FORURENS: Uptake, metabolism and effects of Deca-BDE, HCBD and TBBPA in terrestrial birds

Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) are used in a wide range of products to reduce flammability, and thus to decrease human and economical loss due to fire. At present, the production and use of the BFRs of most concern, the penta and octabrominated diphen yl ethers have been significantly reduced...

FORURENS:. Pharmaceutical residues in Norwegian sewage treatment plants and the adjacent aqueous environment under different climate regimes

PHARMAFATE 1will focus on release patterns (from diurnal to seasonal patterns) and basic environmental degradation pathways (primary transformation, mineralisation) for a selection of six environmentally relevant pharmaceutical residues. Retention propert ies and release patterns of Benzylpenicil...

FORURENS: Predicting environmental properties of organic contaminants of emerging concern- QSAR approach with the use of LSER descriptors

Some of the environmental pollutants, due to the susceptibility to be transported by air- and ocean currents, reach pristine and remote areas far away from the actual site of use or release. The potential of substances to degrade in relevant environmental media, either through biodegradation by ...

FORURENS: FLEXPOP: Further development of a Lagrangian particle dispersion model (FLEXPART) to evaluate the atmospheric fate and distribut..

Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are a subgroup of organic contaminants. POP substances often have 3 characteristics in common (i) one or more cyclical ring structures of either aromatic or aliphatic nature, (ii) a lack of polar functional groups, and (iii) a variable amount of halogen subst...

FORURENS: Critical level of P in soil and sediments related to risk of eutrophication, and optimising supply and utilization of P in agricul

Water quality in lakes, streams and rivers in districts with considerable agricultural activity, is largely classified as poor to very poor, due to large inputs of nutrients, in particular phosphorus. The negative development in water quality in spite of considerable abatement erosion strategies ...

The fib-model. Modelling fish in recovery from acidification

We propose here to extend a response model for brown trout populations in Norwegian lakes undergoing recovery from acidification, the FIB model ("Fisk I Bedring" = "Fish in Recovery"), as dynamic models for biological response are lacking, and there is an urgent need for such models to evaluate ...

FORURENS: Secondary organic aerosols in urban areas

The objective of the project is to understand and quantify the contribution of biogenic and anthropogenic components to the total particulate matter (PM) in the urban atmosphere. This will be done through numerical modeling and atmospheric measurements. T he modeling will be done by three types o...

FORURENS-Forurensning

Bayesian network integration of nutrient loading and lake eutrophication models in cost-effectiveness analysis of abatement measures

One of the major problems of water quality in Norway is eutrophication, which tends to occur in low-lying areas, particularly near urban areas and agricultural land. Due to the gravity of the situation, authorities and the local population demand effectiv e countermeasures, which in turn require ...

FORURENS-Forurensning

The future role for Nitrogen in acidification; investigating the changes in N runoff using modeling, empirical and experimen......se 141498

During recent years attention has been drawn upon increased leakage of nitrate from mountain and heathland areas receiving high Nitrogen deposition. Increased leakage of nitrate may cause deterioration of drinking water, acidification of surface waters an d contribute to marine eutrophication. In...

FORURENS: Occurrence, dispersal modeling and toxic effects of a multitude of contaminants in Lake Mjøsa - a deep Nordic lake

The project will focus on the occurrence and fate of a multitude of pollutants in Lake Mjøsa. This deep fjord lake is the largest lake in Norway, and it has been supplied with a multitude of both classical and newly discovered, less studied contaminants. Recent studies have proved exceptional hig...
