  1. Network for the support of European Policies on Air Pollution An EU-funded project under FP5

  2. Main Objective To provide the European Commission – in particular CAFE – with scientific analyses and assessments

  3. Basic facts • Duration 24 months (Dec. 2002 - Nov. 2004) • Close collaboration with DG Research and CAFE • Shadow the CAFE process • Make use of scientific research in Europe, in particular EU funded projects • Open process

  4. Opportunity for CAFE? • NEPAP offers an opportunity for CAFE to broaden the range of science input to the process • The NEPAP consortium can provide independent review of the CAFE work

  5. NEPAP resources • Experience in directed assessment work (NEGTAP, EUROTRAC, SCOPE, EMEP, IGBP, IPCC, WMO etc.) • Close links to DG Research activities • Close links with national and international policy processes (EU directives, UNECE) • Broad competence (atmospheric chemistry, monitoring and modelling, ecosystem effects, human exposure, integrated assessments)

  6. Principal participants • Dick Derwent, Met Office, UK • Jan Willem Erisman, ECN, NL • David Fowler, IEH, UK • Peringe Grennfelt, IVL, SE • Oystein Hov, NILU, NO • Mihalis Lazarides, GR • Joakim Langner, SMHI, SE

  7. Six workpackages: 1. Impact from sources outside Europe 2. Non-linearities 3. Nitrogen - deposition and effects 4. Characterisation of particles 5. Uncertainties in source - receptor relationships 6. Overall assessment
