Good news from Sheffield showing Clean Air Zone is reducing levels of the toxic traffic pollutant nitrogen dioxide.🙂 bit.ly/4cNhysi Time for more action & ambition in tackling transport-related air pollution this side of the Irish sea?

📢We've developed self-assembled monolayer (SAM) functionalised semiconductor sensors to electrically detect short-lived atmospheric radicals in real time. Amy Wolstenholme-Hogg presented this milestone at #GK2024 Presentation: zenodo.org/records/127612… #AirQuality #AtmosphericChem

Some photos from the very productive and enjoyable Gas Kinetics Conference in Leeds. #GK2024 Poster presentation from @mixtlino on our atmospheric simulation chamber facility ( @scienceirel) and talk from John Wenger on piperitone chemistry (EPA Research News).

A new way to visualise #airpollution shows the global inequality in what we breathe but also the dramatic improvement that can come about when governments act. By me for The Guardian on the Air Quality Stripes by Jim McQuaid 🇺🇦 🇪🇺 & @KJPringle h/t Ed Hawkins theguardian.com/environment/ar…

We would all benefit from cleaner air, so make sure you pop along to this unique event in Cork City on Saturday to find out how you can contribute.

It's #WorldOzoneDay and time to celebrate the huge impact that the Montreal Protocol has had on slowing down depletion of the ozone layer The Montreal Protocol is a scientific success story for inspiring similar global action on climate change.

Great work by our postdoc Mixtli on developing a new, highly sensitive detection system for glyoxal in our simulation chamber 👏👏

We deployed the Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitor in Enniscorthy for EPA Ireland #TownAir. First-week data is already in! Together with filter analyses, our Mace Head-CCAPS team and CRAC will investigate aerosol composition, sources, and #AirQuality health impacts.

Great discussions in atmospheric chemistry at UCC yesterday. Fortunate to have Bryan over from Bristol Chemistry for RSC talk, Laurentiu & Cladiu from Romania for experiments, Neil from USA on sabbatical.

This is a great article on the benefits of low cost sensor networks for assessing and managing air pollution. Delighted that the Cork City network we helped set up with Cork City Council is used as a good example of mapping urban air quality.

Purple Air alert in Ennis. Air Quality has been very poor in Ennis, Co. Clare (10 on a scale of 1 to 10) and poor in Tralee, Co. Kerry (8 on the scale).
