Multi-decadal surface ozone trends at globally distributed remote locations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Extracting globally representative trend information from lower tropospheric ozone observations is extremely difficult due to the highly variable distribution and interannual variability of ozone, and the ongoing shift of ... -
Evaluation of climate model aerosol trends with ground-based observations over the last 2 decades – an AeroCom and CMIP6 analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This study presents a multiparameter analysis of aerosol trends over the last 2 decades at regional and global scales. Regional time series have been computed for a set of nine optical, chemical-composition and mass aerosol ... -
Cadmium pollution from zinc‐smelters up to four‐fold higher than expected in western Europe in the 1980s as revealed by alpine ice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Estimates of past emission inventories suggest that toxic heavy metal pollution in Europe was highest in the mid‐1970s for lead and in the mid‐1960s for cadmium, but these previous estimates have not been compared to ... -
Common eider and herring gull as contaminant indicators of different ecological niches of an urban fjord system
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Seabirds like gulls are common indicators in contaminant monitoring. The herring gull (Larus argentatus) is a generalist with a broad range of dietary sources, possibly introducing a weakness in its representativeness of ... -
The NORMAN Association and the European Partnership for Chemicals Risk Assessment (PARC): let’s cooperate!
(Others, 2020)The Partnership for Chemicals Risk Assessment (PARC) is currently under development as a joint research and innovation programme to strengthen the scientific basis for chemical risk assessment in the EU. The plan is to ... -
Målinger av SO2 i omgivelsene til Elkem Carbon og REC Solar. September 2019 – august 2020.
(NILU rapport;20/2020, Research report, 2020)På oppdrag fra Elkem Carbon AS har NILU utført målinger av SO2 i omgivelsene til Elkem Carbon og REC Solar i Vågsbygd (Kristiansand kommune). Bedriftene ble pålagt av Miljødirektoratet å gjennomføre SO2-målinger i ... -
Feasibility study for asphalt rubber pavements in Norway. ‘Rubber Road’ feasibility study.
(NILU report;38/2018, Research report, 2020)RubberRoad proposes to use rubber from used tires in the production of asphalt for road and bicycle ways. This recycling approach has not gained much attention in Norway despite its apparent advantages, such as noise ... -
Minimum Information for Reporting on the Comet Assay (MIRCA): recommendations for describing comet assay procedures and results
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The comet assay is a widely used test for the detection of DNA damage and repair activity. However, there are interlaboratory differences in reported levels of baseline and induced damage in the same experimental systems. ... -
Are Sterols Useful for the Identification of Sources of Faecal Contamination in Shellfish? A Case Study.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This work aimed to identify the major source(s) of faecal pollution impacting Salcott Creek oyster fisheries in the UK through the examination of the sterol profiles. The concentration of the major sewage biomarker, ... -
FLEXPART v10.1 simulation of source contributions to Arctic black carbon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The Arctic environment is undergoing rapid changes such as faster warming than the global average and exceptional melting of glaciers in Greenland. Black carbon (BC) particles, which are a short-lived climate pollutant, ... -
Exposure to PFAS is associated with telomere length dynamics and demographic responses of an arctic top predator
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Environmental factors that can influence telomeres are diverse, but the association between telomeres and exposure to environmental contaminants is yet to be elucidated. To date, prior studies have focused on legacy ... -
Måling av NO2 ved E16/E39 Arna – Vågsbotn – Klauvaneset med passive prøvetakere. Februar og mars 2020.

The fingerprint of the summer 2018 drought in Europe on ground-based atmospheric CO2 measurements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)During the summer of 2018, a widespread drought developed over Northern and Central Europe. The increase in temperature and the reduction of soil moisture have influenced carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange between the atmosphere ... -
Impact of solar irradiance and geomagnetic activity on polar NOx, ozone and temperature in WACCM simulations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The response of the atmosphere to solar irradiance and geomagnetic activity is analyzed in experiments with the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (WACCM) under idealized forcings. Four experiments are carried out ... -
Atmospheric transport is a major pathway of microplastics to remote regions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In recent years, marine, freshwater and terrestrial pollution with microplastics has been discussed extensively, whereas atmospheric microplastic transport has been largely overlooked. Here, we present global simulations ... -
