Is that possible? Thanks, Elisabeth -----Original Message----- From: SOCAAR-l: Southern Ontario Centre for Atmospheric Aerosol Research [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Krystal Godri Pollitt Sent: February 25, 2014 9:04 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: SOCAAR Seminar - March 5, 3pm SOCAAR is pleased to announce the next seminar in our 2013-2014 seminar series. Near-road measurement of traffic-related pollutants Dr. Cheol-Heon Jeong Sr. Research Associate Jon Wang Ph.D. Student Dept. of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry University of Toronto Elevated concentrations of traffic-related air pollutants can arise near major roadways. As a result, living and spending significant time near major roadways has been identified as a risk factor for a range of adverse health outcomes; the health of up to 10 million Canadians may be at risk. A nationwide near roadway monitoring study has been initiated to better understand the exposure of Canadians to traffic related pollution. Data from this study will also help resolve the amount of air pollution arising from Canada's vehicle fleets, by evaluating emissions from individual vehicles and the resulting diurnal and weekend/weekday temporal patterns of traffic-related pollutants. In this seminar, the near-road monitoring network study will be introduced. Initial measurements of spatial gradients and temporal variations of traffic-related pollutants and fuel-based emission factors from individual vehicles will be presented. March 5, 2014, 3 - 4 pm Wallberg Building, 200 College Street, Room 407 The seminar will be recorded and posted on the SOCAAR website: www.socaar.utoronto.ca
