Forum for Air Quality Modelling
The main aim of the Forum for AIR quality MODelling (FAIRMODE) is to bring together air quality modellers and users in order to promote and support the harmonised use of modelling practices for the assessment of air quality by EU member countries.
Within this scope, a main aspect of the Forum will focus on scientific research that will establish improved and validated modelling tools on which decision making will be based.
The forum is a joint response action of the European Environment Agency (EEA) and the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) towards the new Air Quality Directive.
Latest news
3rd FAIRMODE Plenary meeting will take place from 16
