European air quality maps of ozone and PM10 for 2008 and their uncertainty analysis ETC/ACC Technical Paper 2010/10

his paper provides an update of the European air quality concentrations of selected pollutants, their exceedance probability and population exposure estimates for another consecutive year, 2008. The analysis is based on interpolation of annual statistics of the 2008 observational data reported by EEA Member countries in 2009 and stored in AirBase . The paper presents the mapping results and includes an uncertainty analysis of the interpolated maps, building upon the latest methodological developments.
