Air pollution and climate change increased the importance of renewable energy resources like solar energy in the last decades. Rack-mounted PhotoVoltaics (PV) and Building Integrated PhotoVoltaics (BIPV) are the most common photovoltaic systems which convert incident solar radiation on façade...

Ammonia and hydrogen sulphide flux and dry deposition velocity were estimated using micrometeorological vertical gradient flux method at a commercial cattle feedyard of approximately 50,000 head of beef cattle and average 14.4 m²/head (150 ft²/head) stocking density. Ammonia-N and H<SUB align="right"><SMALL>2</SMALL></SUB>S-S...</small></sub>

As a continuing effort by the State of North Carolina to develop a State Implementation Plan for ozone control in the Raleigh Metropolitan Statistical Area, vertical measurements of C<SUB align="right"><SMALL>2</SMALL></SUB>–C<SUB align="right"><SMALL>10</SMALL></SUB> hydrocarbons and ozone are made on a 610 meter multi-communications tower.

Atmospheric emissions, transport, transformation and deposition of trace gases may be simulated through chambers. The dynamic flow-through chamber system has been developed in response to a need to measure emissions of nitrogen, sulphur and carbon compounds for a variety of field applications....

A dry deposition modelling approach that includes surface feedback through photosynthesis relationships was recently developed. A canopy photosynthesis model is dynamically coupled to an atmospheric model with prognostic soil hydrology and surface energy balance. The effective surface resistance...

In this study, an inexact optimization modeling approach (IBEM: inexact Beijing energy model) was developed for supporting energy systems planning and air pollution mitigation under uncertainty. This model was based on the integration of multiple inexact optimization techniques, including...

The determination of optimum thickness of insulation is often applied to energy technologies and building projects. In this study, the energy, economic and environmental evaluations of thermal insulation in district heating pipeline are discussed. The optimum insulation thickness, energy saving...

This study presents a roadmap for converting California's all-purpose (electricity, transportation, heating/cooling, and industry) energy infrastructure to one derived entirely from wind, water, and sunlight (WWS) generating electricity and electrolytic hydrogen. California's available WWS...
