On the occasion of the COP 17, the JRC issued the fourth edition of ‘Research at JRC in Support of EU Climate Change Policy Making’ which describes JRC research activities and results that contributed to EC policy initiatives on climate change since 2009. This booklet further represents a wide range of activities that need to be addressed in order to contribute to a sound science base for future policy action. | EN | download |

The report describes the results of scenario studies evaluating the impacts on air quality and climate of air pollution and climate policies, through a coupling of the POLES energy model, the EDGAR database, and the atmospheric chemistry transport model TM5. | EN | download |

L´aria è ciò che noi respiriamo inconsciamente minuto dopo minuto, giorno dopo giorno. L´aria è un elemento necessario per la nostra vita. Comunque, possiamo cominciare la sua storia partendo lontano dalla nostra esperienza quotidiana nel sistema solare. | IT | download |

Air is the stuff we breath, unconsciously, minute after minute, day after day. It is a necessary element for our life. Still, we can make its story start far away from our daily experience. | EN | download |

The Earths climate is the result of two processes: energy arrives in the form of sunlight, which is then distributed by the motion of the atmosphere and oceans. Solar radiation that reaches the Earth at a narrow angle to the poles does not warm the surface much. By contrast, the angle of the sun's rays in relation to the ground is highest close to the equator, in the tropics, so that solar heating is higher. | EN | download |

The
mission of the JRC is to provide customer-driven scientific and
technical support for the conception, development, implementation and
monitoring of EU policies. As a service of the European Commission, the
JRC functions as a reference centre of science and technology for the
Union. Close to the policy-making process, it serves the common
interest of the Member States, while being independent of special
interests, whether private or national.
