Abstract: ''The ultimate goal of air quality management is to ensure that air pollution concentrations do not exceed the defined target levels, and that human health and the environment are protected. This book presents the methodological development for integrated air quality management, which employs both technical and policy tools to achieve the air quality goals. These tools are further illustrated by experiences drawn from the Asian region studies. Technical information and policy recommendations presented include the outcomes of several multi-year regional air quality research programs. The book is structured to combine both fundamental information and advanced knowledge dealing with subjects of integrated air quality management, and is intended for an audience of a wide range of backgrounds including undergraduate and graduate level students, academic researchers and policy makers''
