12. Recommendations on deriving meteorological parameters for application to urban air pollution estimates  Mixing height for urban background concentrations, atmospheric stability for dispersion  Street and urban background wind, for dispersion within above streets  Urban episodes, availability of tools, potential developments, uncertainty  Inventory of urban meteorological sites, use of data, recommendations for siting, local meteorological data and corrections, choice site location.
