Air pollution is one of the most challenging problems facing theinternational community; it is widespread and growing in importance and has clear and known impacts on health and the environment. The rate ofdevelopment of the global economy brings new pressures and the willingness of governments to regulate air pollution is often balanced by concerns overthe economic impact of such regulation. Science is the key to identifying the nature and scale of air pollution impacts and is essential in the formulation of relevant information for regulatory decision-making. This book contains the proceedings of the Seventeenth Annual Meeting in the successful series of International Conferences dealing with Modelling, Monitoring and Management of Air Pollution. The conference brought together researchers who are active in the study of air contaminants to exchange information through the presentation and discussionof papers dealing with the wide variety of topics, including: Air Pollution Modelling; Energy and Air Quality; Air Quality Management; Urban Air Management; Effects of Air Pollution on Ecosystems; Emission studies; Historical Air Pollution and Forensic Studies; Monitoring and measuring; Global and Regional Studies; Aerosols and Particles; Climate Change and Air Pollution; Indoor Air Pollution; Environmental Health Effects; Policy Studies; Techniques for Atmospheric Pollutant Reduction; Pollution Prevention; Pollution in Developing Countries.
