HENVINET. Evaluation questionnaire - causal chain for nanoparticles. NILU TR

Rahman, Q.; Smita, S.; Gupta S.K. Ed. by Yang, A.; Bartonova, A.

The HENVINET consortium has developed a questionnaire to identify knowledge gaps in the state of the art in scientific knowledge. Literature reviews covered all elements that compose the causal chain of the different environmental health issues from emissions to exposures, to effects and to health impacts. Ultimately, the aim is to discuss the implications of these for policy and research.

In this evaluation we focus on effect of nanoparticles on various environmental processes and their impact on human health. The questionnaire consists of two separate parts. In Part A, you will be asked to comment on the completeness and structure of a diagram illustrating our current understanding of the cause-effect relationship of intentional and unintentional nanoparticles on environment and their subsequent impact on human health. In Part B, you will be asked to express your level of confidence in scientists' ability to predict the magnitude of a disease burden that is expected to occeur as a result of release of nanoparticles in the environment.

Reporting air quality in Dakar, Senegal. NILU OR

Sivertsen, B.

The Norwegian Institute for Air Research (NILU) has developed the air quality monitoring and management programme for Dakar, Senegal. Part of this project involves the development of templates for reporting of the air quality based on measurements of air pollution and meteorology. This example of reporting procedures is strictly limited to the reporting of measurement results. Templates are presented for:
¿ Daily and weekly reports
¿ Monthly data reports
¿ Quarterly assessment reports
¿ Annual ¿State of the environment¿ report.
The templates indicate typical content with different examples of presentations, air quality statistics and figures and tables prepared in order to assess the air quality in Dakar. Similar procedures are being used by different authorities worldwide.
