He will also explore the challenges surrounding higher public c onfidence in AQ monitoring and the corollary lack of public confidence in AQ modelling\, and the need to undertake both\, each to support the other\ ; forthcoming issues of personal\, mobile AQ monitors and AQ apps and poss ible AQ model linkages\; and the importance of further development and exp ression of cumulative health risk assessments (re: carcinogens\, toxics an d CACs) based on AQ modelled assessments.\nAmong the more notable results of the City's AQ modelling are the predicted concentration levels of vehic le emissions along highway corridors and in dense downtown urban canyon ar eas. For remedial actions or for advocacies to be accepted and successful ly addressed requires greater confidence in our input traffic data (by loc ation\, volume\, type and speed etc) which is central to our modeling. We are in the process of improving our field data acquisition but we will als o need supporting AQ monitoring that specifically addresses the variabilit y of concentrations with distance from road center lines and verifies or d isproves our model results.\n\n\n\nIf you are unable to join us for the se minar in person\, we will be broadcasting the presentations live during th e seminar using GoToMeeting software.
