Numerical Study of Regional Air Pollution Transport and Photochemistry in Greece

The aim of the present project is to study the transport and photochemistry of regional air pollution in Greece using numerical models, a higher-order turbulence closure dynamic model coupled with an Eulerian photochemical dispersion model. The model used for the simulation of the three-dimensional wind field and the boundary layer structure is developed at the Department of Meteorology, Uppsala University (MIUU) while the calculations of pollutant concentrations were performed using the Urban Airshed Model (UAM).
