Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Photochemical Smog Pollution in Jakarta Metropolitan, IndonesiaDollaris R. Suhadi, M. Awang, M. N. Hassan et al.An analysis of photochemical smog pollution in Jakarta was attempted using data from the existing air quality monitoring stations. Ground-level ozone potential is high in Jakarta due to the high traffic emissions of ozone precursors and the favorable surface meteorological conditions. Despite the frequent missing data during the 1996-1999 monitoring, which resulted in lower ozone values, ozone episodes were significantly … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonitoring Water Quality Parameters of the Transboundry River NestosPsilovikos Aris, Margoni Sophia, Psilovikos AntoniosThe Nestos/Mesta river, shared by Greece and Bulgaria, needs monitoring system along its course for sustainable management and environmental preservation. Such a system, known as R.E.MO.S., was installed in the year 2000 and operates since then on a 24 h basis at a station in the river deltas channel. It records water level, water and air temperature, conductivity, redox potential … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting Ozone Concentrations Using Box-Jenkins ARIMA Modeling in MalaysiaWan Rozita Wan Mahiyuddin, Nur Izzah Jamil, Zamtira Seman et al.Time series analysis and forecasting has become a major tool in many applications in air pollution and environmental management fields. Among the most effective approaches for analyzing time series data is the model introduced by Box and Jenkins. In this study, we used Box-Jenkins methodology to build Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model on the average of monthly ozone data … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 25 May 2018 · 8,946 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Worldview-2 Satellite Imagery to Support Geoscience Studies on Phlegraean AreaPasquale Maglione, Claudio Parente, Andrea VallarioWorldView-2 satellite imagery includes half-meter panchromatic resolution and 2 m multispectral resolution. Because of the reduced dimensions of pixels and articulated spectral acquisition these images supply detailed information that can be used for geoscience applications, above all to investigate areas, identify land cover, bound vegetated zones, outline transformations (change detection). The aim of this study is to remark possibilities to … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSafety Health Impacts of Particulate Matter from Excavation Work SitesGiuseppe Pizzo, Marina ClericoEpidemiological studies have shown a linear relationship between airborne particulates and effects on human health. This study examines the risk that can be run by populations which are exposed to significant pollutant sources such as excavation in urban areas for renovation work. The health risk assessment methodology defined by the WHO air quality guidelines for Europe was applied to assess … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Jul 2012 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvective Heat Transport in an Unconfined Aquifer Induced by the Field Injection of an Open-Loop Groundwater Heat PumpStefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaProblem statement: The increasing diffusion of low-enthalpy geothermal open-loop Groundwater Heat Pumps (GWHP) providing buildings air conditioning requires a careful assessment of the overall effects on groundwater system, especially in the urban areas. The impact on the groundwater temperature in the surrounding area of the re-injection well is directly linked to the aquifer properties. Physical processes affecting heat transport within … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing Community Health Risks: Proactive Vs Reactive SamplingSarah Taylor, Chelsea Papadopoulos, Sarah Vieillet, Peter Di MarcoProblem statement: A considerable number of native birds died in the West Australian coastal town of Esperance and surroundings during late 2006 and early 2007, which raised community concerns about environmental contamination. Forensic investigations of dead birds suggested that lead may have been the causative agent. At the time, lead and nickel, as well as iron ore and other materials, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,845 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordPrimary Pollutants Monitoring and Modeling Using Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) Around Fahaheel Residential AreaS. M. Al-Salem, A. A. Al-Haddad, A. R. KhanFour major sources of air pollution were identified and modeled using Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) around a residential area. The sources were identified as MAA refinery, downtown area, upstream facilities and main highway road. The sources were analyzed using a series of concentration roses (unfiltered and filtered) executed from the data collected. Data collected included primary and secondary pollutants levels … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,746 accessesView PDFCite
