Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Impact Assessment of Quarrying Plants: An IRF Kriging Solution to Noise and Airborne Dust MonitoringDario Lippiello, Guido Alfaro Degan, Mario PinzariA geostatistical approach is tested for the assessment of the environmental impact generated by industrial plants on the surrounding areas. To this end, a case study of a tuff quarry in the Italian region of Lazio is presented. The method utilised is Intrinsic Kriging with external drift which allows spatial maps of different hazardous agents like noise and airborne dust … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2019 · 7,885 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring Factors Affecting on Willingness to Observe Air Pollution Reduction Policies in Tehran, IranPejman Jafari, Afrooz BotshekanOne of the most important issues of these days is an environmental pollution. Environmental problems such as air pollution and climate changes in urban areas are the results of human behavior. Only change in human behavior can reduce these environmental problems. Thus, studying attitude and behavior of people is a precondition to change this situation. This study aimed to examine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2021 · 7,799 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGlass Strength for Impact and Blast LoadingMatthias Förch, Frank WellershoffGlass strength is highly influenced by strain rate. This material behaviour is well known in structural glass design and implemented in various standards. The strength of architectural glass is determined by component tests with a defined strain rate of 2 N/(mm2s), providing favourable terms for testing. As typical effects of actions on facades result in lower or higher strain rates, … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 7 May 2021 · 8,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuilding Resilience in Natural Capital to Reduce Disaster Risks and Adapt to Climate Change: A Case of Wetlands in the Eastern Free State; South AfricaJohanes A. Belle, Nacelle Collins, Andries JordaanWetlands are a form of natural capital which provide services that improve the welbeing of the local community. Unfortunately many wetlands have been degraded before their values and functions were realised. Using a system thing appraoach and a mixed research method, this article collected primary data from 176 respondents using questionnaires. Besides, 21 wetlands were observed using field observation data … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 12 Oct 2017 · 7,972 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Classification of Cropping Patterns Based on Regional Climate Classification Using Decision Tree ApproachTb Ai Munandar, SumiatiNowadays, agricultural field is experiencing problems related to climate change that result in the changing patterns in cropping season, especially for paddy and coarse grains, pulses roots and Tuber (CGPRT/Palawija) crops. The cropping patterns of rice and CGPRT crops highly depend on the availability of rainfall throughout the year. The changing and shifting of the rainy season result in the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 28 Sep 2017 · 8,241 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClimate Projections of Future Extreme Events in MalaysiaA.H. Syafrina, M.D. Zalina, A. NorzaidaIn Malaysia, extreme rainfall events are often linked to a number of environmental disasters such as landslides, monsoonal and flash floods. In response to the negative impacts of such disaster, studies assessing the changes and projections of extreme rainfall are vital in order to gather climate change information for better management of hydrological processes. This study investigates the changes and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 21 Mar 2017 · 8,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVertical Axis Marine Current Turbine ModellingRikhi Ramkissoon, Krishpersad ManoharThe development of alternative energy sources has attracted worldwide interest given the adverse effects of fossil fuels on the global climate as well as their unsustainability. This study examines the feasibility of marine power generation off the East Coast of Trinidad and Tobago and focuses mainly on the Vertical Axis Marine Turbine as the power generator.
