There is a growing realisation that the present economic and technological tendencies are unsustainable, in this respect the transport sector came to crossroads, due to its increasing conflicts with the living and built environment, the degradation, loading, pollution impacts. This study surveys the impact and conflict elements between transport and environment, referring to the main three geog...

The exchange of chlorinated organic pollutants between air and vegetation in cold, mountain environments was investigated through the extraction of coniferous vegetation and high-volume air samples collected from the Canadian Rocky Mountains during the summers of 1999 and 2000. Concentrations of several compounds in vegetation increased as temperatures decreased, whereas atmospheric concentrati...

In the operator splitting solution of atmospheric transport-chemistry problems modeling air pollution, a major task is the numerical integration of the stii ODE systems describing the chemical transformations. In this note a numerical comparison is presented between two special purpose solvers developed for this task. Note: This report is one of a series on the development of algorithms for lon...

In the modern world, aviation plays an extremely important role because it allows us to cover thousands of kilometres quickly. Every year, more and new airlines are created, trying win favour passengers. Aviation serves almost all points globe. The main task industry is ensure rapid sustainable development technology infrastructure adapt existing capacities opportunities for their operation. Ai...

Although compliance with the European limit values for air pollutants has been achieved over large parts in Spain, some challenges remain for O3 on the maximum daily 8-hour mean and information limit values, for particulate matter on the PM10 annual and daily limit values and for NO2 on annual and hourly limit values. Transboundary transport of air pollutants has started to be recognized as a m...
