(author), Wang, M. (author), Brunekreef, B. (author)An increasing number of epidemiological studies suggest that adverse health effects of air pollution may be related to particulate matter (PM) composition, particularly trace metals. However, we lack comprehensive data on the spatial distribution of these elements.We measured PM<inf>2.5</inf> and PM<inf>10</inf> in twenty study areas across...article 2015

Visschedijk, A.H.J. (author), Denier van der Gon, H.A.C. (author), Hulskotte, J.H.J. (author), Quass, U. (author)An inventory of Vanadium emissions for North-West Europe for the year 2005 was made based on an identification of the major sources. The inventory covers Belgium, Germany, Denmark, France, United Kingdom, Luxembourg, Netherlands and the OSPAR region of the North Sea. Vanadium emission were calculated bottom-up using energy use activity data and...conference paper 2013

(author), Energieonderzoek Centrum Nederland (author)Urban air quality monitoring networks are requested to provide accurate and relevant data on air pollution levels which serve as basis to assess limit value compliance and the need of mitigation actions. Scientific and technological progress as well as new epidemiological and toxicological research results trigger a continuous demand to re...conference paper 2012

Pulles, M.P.J. (author), Kok, H. (author), Quass, U. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)This study uses an improved emission inventory model to assess the uncertainties in emissions of dioxins and furans associated with both knowledge on the exact technologies and processes used, and with the uncertainties of both activity data and emission factors. The annual total emissions for the year 2000 in 13 countries in central and eastern...article 2006
