    Title
    Air Quality in Major European Cities. Part I: Scientific Background Document to Europe's Environment
    Translated Title
    Luchtkwaliteit in Grote Europese Steden. Deel I: Wetenschappelijk Achtergronddocument behorende bij "Europe's Environment"
    Publiekssamenvatting
    In dit rapport is het onderzoek naar Europese stedelijke en lokale luchtverontreiniging samengevat dat door RIVM, NILU en MGO in opdracht van EU is uitgevoerd in het kader van het Europe's Environment-programma. Alleen steden met meer dan 500.000 inwoners (105 in totaal) zijn beschreven. Ongeveer 148 miljoen mensen wonen in deze steden (22% van de totale Europese bevolking). Er is een inventarisatie gemaakt van natuurlijke en door de mens veroorzaakte karakteristieken die de stedlijke luchtkwaliteit bepalen. Stedelijke luchtkwaliteitsgevens zijn vergeleken met WHO-luchtkwaliteitsnormen. Het aantal stedelijke inwoners dat blootgesteld wordt aan overschrijdingen van WHO-luchtkwaliteitsnormen, is geschat. Een schatting is gemaakt van de schade die luchtverontreiniging toebrengt aan gebouwen en monumenten. Er is een inventarisatie gemaakt van gebieden met acute ("hot spot") luchtverontreiningsproblemen buiten de geselecteerde steden.
    This reports documents the research that RIVM, NILU and MGO have conducted into urban and local air pollution in Europe. The research was carried out in the framework of the Europe's Environment programme, commissioned by EU. Only cities with more than 500 000 inhabitants (105 in total) were described. Approximately 148 million people live in these cities (22% of the total European population). An inventory of man-made and natural environmental characteristics determining the air quality situation in cities was made. Ambient urban air pollutant concentrations were compared to their WHO Air Quality Guidelines. The number of people exposed to exceedances of WHO Air Quality Guidelines were estimated. The damage to buildings and cultural heritage caused by air pollution was estimated. An inventory was made of areas with acute local air pollution problems ("hot spots" outside the selected cities).
