The subject of air pol- tion was from the start, one of the priority problems under study within the fra- work of various pilot studies undertaken by this committee. The organization of a periodic conference dealing with air pollution modeling and its application has become one of the main activities within the pilot study relating to air pollution. The first five international conferences were organized by the United States as the pilot country; the second five by the Federal Republic of Germany; the third five by Belgium; the next four by The Netherlands; and the next five by Denmark; and with this one, the last three by Portugal. th This volume contains the papers and posters presented at the 27 NATO/CCMS International Technical Meeting on Air Pollution Modeling and Its Application held in Banff, Canada, 24-29 October 2004. The key topics at this ITM included: Role of Atmospheric Models in Air Pollution Policy and Abatement Strategies; Integrated Regional Modeling; Effects of Climate Change on Air Quality; Aerosols as Atmospheric Contaminants; New Developments; and Model Assessment and Verification. 104 participants from North and South America, Europe, Africa and Asia attended th the 27 ITM. The conference was jointly organized by the University of Aveiro, Portugal (Pilot Country) and by The University of Calgary, Canada (Host Country). A total of 74 oral and 22 poster papers were presented during the conference Notes "This volume contains the papers and posters presented at the 27th NATO/CCMS International technical Meeting on Air Pollution Modeling and Its Application held in Banff, Canada, 24-29 October 2004"--Page v Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Print version record Subject Air -- Pollution -- Mathematical models -- Congresses Atmospheric diffusion -- Mathematical models -- Congresses Air -- Pollution -- Meteorological aspects -- Mathematical models -- Congresses TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING -- Environmental -- Pollution Control.
