13 – 27 October 2014: 1st EuNetAir Air Quality Joint–Exercise Intercomparison at Aveiro

COST Action TD1105 EuNetAir has planned a Working Group (WG1–WG4) Meeting on New Sensing Technologies and Modelling for Air–Pollution Monitoring, that will take place at Institute for Environment and Development (IDAD), University of Aveiro, in Aveiro (Portugal) on 14 – 15 October 2014.
COST Action TD1105 EuNetAir has jointly organized the first Air Quality Joint–Exercise Intercomparison on Evaluation and Assessment of Environmental Gas/PM MicroSensors versus Standardised AQ Referenced Methods by Experimental Campaign of Air Quality Urban Monitoring to be held in Aveiro (Portugal) on 13 – 27 October 2014 under management of IDAD – Institute for Environment and Development, and University of Aveiro, coordinated by Prof. Carlos Borrego.
Air Quality Campaign at Aveiro city centre by an Air Quality Mobile Laboratory will be performed by continuous environmental measurements with standardized equipment and referenced analyzers: CO, NOx, O3, SO2, PM10, Benzene, VOC, temperature, humidity, wind velocity/direction, solar radiation, precipitation (rain).
All COST Action EuNetAir partners are kindly invited to install their micro–sensors and sensor–systems side–by–side with air quality standardized equipment in the IDAD Mobile Laboratory to perform the 2–week AQ experimental campaign at Aveiro city for air quality urban monitoring.
A Call for Participation (see attached pdf file) has been opened to invite producers/manufacturers of high–performance AQ devices and researchers/scientists from Action partnership and MoU–signed Countries including NNC approved institutions.
An Application Form as Technical Draft (containing: Name of Participant Institution; Names of the Institution Members that will travel to Aveiro; Requests/Specifications for Sensors/Equipment Installation; Gas/Variables Measured; Other Remarks) is requested from the interested Researchers/Experts to be submitted to the Action management by deadline of 30 September 2014 to:
