| 21st - 22nd April | Transport & Air Pollution Symposium |
| Location | Rugby, Warwickshire |
| Details | 2009 saw the start of fundamental changes for air quality in the UK, with applications for time extensions for meeting EU limit values, a review of Local Air Quality Management, new guidance, and the start of investigations into the entire UK air quality management regime. With the dust settling the 2010 Spring Workshop will focus on the challenge of delivery, examining what actions the wide range of delivery partners will need to implement – including national and local government, regulators and the private sector. Topical issues covered will include:

| 18th - 19th May | Transport & Air Pollution Symposium |
| Location | Zurich, Switzerland |
| Details | This the 18th symposium, aims to bring together scientists, industry experts and policy makers to discuss key transportation air pollution issues. Abstracts are being called for on the following key topics: • Greenhouse gas and vehicle emission measurement • GHG and vehicle emission modeling • Technologies for low carbon mobility and emission reduction • Air quality/atmospheric chemistry • Emission for off road and non road transport modes • Policies and measures for transport emissions abatement (NO2 derogation) and their impacts. |
| Contact | Abstracts can be submitted here from late October, and registration for the event will commence in February 2010. |
| 9th - 11th June | 13th International Conference on Harmonisation within Atmospheric Dispersion Modelling for Regulatory Purposes |
| Location | Paris, France |
| Details | This series of international conferences is concerned with the improvement of "modelling culture" in Europe and more internationally. Dispersion modelling is widely used for regulatory purposes, both for permits and for assessments, but there is a lack of sufficient mechanisms to make the modelling processes transparent and generally to ensure trust in modelling results. The conferences have a role as a forum where users and decision makers can bring their requirements to the attention of scientists. Abstracts of contributions to the conference are invited and these should be no more than 350 words long. Details of enrollment, appropriate abstract topics and where to send them are available from the conference website at here. |
