Purpose
of the Workshop:
The purpose of this workshop is to bring together international
experts from the global and regional atmospheric chemistry
communities to assess the current state of knowledge,
identify research needs, and improve coordination of
research efforts with regard to a series of specific
scientific questions of interest to the international
environmental policy and research communities:
- Does the current state of knowledge about the transport
of photooxidants and fine particles
- across the North Atlantic to and from
North America and Europe
- into and across the Arctic
allow the calculation of source-receptor relationships
between anthropogenic emissions in North America and
Europe and concentrations and visibility impacts in
North America, Europe, and the Arctic?
- What are the key uncertainties in these source-receptor
relationships?
- What research activities could help reduce these
uncertainties?
