSMENTS AND PUBLIC POLICIES FOR AIR POLLUTION CONTROL

ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY RISK ASSESSMENTS AND PUBLIC POLICIES FOR AIR POLLUTION CONTROL 

Over the past several decades there have been increasingly strong demands in Europe and the United States that atmospheric chemistry research be directly useful in developing scientific risk assessments and public policies. For example, one component of the EUROTRAC program (European Experiment on Transport and Transformation of Environmentally Relevant Trace Constituents in the Troposphere) ...is expected to assimilate the scientific results from EUROTRAC and present them in a condensed form, together with recommendations where appropriate, so that they are suitable for use by those responsible for environmental planning and management in Europe (EUROTRAC, 1993).
