5. Questions and Answers
S. Andreani-Aksoyoglu:
We had very high PM concentrations in January-
February 2006 as you had in Poland. Is it possible that some part of PM came
from Poland? Did you look at some trajectories?
Answer:
No, we did not look at trajectories. However, this high winter PM
concentrations in Poland were mainly due to extremely low air temperatures
(up to −27°C) which had caused intensive heating of houses by burning coal
(as well as wastes probably) in domestic sector. Thus, as it was “low emission”
it is almost impossible that this emission was transported to Switzerland.
