EMEP particulate matter assessment report
EMEP/CCC Report 8/2007

Released: 2007/08/30: See the report

(Download of full report: 12.6 Mb pdf)

This EMEP PM Assessment Report (12.6Mb pdf)addresses the adequacy and completeness of the underpinning science upon which models currently used for policy development have been built. An important issue has been to strike a balance between the need to resolve a number of key scientific uncertainties and the desire to make progress with the integrated assessment modelling. It has been recognised that striking this balance is important for policy-making within the Working Group on Strategies and Review. The purpose of the report is to inform the policy process about the state of current understanding on PM issues and the level of confidence in PM models.
