Advanced Respiratory Models for Hazard Assessment of Nanomaterials. Performance of Mono-, Co- and Tricultures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Advanced in vitro models are needed to support next-generation risk assessment (NGRA), moving from hazard assessment based mainly on animal studies to the application of new alternative methods (NAMs). Advanced models must ... -
Grenseområdene Norge-Russland. Luft- og nedbørkvalitet 2021.
(NILU rapport;22/2022, Research report, 2022)Smelteverkene i nordvest-Russland slapp tidligere ut store mengder svoveldioksid (SO2) og tungmetaller. Utslippene påvirket luft- og nedbørkvalitet i grenseområdene. Smelteverket i Nikel stengte ned 23. desember 2020 og ... -
Revidert tiltaksutredning for lokal luftkvalitet i Bergen
(NILU rapport;27/2022, Research report, 2022)Tiltaksutredningen for lokal luftkvalitet i Bergen med handlings- og beredskapsplan skal bidra til at forurensningsnivået holder seg innenfor kravene i forurensningsforskriften. Tiltaksutredningen omfatter en kartlegging ... -
Do cytotoxicity and cell death cause false positive results in the in vitro comet assay?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The comet assay is used to measure DNA damage induced by chemical and physical agents. High concentrations of test agents may cause cytotoxicity or cell death, which may give rise to false positive results in the comet ... -
Decoupling Emission Reductions and Trade-Offs of Policies in Norway Based on a Bottom-Up Traffic Emission Model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The way Norway is spearheading electrification in the transport sector is of global interest. In this study, we used the Norwegian Emissions from Road Vehicle Exhaust (NERVE) model, a bottom-up high-resolution traffic ... -
Evaluation and Global-Scale Observation of Nitrous Oxide from IASI on Metop-A
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a greenhouse gas difficult to estimate by satellite because of its weak spectral signature in the infra-red band and its low variability in the troposphere. Nevertheless, this study presents the ... -
Re-evaluation and Homogenization of Aerosol Optical Depth Observations in Svalbard (ReHearsol). RCN Project No: 311250/E40 - ReHearsol Final Report
(NILU report;3/2022, Research report, 2022)The aim of this project was to collect, integrate and analyse observations of climate-relevant aerosol parameters (aerosol optical depth (AOD), Ångstrøm exponent (AE), black carbon (BC)) in and around Svalbard. These ... -
