This report explores the linkages between air quality and climate change from a European perspective in order to assist the European Environment Agency (EEA) in approaching the issues of air quality and climate change in an integrated way. This report addresses atmospheric linkages, linkages of impacts and possible synergies in emission reductions and emission control strategies. Furthermore, it assesses the relevance and signifi cance of linkages for diff erent control options and defi nes priority issues for integrated assessment. Finally it proposes preliminary indicators that could be used by the EEA to approach and report on linkages between air quality and climate change in a structured manner.
