Modelling PCB-153 in northern ecosystems across time, space, and species using the nested exposure model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)There is concern over possible effects on ecosystems and humans from exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and chemicals with similar properties. The main objective of this study was to develop, evaluate, and ... -
Increased contribution of biomass burning to haze events in Shanghai since China’s clean air actions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)High levels of East Asian black carbon (BC) aerosols affect ecological and environmental sustainability and contribute to climate warming. Nevertheless, the BC sources in China, after implementing clean air actions from ... -
Added value of the emissions fractions approach when assessing a chemical's potential for adverse effects as a result of long-range transport
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)It is of considerable interest to identify chemicals which may represent a hazard and risk to environmental and human health in remote areas. The OECD POV and LRTP Screening Tool (“The Tool”) for assessing chemicals for ... -
A regional modelling study of halogen chemistry within a volcanic plume of Mt Etna's Christmas 2018 eruption
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Volcanoes are known to be important emitters of atmospheric gases and aerosols, which for certain volcanoes can include halogen gases and in particular HBr. HBr emitted in this way can undergo rapid atmospheric oxidation ... -
Regionally sourced bioaerosols drive high-temperature ice nucleating particles in the Arctic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Primary biological aerosol particles (PBAP) play an important role in the climate system, facilitating the formation of ice within clouds, consequently PBAP may be important in understanding the rapidly changing Arctic. ... -

Aerosol Optical Properties and Type Retrieval via Machine Learning and an All-Sky Imager
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This study investigates the applicability of using the sky information from an all-sky imager (ASI) to retrieve aerosol optical properties and type. Sky information from the ASI, in terms of Red-Green-Blue (RGB) channels ... -
Impact of 2020 COVID-19 lockdowns on particulate air pollution across Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)To fight against the first wave of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in 2020, lockdown measures were implemented in most European countries. These lockdowns had well-documented effects on human mobility. We assessed the ... -

Satellite remote sensing of Arctic fires - a literature and data review
(NILU report;29/2022, Research report, 2023)The main aim of this report is to prepare for the proposed SGA #17 of the Caroline Herschel Framework Partnership Agreement on Copernicus User Uptake Work Programme 2020 named “Arctic peat- and forest-fire information ... -
Investigating the Sensitivity of Low-Cost Sensors in Measuring Particle Number Concentrations across Diverse Atmospheric Conditions in Greece and Spain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Low-cost sensors (LCSs) for particulate matter (PM) concentrations have attracted the interest of researchers, supplementing their efforts to quantify PM in higher spatiotemporal resolution. The precision of PM mass ... -
Legacy perfluoroalkyl acids and their oxidizable precursors in plasma samples of Norwegian women
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Humans are exposed to perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAA) mainly through direct pathways, such as diet and drinking water, but indirect exposure also occurs when PFAA precursors break down to form legacy PFAA. Exposure to PFAA ... -
Modelling of the deterioration and conservation costs of polychrome painted wood in two Norwegian medieval stone churches
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)EnvCul (https://envcul.nilu.no/) modelling was performed of condition changes of painted wooden panels and related conservation cost in indoor climate and object response scenarios in two Norwegian Medieval stone churches: ... -
NORMAN guidance on suspect and non-target screening in environmental monitoring
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Increasing production and use of chemicals and awareness of their impact on ecosystems and humans has led to large interest for broadening the knowledge on the chemical status of the environment and human health by suspect ... -
