Evaluation of new data sources for improving the estimation of background concentrations in Norway. NILU OR
A previous report (OR 68/2011) described a geostatistical methodology developed for creating a consistent dataset of background concentrations of NO2, O3, PM10, and PM2.5 in Norway, that are representative of a typical year. The resulting dataset has a resolution of 0.1 degrees by 0.1 degrees and is available at hourly temporal resolution. Based on this existing methodology, this study reports on the evaluation of new data sources as a means of improving such estimates of background concentrations. The potential of satellite-derived NO2 data is evaluated for guiding the geostatistics-based spatial interpolation procedure of NO2 station data in Norway. Furthermore, the output from a high-resolution atmospheric model was tested with respect to its capability of improving the spatial and temporal characterization of background concentrations. Finally, an online web mapping system was developed to make the project results easily accessible and to provide basic data analysis and visualization routines for the public.

Fjernvarmesentral i Torshavn. Vurdering av beregninger. NILU OR
NILU har gjennomført enkle kontrollberegninger og gjennomgått to separate notater/rapporter vedrørende belastning av luftforurensning ved en planlagt fjernvarmesentral på Færøyene. NILU slutter seg til konklusjonen trukket av H.R. Olesen om at en 20 m høy skorstein vil overholde dansk regelverk for utslipp og konsentrasjon

NILU gjennomførte screeningprosjektet i 2013. Denne rapporten beskriver resultatene og disse er sammenlignet og diskutert med tidligere funn i både Norge og andre regioner.

Monitoring of the atmospheric ozone layer and natural ultraviolet radiation. Annual report 2012. NILU OR
Rapporten presenterer måledata for totalozon og UV-stråling over norske målestasjoner i 2012. For Oslo, Andøya og Ny-Ålesund er trenden i totalozon beregnet for perioden 1979-2012. Ozonverdiene over Norge var tilnærmet normale 2012, bortsett fra vinterverdiene i Oslo som var lavere enn normalt. Den klare reduksjonen av ozonlaget over Norge i perioden 1979-1997 stoppet opp i 1998 og ozonlaget over Norge ser nå ut til å ha stabilisert seg.

Chemical speciation of fine airborne particles in Abu Dhabi. NILU OR
PM2.5 was sampled at two urban background sites in Abu Dhabi (Khalifa in the city of Abu Dhabi and Bida Zayed) and analysed chemically for further source identification and quantification. Understanding of source contributions to PM2.5 is a prerequisite for the formulation of effective control strategies for PM2.5 emissions.
For both sites, five source factors were identified. Long-range transported aerosol is the largest contributor (~41%) to average PM2.5 mass concentrations at both sites. It gradually forms from SO2, which is possibly emitted into ambient in the Arabian Gulf area, while it is transported to the sites. Mineral dust was found to be the second most important source, contributing ~25% at both sites. It represents an ubiquitous natural contribution of mainly regional origin to particulate matter in Abu Dhabi.
Other source contributions to particle concentrations found at Khalifa identified were: local traffic (15.1%), shipping/industry (10.5%) and sea salt (4.0%). The latter is a natural contribution.
At Bida Zayed, a mixed traffic/industry factor (13.2%) was found, as well as another two factors of natural origin, explaining 11.4% and 8.7%
