ERNO project will be studying emissions of reactive nitrogen gases (HONO and NO) from northern peatlands under changing climate

A new study (Principal Investigator Marja Maljanen, UEF) funded by The Academy of Finland (2022-2026) is focusing on emissions of reactive nitrogen gases (HONO and NO) from northern peatlands under changing climate (acronym ERNO). Both gases play a significant role in the atmospheric chemistry, HONO as a source of cleaning agent hydroxyl radical and NO […]

ACCC-I4 Seminaarisarja: Ilmastoneutraalit ja -kestävät kaupungit

Ilmastonmuutos on aikamme suurimpia haasteita. Sen ratkaisemiseksi meidän on sekä vähennettävä päästöjä että sopeuduttava niihin muutoksiin, joita ei voida enää estää. Lisäksi uudet ilmanlaatua koskevat määräykset asettavat erittäin korkeat vaatimukset paikallisten ilman epäpuhtauksien vähentämiselle. YK:n mukaan 68 prosenttia maailman väestöstä asuu kaupungeissa, ja kaupungistumisen vuoksi osuuden ennustetaan kasvavan tulevaisuu­des­sa. Siksi suuri osa hillitsemis- ja sopeutumistyöstä

Towards monitoring carbon emission reductions with satellites

In a mere decade, satellites have revolutionised our ability to monitor the global environment, its hazards, and abrupt changes. Now this quickly evolving field is preparing to support the goals of the Paris Agreement by an independent monitoring and verification system that uses satellite observations to quantify national greenhouse gas emission reductions. The European Union’s

The SCIPPER project

SCIPPER (Shipping Contributions to Inland Pollution Push for the Enforcement of Regulations) is a European project which aims at deploying state-of-art and next-generation measurement techniques to monitor emissions of vessels under their normal operation. While vessels exhibit comparatively low fuel consumption per unit of cargo-distance, they produce high specific emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulphur
