OVERVIEW OF EXPOSURE SITES WITH SELECTED PARAMETERS

Disclaimer: This exposure site catalogue is primarily intended to serve as an overview of sites, including both qualitative and quantitative aspects, in order to give an idea of the site characteristics. The quantitative data given below is not to be regarded as a database of corrosion of environmental data allowing quantitative evaluation and comparison of sites as the methodology for obtaining the data is not harmonized and is received as is from site managers without a quality assurance procedure.
