Dear CiGas Users,
As in previous years, the annual QA/QC workshop focusing on VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) and NOx (Nitrogen Oxides) data submission to the EBAS database was held online from 7 to 9 April 2025. Participants reviewed the data 2024 and shared insights through station-specific presentations.
All contributions and materials from the event are available for download below.
