(author), Ragas, A.M.J. (author)Over the past decade, the health care sector has becomeincreasingly aware of the impact of pharmaceutical emissions to the environment. Yet, it remains unclearwhich compounds are the most relevant to address and at what point emission control is most effective. This study presents a modelling framework to prioritize pharmaceuticals based on...article 2019

Guevara, M. (author), Pay, M.T. (author), Martinez, F. (author), Soret, A. (author), Denier van der Gon, H.A.C. (author), Baldasano, J.M. (author)This work examines and compares the performance of two emission datasets on modelling air quality concentrations for Spain: (i) the High-Elective Resolution Modelling Emissions System (HERMESv2.0) and (ii) the TNO-MACC-II emission inventory. For this purpose, the air quality system CALIOPE-AQFS (WRF-ARW/CMAQ/BSC-DREAM8b) was run over Spain for...article 2014

Bieser, J. (author), Aulinger, A. (author), Matthias, V. (author), Quante, M. (author), Denier Van Der Gon, H.A.C. (author)The vertical allocation of emissions has a major impact on results of Chemistry Transport Models. However, in Europe it is still common to use fixed vertical profiles based on rough estimates to determine the emission height of point sources. This publication introduces a set of new vertical profiles for the use in chemistry transport modeling...article 2011

Bigazzi, A. (author), van Lint, J.W.C. (author), Klunder, G. (author), Stelwagen, U. (author), Ligterink, N.E. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)In order to assist planning efforts for air pollution-responsive dynamic traffic management (DTM) systems, this research assesses the accuracy of local emissions monitoring based on traffic data and models. The study quantifies the benefits of increased data resolution for short-term emissions estimates at a signalized intersection. The...conference paper 2010

TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author), Ligterink, N.E. (author)The demand for local and time-dependent emission predictions, in combination with new time-dependent modal-mass and mobile PEMS measurements induced major changes in the VERSIT+ emission model of TNO. The current version is the third, after the second major revision and has two major differences with the previous approach. First, an individual...article 2009

Smit, R. (author), Poelman, M. (author), Schrijver, J. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Does consideration of average speed distributions on roads-as compared to single mean speed-lead to different results in emission modelling of large road networks? To address this question, a post-processing method is developed to predict mean speed distributions using available traffic data from a dynamic macroscopic traffic model (Indy) that...article 2008
