ozone (O 3 ) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). Other pollutants such heavy metals (arsenic,
nickel, cadmium and lead) are mainly considered in RPs (Figs. 3.6 and 3.7).
The exposure indicators, for both AQPs and RPs, were estimated based on intake
fraction (emissions), air quality monitored data and air quality modelled data
(Figs. 3.8 and 3.9). Additionally, exposure indicators based on individual exposure
data were also used in the scope of one research project.
