The core objectives of the project are the delivery of a framework and tools designed to be operational long-term in supporting the atmospheric modelling community by providing a flexible, user-friendly system…

The concept of a framework and/or systems approach to air quality study and analysis has many potential benefits. Air quality is scientifically multi-disciplinary; spatially and temporally multi-scale…

While aerosol and gaseous pollutants in the UK are generally well-observed at the surface, and column-averaged information is increasingly available from satellite observations, there remains limited data on the vertical distribution of key pollutants in the UK boundary layer…

In recent years the importance of understanding the impact of poor air quality on our health has moved higher up the political agenda. Efforts to fully understand the relationship between pollution episodes and the onset or deterioration of our health have been stepped up…

Although there is an abundance of regional scale air quality models operating with grid lengths typically at 10km, the same cannot be said of ‘complex’ models operating at higher resolution of around a kilometre…

The meteorological wind and mixing within the urban environment play a key role in air quality as it influences factors such as chemical reactions and residence time (how long pollution remains in an area)…

The standard cooling cycle for refrigerated transport is the Vapour Compression System (VCS). Working fluids are traditionally hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) with relatively high Global Warming Potential (GWP)…

The Cool Run system optimises the handling of food through a novel insulated pod system, which controls the temperature of individual unit loads

Auto-Align is a development project that creates a monitoring system to enable commercial vehicle operators to reduce particulate emissions resulting from tyre and road wear…

The CAGE project (Clean Air Gas Engine) brings together the gas engine development expertise of project…
