Kostnader ved miljø- og helseskader ved luftforurensninger: Vurdering av skadefunksjonsmetoden opp mot metoder basert på uttrykte preferanser
Aaheim, H. Asbjørn; Aunan, Kristin; Seip, Hans Martin (CICERO Policy Note;1998:06, Working paper, 1998)For vurdering og verdsetting av miljø og helseskader kan det anvendes "top-down" (TD) eller "bottom-up" (BU) metoder (Aaheim, 1994; Aunan et al., 1995; Swisher, 1996). I TD metoder benyttes makro-økonomiske modeller; noe ... -
Methodologies of health impact assessment as part of an integrated approach to reduce effects of air pollution
Aunan, Kristin; Seip, Hans Martin (CICERO Working Paper;1995:07, Working paper, 1995)Quantification of average frequencies of health effects on a population level is an essential part of an integrated assessment of pollution effects. Epidemiological studies seem to provide the best basis for such estimates. ... -

Reduced damage to health and environment from energy saving: A methodology for integrated assessment applied to a case study in Hungary
Aunan, Kristin (CICERO Working Paper;1998:13, Working paper, 1998)Environmental problems have different characteristics in terms of space and time. Noise, for instance, affects only those being close to the source, and the problem is instantly solved for these if the source is removed. ... -
