Scope
Mortality due to indoor radon concentrations.
- Spatial: Europe
- Temporal: years 2010-2050
Definition
- Lung cancer cases calculated from radon concentration using <math>cases = impact function * concentration * population</math>. IF taken from HEIMTSA and INTARESE (Darby 2004; Darby 2005).
- The referenced impact function is scaled down in assuming only 4.6% of population is exposed, but we assume all are exposed.
Data
Dependencies
- Radon concentrations in European residences
- Population of Europe
- Lung cancer mortality in Europe (from WHO mortality data)
- ERF of radon exposure on lung cancer mortality (heande:ERFs of several pollutants), impact function on the same page used for code below.
Unit
cases per year
Formula
R code
- This code features R functions described on pages Opasnet Base Connection for R and Operating intelligently with multidimensional arrays in R.
- Possible extensions, to accomodate more complex models, are left commented out with # for now.
