Målet er å belyse hvilke kvalitetskrav som bør stilles til luftkvalitetsberegninger, kart og data til ulike bruksformål slik disse er formulert i norsk regelverk, herunder Forurensningsloven, Folkehelseloven, Plan- og bygningsloven, Retningslinje for behandling av luftkvalitet i arealplanlegging (T1520) m.fl. Miljødirektoratet ønsker å sikre god, enhetlig og sammenlignbar kvalitet og praksis på utredninger av luftkvalitet og har bedt om anbefalinger i form av denne rapporten.
For å få et best mulig grunnlag for å vurdere behovet for veiledning og kvalitetskriterier for ulike anvendelser, har det vært fokus på å innhente informasjon og innspill fra ulike brukergrupper og fagmiljøer. Det er gjennomført en spørreundersøkelse og det er arrangert flere møter og åpne kommentarrunder med ulike brukergrupper og fagmiljøer. Siden eventuelle kvalitetskrav vil kunne ha betydning for konkurranse i markedet og påvirke ressursbruken både hos private aktører og myndigheter, har brukermedvirkning vært et viktig element i dette arbeidet etter ønske fra oppdragsgiver.

Monitoring of environmental contaminants in air and precipitation. Annual report 2017.
This monitoring report presents data from 2017 and time-trends for the Norwegian programme for Long-range atmospheric transported contaminants. The results cover 180 organic compounds and 11 heavy metals. The organic contaminants include regulated persistent organic pollutants (POPs) as
well as POP-like contaminants not yet subjected to international regulations. Five groups of new POP-like contaminants were included for the first time in 2017.

NILU’s Environmental Management Report 2017
One of NILU’s main goals is to study the impact of pollution and supply decision-makers with a sound scientific platform for choosing measures to reduce the negative impacts. Furthermore, it is very important for the institute to have control of the impact the institute’s own activities may have on the environment and to reduce negative impacts as far as possible.
NILU has for many years been working to improve the status of the environment and to reduce negative impacts. In order to take this one step further, it was decided that the institute should restructure the work according to a relevant environmental standard and to seek certification according to the same standard.
The chosen standard is ISO 14001:2004 (Environmental management systems—Requirements with guidance for use) and NILU achieved certification according to this standard in October 2010. This report summarizes the results of the system in 2017.

Environmental pollutants in the terrestrial and urban environment 2017
Abiotic and biotic samples from the terrestrial and urban environment were analysed for inorganic and various organic contaminants in the Oslo area. The species analysed were earthworms, fieldfare, sparrowhawk, brown rat, tawny owl, red fox and badger. Air and soil samples were also included in the study to increase the understanding on sources and uptake of pollutants. A foodchain approach was used, in order to detect trophic magnification of the different compounds.

Air quality in Ny-Ålesund. Monitoring of local air quality 2016-2017.
The concentrations of the measured components are generally low and below national limit values for the protection of human health and critical levels for the protection of vegetation.
Wind from northern sectors gave the highest average concentrations of nitrogen oxides and sulphur dioxide, which indicates the power station and the harbour as possible sources. The measurement results for CO2 show an annual variation with higher concentrations in the winter and lower in summer. Measured concentrations of CO were most likely caused by local snowmobile traffic.

Skogens helsetilstand i Norge. Resultater fra skogskadeovervåkingen i 2017
Skogens helsetilstand påvirkes i stor grad av klima og værforhold, enten direkte ved tørke, frost og vind, eller indirekte ved at klimaet påvirker omfanget av soppsykdommer og insektangrep. Klimaendringene og den forventede økningen i klimarelaterte skogskader gir store utfordringer for forvaltningen av framtidas skogressurser. Det samme gjør invaderende skadegjørere, både allerede etablerte arter og nye som kan komme til Norge i nær framtid. Denne rapporten presenterer resultater fra skogskadeovervåkingen i Norge i 2017 og trender over tid for følgende temaer...
