The correct option is D Amount of ozone
The MERLIN Project is part of the Cluster of European Air Quality Research (CLEAR). MERLIN ('M'ulti-Pollutant Multi-Effect Modeling of 'E'uropean Ai'R' Pollution Contro'L' Strategies - an 'IN'tegrated approach). MERLIN is a cost-benefit-analysis computer-based model system that can be used to determine the bundle of air pollution control measures that is capable of achieving compliance with air quality limit and target values (for emission, concentrations and deposition) for specific pollutants at least-costs. This aims at a combined reduction of ozone precursor emissions, compliance with limit values of particulate matter (namely PM10) as well as the emission targets of the Kyoto Protocol.
