Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Temperature and Precipitation on Global Mangrove Rhizophora Species DistributionAroloye O. Numbere, Gerardo R. CamiloClimate change influences the distribution of mangroves towards tropical or temperate regions of the world. We hypothesized that Rhizophora species organized along complex spatial and temporal temperature and precipitation gradient. To determine the affinity of different mangroves with climatic parameters, the response of eight Rhizophora species to seven climatic parameters (i.e., annual mean temperature, annual precipitation, maximum temperature of warmest … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 5 Oct 2017 · 8,259 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCreating a Geographical Information Systems-based Spatial Profile for Exploring Health Services Supply and DemandAbdulkader A.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Vehicle Flows and Emissions for Various Scenarios of Street Network Modifications in Mexico CityAngelica Lozano, Francisco Granados, Juan Pablo AntunWe estimate flows and emissions (NOx, HC, CO) generated by vehicles circulating on the main streets of the Mexico City Metropolitan Area. The estimation is made for various scenarios, which include a set of changes to the street network for current and future horizons. These changes encompass the construction of new arcs or improvement of existing arcs. Network flows are … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,214 accessesView PDFCite
