Can biomonitors effectively detect airborne benzo[<i>a</i>]pyrene? An evaluation approach using modelling

Biomonitoring data available on levels of atmospheric polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in pine needles from the Iberian Peninsula were used to estimate air concentrations of benzo[<i>a</i>]pyrene (BaP) and, at the same time, fuelled the comparison with chemistry transport model...
