The Po Valley is one of the most important hot spots in Europe for air pollution. Morphological features and anthropogenic pressures lead to frequent breaching of air quality standards and to high-pollution episodes in an ~46 × 103-km2-wide alluvial lowland. Therefore, it is increasingly important to study the air quality in a wide geographical scale to better implement possible and ...

Daytime PM 10, PM 2.5 and black smoke concentrations were measured simultaneously near a busy road and at a background location in two cities in the Netherlands. The elemental composition of the particles was analyzed with inductively coupled plasma (ICP). PM 10 and PM 2.5 concentrations at the street site were on average 1.3 times higher than the background concentrations.
