Given the complexity of sources, the abundance of relevant data (e.g.... Read More about Utilising Openair to support multi-stakeholder engagement and the resolution of air quality issues.
Air quality action planning: why do barriers to remediation in local air quality management remain? (2013)
Journal Article
UK local air quality action planning has failed to remediate exceedances of air quality targets, particularly for nitrogen dioxide, which are widespread and persistent a decade after the first local action plans were drafted. This paper is relevant t... Read More about Air quality action planning: why do barriers to remediation in local air quality management remain?.
Exploring a city's potential low carbon futures using Delphi methods: Some preliminary findings (2012)
Journal Article
This paper describes a Delphi methodology to generate a number of broadly consensual low carbon scenarios for 2050. This approach to 'creating' the future, rather than predicting, is useful when dealing with profound and uncertain change over a long...
