Assessing the effect of airport operations on air quality and noise in nearby communities

About

Opens for applications on 2026-12-15. A European Commission call for proposals. Expected Outcome: Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes: Assessment of the impact of airport operations on air quality and water bodies (including biodiversity) through air quality measurements and monitoring at different spots in and around the airports as well as through in vitro testing and/or remote sensing for water quality in airports close to water bodies Contributing to the delivery of better emission factors for emissions inventories and projections (including EMEP), especially for species and fuel mixtures for which little knowledge exists today in order to support local, regional, national and international emissions reduction plans (e.g. Noise Plans, Air Quality Roadmaps, Air Quality Plans, national Air Pollution Control Programmes, as mentioned in EU acquis) by providing real-world emission information and measuring the actual impact of control measures and strategies. Recommendations for improved measurement certification and testing to better cover real world situations. Develop a methodology to assess the health impact (both the nature, seriousness and number of people at risk) of the measured pollutants and noise in ai
