Daily high-resolution surface PM estimation over Europe by ML-based downscaling of the CAMS regional forecast.

Fine particulate matter (PM) is a key air quality indicator due to its adverse health impacts. Accurate PM assessment requires high-resolution (e.g.

Transfer Efficiency and Organization in Turbulent Transport over Alpine Tundra.

The exchange of momentum, heat and trace gases between atmosphere and surface is mainly controlled by turbulent fluxes. Turbulent mixing is usually parametrized using Monin-Obukhov similarity theory (MOST), which was derived for steady turbulence over homogeneous and flat surfaces, but is nevertheless routinely applied to unsteady turbulence over non-homogeneous surfaces. We study four years of eddy-covariance measurements at a highly heterogeneous alpine valley site in Finse, Norway, to gain insights into the validity of MOST, the turbulent transport mechanisms and the contributing coherent structures.

Neuropsychological Impairment, Brain Injury Symptoms, and Health-Related Quality of Life After Pediatric TBI in Oslo.

Descriptions of clinical outcomes in pediatric traumatic brain injury (pTBI) in Scandinavia are sparse. The Oslo site of the European CENTER-TBI study has performed a pTBI outcome study in a hospitalized population. The main objective was to investigate neuropsychological outcomes, self- and parent-reported symptoms associated with brain injury, and quality of life in children aged 1-15 years, 5-8 months after injury.

A Cold Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Discharge Device Exerts Antimicrobial Effects.

A cold atmospheric pressure plasma device was developed using two parallel plates of Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic with embedded electrodes. The 2.4 cm wide by 1 mm deep plasma discharge operates at 20 kHz with a 2-5 kV AC drive signal across a 0.

Neurocognitive and psychosocial function in children with benign external hydrocephalus (BEH)-a long-term follow-up study.

Introduction: Long-term impact of benign external hydrocephalus (BEH) on cognition is largely unknown, and indication for neurosurgical CSF diversion procedure is debated. This study reports neuropsychological and psychosocial function in operated and non-operated BEH children.

Methods: Eighty-six children (76 males) between 8 and 18 years (mean 13.
