This study aimed to assess whether building materials,
furniture, and user equipment are sources of pollution
that would influence the need for ventilation. Between
2017-2020, measurements were taken in four regular
classrooms in a low emitting school and four modular
classrooms in a prefabricated school. Weekly passive
sampling of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and
aldehydes were carried out in the classrooms under
the following four conditions: 1) emptied, 2) furnished,
3) with furniture and user equipment, and 4) during
normal use. For the first three conditions, the
classrooms were measured with either no ventilation
or "low" airflow rates. Total VOC (TVOC)
concentrations were up to ten times higher in the
unventilated classroom at the prefabricated school
compared to classrooms at the low emitting school
(<450 µg/m3 for conditions 1-2). Our results show the
importance of selecting low emitting building
materials and proper ventilation.

Adequate infrastructure for citizen science is constantly growing and has become increasingly important in providing support to citizen science activities, both nationally and internationally. Many types of citizen science infrastructures exist, with different functionalities. This chapter focuses on current citizen science platforms. The platforms addressed in this chapter are those which display citizen science data and information, provide good practical examples and toolkits, collect relevant scientific outcomes, and are accessible to different stakeholders, ranging from interested citizens to scientific institutions to authorities, politicians, and public media. We present current citizen science platforms in Europe and associated (inter)national citizen science networks and discuss how these platforms have become increasingly vital within citizen science. Based on these examples, we elaborate on challenges for citizen science platforms, such as establishing and financing platforms, designing user interfaces, maintaining platforms, promoting the usage of platforms, etc. We conclude with an outlook into potential development needs of citizen science platforms in the future.
