Making air quality indices comparable – assessment of 10 years of air pollutant levels in western Europe
Listed in DataCite
To address the incomparability of the large number of existing air quality indices, we propose a new normalization method that is suited to directly compare air quality indices based on the common European World Health Organization (WHO) air quality guidelines for NO 2 , O 3 , and PM 10 .
Description
Using this method, we compared three air quality indices based on the European guidelines, related them to another air quality index based on the relative risk concept, and used them to assess the air quality and its trends in northwest central Europe.
The average air quality in the area of investigation is below the recommended European guidelines. The majority of index values exceeding this threshold are caused by PM 10 , which is also, in most cases, responsible for the degrading trends in air quality. Eleven out of 29 stations tested showed significant trends, of which eight indicated trends towards better air quality.
