Project Abstract

Building on what was achieved during the past period of the project, the extension period should be used for consolidating the work done, continuing ongoing projects, and taking on some new tasks that arose from the project. Consolidating the work done includes the operation of the sites, maintenance, and trouble shooting as the need arises, as well as passing on the site maintenance to a suitable organisation.Continuation of projects includes the support/facilitating of the mercury measurements at Mace Head, the POP measurements at Malin Head, and the project on ozone depleting substances (ODS) at Carnsore Point. Also, the participation in EMEP/TFMM activities and reporting on these will be continued.
