Institute of Physics, University of Belgrade, Serbia- DREAM ERATOSTHENES Centre of Excellence

Activities of the Environmental Physics Laboratory include fundamental and applied research related to atmospheric processes, transport and transformation of pollutants (aerosols and gaseous species) and their impact on the environment and human health. Special interest is focused to the following: volatile organic compounds (VOC), inorganic gaseous pollutants (tropospheric O3, SO2, NOx, NO, NO2 and CO), suspended particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) and soot concentration and meteorological parameter indoor and outdoor measurements multiphase environmental and chamber experiment sample analyses particulate matter, vegetation, soil and atmospheric bulk deposition chemical composition analysis including trace metals, constituent ions, organic/elemental carbon and PAH plant biomonitoring (tree leaves, moss) of the trace elements atmospheric deposition natural Pb isotopes in deciduous tree leaves for atmospheric Pb source identification active moss biomonitoring of trace element distribution active ground-based atmospheric aerosol laser remote sensing environmental data analysis (statistical, spatio-temporal, multivariate, multifractal, receptor and hybrid receptor, health and mortality risk assessment) environmental methods and models development DREAM model predictions of ice nucleation due to mineral dust and dust forecast at 17UTC each day are available. Forecast is part of the SDS-WAS mission.
