Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatus of Air Quality with Potential Linkage to the Metrological Conditions in Three Major Cities of PakistanNaima Hamid, Muhammad Junaid, Syeda Maria Ali et al.Environmental pollution being fatal for all living organisms is growing adversely due to excessive industrialization and urbanization. Vehicular emissions have aggravated the situation and pose detrimental effects on human health. In this study, the trend of ambient air quality was analyzed in the three metropolitan cities of Pakistan, including Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad for a period of three years (2008-2010). … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 11 Mar 2019 · 8,857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Integrated Approach to Modelling of Flood Hazards in the Rapidly Growing City of Osogbo, Osun State, NigeriaSuleiman Abdul-Azeez Adegboyega, Oluchi Christiana Onuoha, Komolafe Akinola Adesuji et al.In recent times, the swift and uncoordinated urban expansion in the medium sized city of Osogbo has increasingly encroached on the environmental sensitive areas. This uncoordinated exploitation of the ecological fragile areas for urban development has triggered urban flooding, which poses serious threat to human lives and properties in the city. This study therefore utilized geospatial technologies to generate flood … …Space Science International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2018 · 13,835 accessesView PDFCite
