Hi Everyone, SOCAAR is pleased to announced our First Seminar for 2023 (ONLINE ONLY). Dr. Fulvio Amato Tenured Researcher at IDAEA-CSIC Spanish Research Council Title: Non-exhaust emissions from road traffic Abstract: While the overall amount of particulate matter from road traffic has decreased in past decades thanks to increasingly stringent standards regulating exhaust emissions, emerging evidence shows that particulate matter is also emitted from the wearing down of tyres, brakes, and road surfaces, and from the resuspension of road dust. Particulate matter from these "non-exhaust" sources is less well-understood than particulate matter from exhaust emissions, and the policy options to address them are consequently less well-explored. Importantly, non-exhaust particulate matter emissions will not be addressed by increasing the stringency of existing emissions standards. As a result, almost all particulate matter from road traffic is expected to come from non-exhaust emission sources in future years. Given the significant negative impacts of particulate matter on public health, is incumbent on policymakers to consider how to manage these emissions. This seminar synthesizes the state of knowledge on the nature, causes and consequences of non-exhaust particulate emissions from tyre, brake, and road wear as well as road dust resuspension, as well as how particulate matter emissions from non-exhaust sources will likely evolve in future years and identifies existing technological and policy measures to mitigate these emissions. ________________________________________________________________________________ Microsoft Teams meeting Join on your computer, mobile app or room device Click here to join the meeting<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_NjZkMDE3NWQtZWFiYi00ZDJmLWE5MmItODNlMjY2MTVhYjJl%40thread.v2/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%2278aac226-2f03-4b4d-9037-b46d56c55210%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%2276a2f469-c5cc-446a-8132-c4bf6f5856ed%22%7d> Meeting ID: 262 813 290 396 Passcode: ipk85H Download Teams<https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/download-app> | Join on the web<https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-teams/join-a-meeting> Or call in (audio only) +1 647-794-1609,,192392661#<tel:+16477941609,,192392661#> Canada, Toronto Phone Conference ID: 192 392 661# Find a local number<https://dialin.teams.microsoft.com/d82c5eb5-d575-428c-bac3-869ecf09d547?id=192392661> | Reset PIN<https://dialin.teams.microsoft.com/usp/pstnconferencing> Learn More<https://aka.ms/JoinTeamsMeeting> | Meeting options<https://teams.microsoft.com/meetingOptions/?organizerId=76a2f469-c5cc-446a-8132-c4bf6f5856ed&tenantId=78aac226-2f03-4b4d-9037-b46d56c55210&[log in to unmask]&messageId=0&language=en-US> ________________________________________________________________________________ Natalie Leung Financial and Administrative Assistant | Southern Ontario Centre for Atmospheric Aerosol Research, University of Toronto www.socaar.utoronto.ca 200 College Street, Toronto, ON, Canada, M5S 3E5 * 416 978 5932 | * [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>
