Class Grant and Contribution Program to Support Research, Awareness and Learning in Space Science and Technology
FY 2016-17 · 2017-03-30
Summary
The project name is ""Modes of Pollution Transport from North America to Nova Scotia and Beyond"". This project aims to quantify the long-term variability of different pollution sources (local, regional and continental) and how they affect air quality in Nova Scotia and other Canadian locations. The study will assess the impacts of weather on air pollution events. In doing so, it will inform policy regarding jurisdictional (provincial, federal, trans-boundary) pollutant reduction.

Description (French)
Le projet s'intitule ""Modes de déplacement de la pollution de l'Amérique du Nord à la Nouvelle-Écosse et au-delà"". Ce projet vise à quantifier la variabilité à long terme des diverses sources de pollution (locales, régionales et continentales) ainsi que leur incidence sur la qualité de l'air en Nouvelle-Écosse et ailleurs au Canada. L'équipe étudiera les effets des conditions météorologiques sur différents épisodes de pollution. Elle permettra ainsi d'éclairer les orientations stratégiques à divers ordres de gouvernement (provincial, fédéral, transfrontalier) quant à la réduction des polluants.
