Abstract. The Mediterranean near-real-time multi-sensor processing chain has been set up and is operational in the framework of Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS). This work describes main steps operationally performed to enable single ocean colour sensors enter applied Sea by Ocean Colour Thematic Assembly Centre within CMEMS. Here, takes care reducing inter-sensor bias before data from different are merged together. A basin-scale situ bio-optical dataset used both...
Abstract. The International Halocarbons in Air Comparison Experiment (IHALACE) was conducted to document relationships between calibration scales among various laboratories that measure atmospheric greenhouse and ozone depleting gases. This study included trace gases such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), well nitrous oxide, methane, sulfur hexafluoride, very short-lived halocompounds, carbonyl sulfide. Many of these are present the...
Fast monitoring of water quality is a fundamental part environmental management and protection, in particular, the possibility qualitatively quantitatively determining its contamination at levels that are dangerous for human health, fauna flora. Among techniques currently available, Raman spectroscopy variant, Surface-Enhanced Spectroscopy (SERS), have several advantages, including no need sample preparation, quick easy operation ability to operate on field. This article describes...
Air trajectory calculations are commonly found in a variety of atmospheric analyses. However, most reported research usually focuses upon the transport pollutants via routes and not on itself. This paper explores major areas which air analyses applied with an effort to gain deeper insights into key points highlight necessity such Ranging from meteorological applications their links living beings, become important tool especially when alternative procedures do seem possible. review covers...
Abstract The 1,1,1,2‐tetrafluoroethane (HFC‐134a), an important alternative to CFC‐12 in accordance with the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete Ozone Layer, is a high global warming potential greenhouse gas. Here we evaluate variations and regional HFC‐134a emissions emission trends, from 1995 2010, at relatively spatial temporal (3.75° longitude × 2.5° latitude 8 day) resolution, using surface measurements. Our results show progressive increase of 19 ± 2 Gg/yr 167 5 both slowdown...
HCFC‒22 (CHClF 2 , chlorodifluoromethane) is an ozone‒depleting substance, the consumption of which controlled under Montreal Protocol. Within a Bayesian inversion framework, we use measurements atmospheric concentrations to constrain estimates emissions, at grid point 3.75°×2.5° and 8 day resolution, from January 1995 December 2010. Starting new gridded bottom‒up inventory then optimized, our method shows continuously rising global 182±11 Gg in maximum 410±9 2009. This mainly due increase...
Economically motivated adulterations of food, in general, and spices, particular, are an emerging threat to world health. Reliable techniques for the rapid screening counterfeited ingredients supply chain need further development. Building on experience gained with CO2 lasers, Diagnostic Metrology Laboratory ENEA realized a compact user-friendly photoacoustic laser system food fraud detection, based quantum cascade laser. The sensor has been challenged saffron adulteration. Multivariate data...

This work describes the main processing steps operationally performed to enable single ocean colour sensors enter multi-sensor chain for Mediterranean Sea of Ocean Colour Thematic Assembling Centre. Here, takes care reducing inter-sensor bias before data from different are merged together. The basin-scale in situ bio-optical dataset is used both fine-tuning algorithms retrieval phytoplankton chlorophyll and attenuation coefficient light, Kd, assess uncertainty associated with them....
World health is increasingly threatened by the growing number of spice-related food hazards. Further development reliable methods for rapid, non-targeted identification counterfeit ingredients within supply chain needed. ENEA has developed a portable, user-friendly photoacoustic laser system fraud detection, based on quantum cascade and multivariate calibration. Following study authenticity saffron, instrument was challenged with more elusive adulterant, olive leaves in oregano. The results...

Abstract. The International Halocarbons in Air Comparison Experiment (IHALACE) was conducted to document relationships between calibration scales among various laboratories that measure atmospheric greenhouse and ozone depleting gases. Six stainless steel cylinders containing natural modified air samples were circulated 19 laboratories. Results from this experiment reveal relatively good agreement commonly used for a number of trace gases present the unpolluted atmosphere at pmol mol−1...
