Results from sensitivity analyses of the input variables. The bars show how each individual input variable correlated with the model output. The high correlations indicate that the input variable has a strong impact on the model output. The results are relative, such that removal of one uncertainty will affect the sensitivity of the other uncertainties. Sensitivity analysis was done by calculating absolute rank-order correlations between the input variables and the model output. A. Impact indicator life-expectancy using the 'Current without traffic' scenario. B. Impact indicator monetary valuation using the difference between 'Current without traffic' and 'Reduced traffic emissions' scenarios. C. Impact indicator life-expectancy using the 'Additional exposure' scenario. ER = exposure-response.
