The initial part of the study includes interaction between indoor and outdoor environment, detailed characterisation of indoor pollutants, and their transport indoors. For this purpose advanced monitoring of the air quality has been carried out in four archives in the Czech Republic, representing different outdoor environments: Zlatá Koruna (rural), Třeboň (small town), Teplice (industrial area), and Prague (large city with traffic). The monitoring comprises gaseous pollutants S02, N02, 03, HNC3, NH3 and formic and acetic acids measured both indoors and outdoors using passive dosimeters, and temporal and spatial variation of size-resolved indoor and outdoor particulate matter (PM). For this purpose a simple aerosol spectrometer for wide particle size range suitable for indoor application has been constructed. To determine size-resolved chemical composition of PM, airborne particles have been sampled using two Berner type low pressure impactors and/or PM1 and PM10 Leckel samplers. The c
