Air Quality Forecast Service for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany

A service for forecasting ambient atmospheric pollutants has been implemented at the German Remote Sensing Data Center of the German Aerospace Center DLR-DFD, and is made available via WDC-RSAT.

This Service is based on the European Air Pollution Dispersion (EURAD) model system developed at the Rhenish Institute for Environmental Research (RIU) at the University of Cologne. EURAD simulates the physical, chemical and dynamical processes which control emission, production, transport and deposition of atmospheric trace species.
