Sažetak
This work presents an analysis of the impact of ship emissions to atmospheric particle concentrations (PM) in four important port- cities (Patras Greece, Brindisi and Venice Italy, and Rijeka Croatia) of the Adriatic/ Ionian area. The study was performed within the POSEIDON project (Pollution monitoring of ship emissions: an integrated approach for harbours of the Adriatic basin, funded within the MED Programme 2007-2013). The study uses an integrated approach using emission inventories, dispersion modelling and measurements taken at high temporal resolution (1 min) and low temporal resolution for chemical characterization of PM. The emission inventories of the four port-cities show that shipscontribute between 11.7% and 31.0% of the total PM emissions being a source locally comparable with road traffic (ranging between 11.8% and 26.6%). The source apportionment using the receptor model PMF showed an oil combustion source (that includes ship emissions), characterized by V and Ni, in Brindisi, Venice and Rijeka with V/Ni ratio ranging between 1.4 and 4.2 indicating local differences in chemical profiles of the emissions.The V concentrations were used to evaluate the contributions of primary ship emissions to PM that resulted between 1.3% and 2.8%
