  • Breivik, Knut; Eckhardt, Sabine; McLachlan, Michael S; Wania, Frank (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
    Some organic contaminants, including the persistent organic pollutants (POPs), have achieved global distribution through long range atmospheric transport (LRAT). Regulatory efforts, monitoring programs and modelling studies ...
  • Kallenborn, Roland; Breivik, Knut; Eckhardt, Sabine; Lunder, Chris Rene; Manø, Stein; Schlabach, Martin; Stohl, Andreas (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)
    A first long-term monitoring of selected persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in Antarctic air has been conducted at the Norwegian research station Troll (Dronning Maud Land). As target contaminants 32 PCB congeners, α- ...
  • Nøst, Therese Haugdahl; Halse, Anne Karine; Schlabach, Martin; Bäcklund, Are; Eckhardt, Sabine; Breivik, Knut (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
    Ambient air is a core medium for monitoring of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) under the Stockholm Convention and is used in studies of global transports of POPs and their atmospheric sources and source regions. Still, ...
  • Halvorsen, Helene Lunder; Bohlin-Nizzetto, Pernilla; Eckhardt, Sabine; Gusev, Alexey; Krogseth, Ingjerd Sunde; Möckel, Claudia; Shatalov, Victor; Skogeng, Lovise Pedersen; Breivik, Knut (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
    National long-term monitoring programs on persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in background air have traditionally relied on active air sampling techniques. Due to limited spatial coverage of active air samplers, questions ...
  • Krogseth, Ingjerd Sunde; Breivik, Knut; Frantzen, Sylvia; Nilsen, Bente Merete; Eckhardt, Sabine; Nøst, Therese Haugdahl; Wania, Frank (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    There is concern over possible effects on ecosystems and humans from exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and chemicals with similar properties. The main objective of this study was to develop, evaluate, and ...
  • Eckhardt, Sabine; Breivik, Knut; Li, Yi-Fan; Manø, Stein; Stohl, Andreas (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2009)
    A key feature of POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) is their potential for long-range atmospheric transport. In order to better understand and predict atmospheric source-receptor relationships of POPs, we have modified ...
  • Skogeng, Lovise Pedersen; Halvorsen, Helene Lunder; Breivik, Knut; Eckhardt, Sabine; Herzke, Dorte; Moeckel, Claudia; Krogseth, Ingjerd Sunde (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    The highly chlorinated chemical Dechlorane Plus (DP) was introduced as a replacement flame retardant for Mirex, which is banned through the Stockholm Convention (SC) for its toxicity (T), environmental persistence (P), ...
  • Halvorsen, Helene Lunder; Bohlin-Nizzetto, Pernilla; Eckhardt, Sabine; Gusev, Alexey; Moeckel, Claudia; Shatalov, Victor; Skogeng, Lovise Pedersen; Breivik, Knut (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    Concentration data on POPs in air is necessary to assess the effectiveness of international regulations aiming to reduce the emissions of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) into the environment. POPs in European background ...
  • Halse, Anne Karine; Schlabach, Martin; Eckhardt, Sabine; Sweetman, Andy; Jones, Kevin C; Breivik, Knut (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2011)
    Passive air samplers (PAS) were deployed at 86 European background sites during summer 2006 in order (i) to gain further insight into spatial patterns of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in European background air and, ...
  • Breivik, Knut; MacLeod, Matthew; Wania, Frank; Eckhardt, Sabine (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
    Most environmental monitoring programs on organic contaminants, such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs), have a restricted explicit geographical scope, targeting a specific country or region. Such programs often aim ...
