Project Abstract
It is estimated that 400,000 premature deaths in Europe annually are due to poor air quality, with 1300 of those in Ireland. The Mobile Air Research Laboratory will fill a gap in our knowledge by undertaking measurements using state-of-art instruments measuring gas and particle pollutants in real-time at location. These measurements will be used to attribute the pollutants to their likely source. MARL will inform about the air quality in much higher detail to standard measurements. It will also facilitate evaluation of interventions and is compatible with our National policies on sustainability Climate change and Clean air.
