Development in Air Pollution Data Collection
in Europe
Hans Eerens
• Introduction
• Establishment European Environmental Agency (EEA)
and its Topic Centres
• A common European Environmental Information
system (EIONET): Air Quality (and Emission)
database through AIRBASE
• Presentation of data: Air Pollution Indicators &
Urban Air Pollution
• Integrated Assessment of Air Pollution & Climate
Change: the next steps
Introduction: Development European
Community Legislation
•
Around 1975: EC establish an air pollution expert working
group: Gathering urban air quality data (mostly SO2), main
focus on QA/QC of measurement methods and site selection
1979: Legal structure EoI (Exchange of Information)
directive: Member states selects a representative number of
measurement stations to EC, EC stores data and yearly
report data
80’s: Directives for SO2 and particles, Lead and NO2
1990: EoI directive ends 10 year period, new EoI needed
countries decide to continue on a voluntary basis,
development of Girafe (Guide of Air Quality Monitoring
Networks in Europe)
Introduction: Development European
Community Legislation
• 1992: Ozone directive
• 1996: Air Quality Framework adopted: general
principles for pollutant directives set
• 1997 new EoI adopted, all measurement stations that
measures a component on the list (.. Components) has
to be reported (in 2001 amended)
• 1998 EU provides countries with DEM, a data exchange
module to convert national data to Airbase, EEA
starts to provide yearly Air pollution reports based on
the data provided.
Introduction: Development European
Community Legislation
• 1999: First Daughter directive adopted (PM10,
So2, No2, lead)
• 2000: Second daughter directive: CO and Benzene
• 2001: Third Daughter directive: Ozone
• 2001: Emission Directive (NEC): SO2, NOx, VOC,
NH3 national emission ceilings for 2010 set
• 2001: CAFE (Clean Air For Europe) is launched: a
thematic strategy is foreseen for 2004
• coming up: Daughter directives for PAH’s and
heavy metals (Ni, Cd, As, Hg)
Introduction: Summary
Monitoring and reporting air emissions
and air quality data is required under
• CLRTAP protocols
• EU legislation
(air quality/emission Directives)
• UNFCCC

ETC/ACC: general information
• Established April 2001 for three
years
• Lead organisation: RIVM, the
Netherlands
• Around 10 -15 man year/year
• Successor of two ETCs: Air Emissions
and Air Quality
• Focus on Air Pollution and Climate
Change
ETC/ACC: A truly European
consortium
Lead organisation: National Institute of Public
Health and Environment (RIVM)
12 Partners:
UBA- Berlin, Germany

ETC/ACC: Vision and Priorities
• Partnership with countries and
stakeholders
• Consolidate monitoring work
• Support Air Pollution and Climate Change
Policies
• Enhance linkages between air emissions
and air quality
• Explore cross-benefits between Climate
Change and Air Pollution policies
