Logistics
- Accomodation
We recommend booking a.s.a.p accomodation at vthe following residence:
Residencia Torre Girona
Passeig dels Til•lers, 19
08034 Barcelona
Telephon: (0034) 93 390 43 00
Fax: (0034) 93 205 69 10
E-mail: torregirona@resa.es
Price of a single room:
1 month: 652 Euros (room only, without breakfast, you will have a small kitchen in the rrom) + 75 Euros contract for 2008. Additional fees: 12+35 Euros for water and electricity consumption IMPORTANT: WHEN BOOKING PLEASE MENTION THAT THE BOOKING IS IN THE FRAMEWORK OF 'DAURE' PRICES ARE MUCH REDUCED BECAUSE WE GET THE RATES FOR UPC UNIVERSITY STAFF, OTHERWISE IT IS MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE. 1 day: Single Monday to Friday 62.5 Euros, Week end 51.5 Euros [1]
Location: [2]
At Montseny there is free (very basic) accomodation if you bring sheets and a blanket or a sleeping bag. The rural house has central heating and a fireplace but this can not be used. We will get electric heaters. Telephone, water, power, beds, a basic lab, some offices and a kitchen will be available. We are trying to get internet there but this may be not possible. Cellular phones from Movistar get service there but Vodafone dont.
The main problem at Montseny is the access road (gravel / rock) which can be difficult, especially in case of snow.
Normal cars may have difficulties in travelling across this track.
Closest vilages to Montseny site are: Santa María de Palautordera and Sant Esteve de Palautordera. Restaurants and accomodation are available also overthere. Montseny is 1.5 h driving from Barcelona and 20 min from the above villages.
Issues to deal with
- Eiko Nemitz, email of 26-Nov-2007: "I would be interested to investigate the possibility to measure NH3 and HNO3 also. Modelling of NH4NO3 is still a major uncertainty in the European regional models, including the EMEP model. We could potentially loan a simple rotating wet denuder which fills hourly samples into test tubes for subsequent laboratory analysis for NH4+ and anions (HNO3, HCl, SO2). However, this would require laboratory analysis of 24 x 30 samples + some blanks for each month by some local lab. Is there a chance for the Spanish ministry to support this measurement?"
- Check water supply MSY
- Verifying power at MSY_2
- 2 mobile units fro AQ monitoring booked at local AQ agency, but may be not needed if CSIC's cabins are equipped with instruments for gaseous pollutants (in progress).
- CSIC does not has SMPS systems, solutions for this. May be we may buy DMA-Electrometrefrom TSI UFIPOLNET?????????
- Denuders fro OC for partisol: nned to build 2 of them
- Interesting having Radon measurements from UPC?
- GRANADA UNIVERSITY Column aerosol measurement instrumentation (CIMEL and others) check availability
