Transport emissions of air pollutants Transport emissions of air pollutants The indicator is based on the emission trend assessment of CO, CH 4 , NH 3 , NO x , NMVOCs, SO x and primary particulates. These substances are grouped into acidifying substances (NO x , SO x and NH 3 ), particulates (primary: PM 10, PM 2.5 , secondary: NO x , SO x and NH 3 ) and ozone precursors (CH 4 , CO, NMVOC and NO x ). The assessment is made for the total transport sector.
Emissions of ozone precursors Emissions of ozone precursors This indicator tracks trends since 1990 in anthropogenic emissions of ozone precursor pollutants: nitrogen oxides (NO x ), carbon monoxide (CO), methane (CH 4 ) and non methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs), each weighted by their respective tropospheric ozone-forming potential. The indicator also provides information on the sources of emissions from a number of sectors: Energy industries; road and other transport; industry (processes and energy); other (energy); fugitive emissions; waste; agriculture and other (non energy).
Emissions of acidifying substances (version 2) Emissions of acidifying substances (version 2) The indicator tracks trends since 1990 in anthropogenic emissions of the acidifying pollutants nitrogen oxides (NO x ) , ammonia (NH 3 ), and sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ), each weighted by their respective acidifying potential factor.

The indicator also provides information on the sources of emissions from a number of sectors: energy industries; road and other transport; industry (processes and energy); other (energy); fugitive emissions; waste; agriculture and other (non energy).

Emissions of primary particles and secondary particulate matter precursors Emissions of primary particles and secondary particulate matter precursors This indicator tracks trends in emissions of primary particulate matter less than 10 m m (PM 10 ) and secondary precursors, aggregated according to the particulate formation potential of each precursor considered [1]. The indicator also provides information on changes in emissions from the main source sectors.   [1] de Leeuw, (2002), A set of emission indicators for long-range transboundary air pollution, Environmental Science & Policy, Volume 5, Issue 2, April 2002, Pages 135-145.
