Athens airport air quality study by remote sensing with DOAS, FTIRand ceilometer

摘要

The impact of air traffic on the atmosphere was subject to several works in the last years. But little scientific work has been done concerning airport air quality. Airports themselves often measure concentrations of the main pollutants and use dispersion models to asses the air quality situation. Emission inventories of airport are not well known generally because a lot of different emission sources exist. A database is required to characterise real-world emission source strengths as well as air quality and meteorological data at airports that will serve as an input and as validation data for modelling work. Dedicated studies were performed to follow these objectives.
