Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is the third volume in a series of publications dedicated to “Emerging Technologies for Observation of Air Pollution” (1st Edition; 2nd Edition).
The problem of poor air quality still influences inhabitant’s life in all cities of the globe. During growing urbanization scientific research shows origin of air pollution from local scales and from regional and global scales including interactions with climate protection measures. Additionally, the public awareness is growing to improve management and assessment strategies and effective control policies for reducing the health impact of air pollution.
The focus of this Special Issue is on new research contributions on developments in observation techniques and data operation algorithms which enable personal air pollution exposure determination, as well as new conclusions about sources of air pollutants and emission reduction measures. New research results about spatially complete information on air pollutants, about urban air quality observations by smart air quality networks, as well as corresponding near-real time numerical simulations at the small scale are ideal contributions to this Special Issue.
We can offer substantial discounts for high-quality papers.
