Design of Road-Side Barriers to Mitigate Air Pollution near Roads
(Corresponding) Huertas J., Aguirre J., Lopez O., Lopez C.
Topic:
Air pollution
The effects of using solid barriers on the dispersion of air pollutants emitted from the traffic of vehicles on roads located over flat areas were quantified, aiming to identify the geometry that maximizes the mitigation effect of air pollution near the road at the lowest barrier cost. Toward that...Read more

Multi-scale high-resolution atmospheric emission inventory for the transport sector
(Corresponding) Lopes D., Augusto B., Rafael S., Graça D., Rosa M., Relvas H., Ferreira J., Reis J., Lopes M.
Topic:
Air pollution
This study aims to develop a multi-scale atmospheric emission inventory for the transport sector with high spatial and temporal resolution using Portugal as a case study. For that, a combination of the traditional method of emissions calculation with an innovative way to gather and process data (...Read more
