Abstract
RI-URBANS aims to demonstrate how Service Tools (STs) from atmospheric Research Infrastructures (RIs) can be adapted and
enhanced to better address the challenges and societal needs concerning air quality (AQ) in European cities and industrial hotspots.
RI-URBANS responds to urgent needs to substantially reduce air pollution across EU by providing enhanced AQ observations in
support of advanced AQ policy assessment. We develop and enhance synergies between AQ Monitoring Networks (AQMNs) and RIs in
the atmospheric domain and combine advanced science knowledge and innovative technologies to develop pilot STs. These will
enhance the AQMNs capacity to evaluate, predict and support policies for abating urban air pollution. RI-URBANS deploys tools and
information systems in the hands of citizens and communities to support decision-making by AQ managers and regulators. The focus
is on ambient nanoparticles and atmospheric particulate matter, their sizes, constituents, source contributions and gaseous
precursors.
