Måling av gasser i Statsarkivets lokaler i Trondheim. Fase 2 - 2024
Denne rapporten viser resultater fra fase 2 i måleprosjektet NILU har utført ved Statsarkivet i Trondheim. Det er gjort prøvetaking og analyse i en periode på sju dager fra 23. til 30. mai ved to lokaliteter, én innendørs og én utendørs. Totalkonsentrasjonen av VOC’er (TVOC) ble målt til 135 µg/m3 gitt som toluen-ekvivalenter ved lokaliteten inne (MAG A, Reol 097) og 33 µg/m3 ved lokaliteten ute. Resultatene synliggjør effekten av innendørs ventilasjonssystemer og begge studiene vil brukes av Statsarkivet i sitt videre arbeid med innendørs luftkvalitet.

Assessing the environmental burden of disease related to air pollution in Europe in 2022
This report evaluates the health burden due to long-term exposure to PM2.5, NO2, and O3 across Europe in 2022. By analysing all-cause and cause-specific mortality and morbidity, it estimates disease burden using four indicators: Attributable Deaths (AD), Years of Life Lost, Years Lived with Disability, and Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALY). However, the main results only consider the impact of exposure to levels of pollutants exceeding the current WHO air quality guidelines. The results indicate that PM2.5 contributes the most significant health impact (linked to six diseases), resulting in over 2.7 million DALY across 40 countries, and resulting in 269 000 AD, with mortality rates peaking in Eastern Europe. The report introduces methodological advancements, assessing the long-term impacts of O3 for the first time. Findings underscore the critical need for targeted air quality interventions, as pollution continues to drive significant health losses across the continent, particularly among vulnerable populations.

The report presents interim 2023 maps for PM10 annual average, PM2.5 annual average, O3 indicator peak season average of maximum daily 8-hour means, and NO2 annual average. The maps have been produced based on the 2023 non-validated E2a (UTD) data of the AQ e-reporting database, the CAMS Ensemble Forecast modelling data and other supplementary data. Together with the concentration maps, the inter-annual differences between 5-year average 2018-2022 and 2023 are presented (using the 2018-2022 regular and the 2023 interim maps), as well as basic exposure estimates based on the interim maps.

Air quality in Sandefjord, Norway. November 2021 – August 2023.
This report examines the air quality patterns in terms of particulate matter with a diameter less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5) in Sandefjord, Norway. PM2.5 was monitored through five low-cost sensors in hourly resolution from November 2021 to August 2023. The sensors’ reliability is high, with consistent PM2.5 measurements and similar variation over time. Occasional extreme PM2.5 was attributed to local contributions with higher values observed during cold months, or specific long-range transport events. Overall, Sandefjord maintained good air quality for most of the measurement period with daily PM2.5 levels below the air quality criteria. Residential heating activities (wood burning) is the most significant local source, being more pronounced during winter.

Environmental pollutants in the terrestrial and urban environment 2023
Samples from the urban terrestrial environment in the Oslo area were analysed for metals and a large number of organic environmental pollutants. The selected samples that were analysed were soil, earthworm, fieldfare egg, brown rat liver, roe deer liver, vegetation, honeybee, and Spanish slug. Biomagnification potential was estimated based on detected data for relevant predator-prey pairs.

Monitoring of the atmospheric ozone layer and natural ultraviolet radiation. Annual Report 2023
This report summarizes the results from the Norwegian monitoring programme on stratospheric ozone and UV radiation measurements. The ozone layer has been measured at three locations since 1979: In Oslo/Kjeller, Tromsø/Andøya and Ny-Ålesund. The UV measurements started in 1995. The results show that there was a significant decrease in stratospheric ozone above Norway between 1979 and 1997. After that, the ozone layer stabilized at a level ~2% below pre-1980 level. The year 2023 was characterized by low ozone values in winter, high spring values, and annual average total ozone values slightly below the long-term mean.
