Description

The main aims of the project are to:

- considerably improve spatial resolution and quality of the urban atmospheric environment assessment on the basis of state-of-the-art modeling, observation and data analysis technologies;

- improve and validate advanced modelling tools with focus on modelling of the turbulent flow in complex urban environment;

- improve methods for combination of observational and model data;

- compare environmental effects of the selected impactful urban policy measures in Prague and Bergen;

- equip public authorities with a set of tools to support urban governance: focus on air quality and thermal comfort.

The specific results of the project are described in section Deliverables.
