Sammendrag
An overview of current in use receptor models is given in the present report as well as information on their characteristics and limitations. The Chemical Mass Balance (CMB), the Principal Component Analysis (PCA), the Quantitative Bias Trajectory Analysis and the Potential Source Contribution Function (PSCF) receptor methods are described briefly in the current document. In addition, information concerning biomass burning and its particulate matter (PM) emission characteristics are reviewed as well as use of receptor models and chemical analysis techniques in identifying the contribution of wood burning on ambient PM concentrations. Finally, recommendations for source apportionment in Oslo area for wood burning sources are presented where two integrated approaches are proposed.
