Models of the Impact of Road Transport in Air Quality Management System
Journal Title: Logistics and Transport - Year 2013, Vol 20, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper presents categorization of models used in environmental monitoring taking into account the factors of emissions into the air, and the impact of road transport emissions. The information collected was related to the share of road transport in the creation of the emission in the Lodz region, analyzed as a case study. Types of substances were classified according to their harmfulness and intensity derived from traffic sources. Particular attention has been given to the issue of dispersion models used in environmental monitoring, the practice of their use and suitability for road transport.
