Background for spatial differentiation in LCA impact assessment - The EDIP2003 methodology

Figure 7.15. Increase of accumulated exposure versus distance for one gram benzene released at 25m at the North, Central, South European and maritime site as a function of distance from the source. To compare dependence of the increase of accumulated human exposure on climate with dependence on local population, three Dutch sites with similar climate as the maritime site but different population densities have been included. Though the residence time of benzene corresponds to a source distance of about 3500km we present model results only up to the distance where the trajectories hit the nearest edge of the model domain.
