EMEP was founded by UNECE [United Nations Economic Commission for Europe], WMO [World Meteorological Organization] and UNEP [United Nations Environment Programme] in 1977. In 1983 it became a project under the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air pollution, itself under the auspices of the ECE Protection of the Environment framework. It is one of two regional networks, the other in North America, where a denser network of precipitation monitoring stations has been established to evaluate SO2 and NOX emissions and transport, in particular. 2, record 5, English, - Co%2Doperative%20Programme%20for%20Monitoring%20and%20Evaluation%20of%20the%20Long%2Drange%20Transmission%20of%20Air%20Pollutants%20in%20Europe
