Modellierung von verkehrsbedingten Emissionen

What it is about

You model emissions-related environmental impacts of transport and learn to calculate emissions, represent them spatially, and evaluate measures for reduction. In the end you can develop a complete emissions model, collect appropriate data, and present the results scientifically justified.

What you will be able to do

• Knowledge of the environmentally relevant effects of transport
• Knowledge of the main transport emissions, their formation and impact
• Understanding of the causes and effects of global climate change
• Knowledge of the development and use of emission inventories
• Knowledge and application of methodologies for emission assessment
• Ability to model transport emissions
• Ability to independently develop models and collect required data
• Development and evaluation of strategies for emission reduction based on model assessments
• Conveying the investigation results in spoken and written form

What the module consists of

• SeminarDelivery of different modeling approaches and discussion of strategic concepts; practical application in group work on case studies

Teaching method

• VortragExplanation of methods and applications of emission modeling (macroscopic, microscopic, systemic)
• DiskussionDeepening strategic concepts for emission reduction
• Gruppenarbeit / FallstudienApplication of scientifically sound methods and modeling approaches to real cases and critical evaluation
