Discussion and summary of morning presentations

 

Relevant topics which should be discussed, clarified:

  • General understanding concerning the importance of traffic produced turbulence for street level pollution
  • Connection of results achieved so far by the different teams
  • Appropriate scaling concepts: Human cars or monster traffic?
  • Definition of the overall TRAPOS contribution to the advancement of the subject
