Speaker Prof. Ana Isabel Miranda Vice Director Department of Environment and Planning University of Aveiro Abstract Air pollution, both indoors and outdoors, is a major environmental health problem affecting everyone in developed and developing countries alike. The World Health Organization associates to air pollution approximately 3 million premature deaths worldwide per year. This seminar addresses the effects of air pollution on human health through a chain of events, which start with emissions to the air and ends with the health effect. The dispersion and chemical transformation of air pollutants, the human exposure and the inhaled dose are also part of this chain. Several examples covering different scales will be presented during the seminar. Biography Professor Ana Isabel Miranda is the ...

Speaker Prof. Ana Isabel Miranda Vice Director Department of Environment and Planning University of Aveiro Abstract Air quality modeling allows obtaining temporal 3D fields of air pollutants in the air. Nowadays the use of models to support air quality assessment and planning is becoming a common practice with clear benefits. There are different types of models based on different mathematical approaches and dealing with different applications. This seminar aims to highlight this variety of models taking into consideration the different scales of application, from the local to the global scale. Examples of modeling studies will be provided and discussed.
