This book was released on 2023-12-01 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to provide a comprehensive study on various aspects of environmental pollution dynamics using geospatial technology and modeling techniques. The utility of geospatial technology will be demonstrated for the effective study of environmental pollution, as space and location are very important for effective environmental health surveillance. The timeliness of the work is due to the increasing relevance of geospatial technology applications in environmental health investigations. Moreover, different types of pollution are covered in detail, including air and soil, all of which are analyzed using latest Remote Sensing and GIS technology. The basics of environmental pollution and its impacts are covered in the book's first part, while the second part focuses on the use of geospatial technology in investigating and modeling various instances of environmental pollution. The third part discusses policy measures for mitigating environmental pollution hazards, using geospatial analyses and data to craft informed policy decisions. The primary audience for the book is researchers working in the field of environmental pollution with incorporation of geospatial technology, including upper-level undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in remote sensing and its environmental applications. The secondary audience is academicians, planners, environmentalists and policymakers working in the field of environment protection and management.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 768 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interest in air pollution modelling has shown substantial growth over the last five years. This was particularly evident by the increasing number of participants attending the NATO/CCMS International Technical Meetings on Air Pollution modelling and its Application. At the last meeting 118 papers and posters were selected from an abundance of submitted abstracts divided over five modelling topics: (i) model assessment and verification, including policy applications, (ii) air pollution modelling in coastal areas with emphasis on the mediterranean region, (iii) accidental atmospheric releases, including warning systems and regulations, (iv) modelling of global and long-range transport and (v) new developments in turbulent diffusion. A round-table discussion chaired by John Irwin (USA) and Jan Kretzschmar (Belgium) on the harmonization of air pollution models was attended by more than 50 scientists and is reported in these proceedings. The opening paper addressed the main issue of this conference: modelling over complex terrain. Of particular interest were coastal areas where the surface inhomogeneities introduce small-scale circulation and varying atmospheric stability, often combined with a complex topography. As the conference was located on the beautiful island of Crete, problems faced by the host nation, particularly Athens and its environs were obvious examples for consideration. These together with other regions with similar geographical features were addressed. Heavily populated and industrialized as they often are, air quality is generally poor there and emission regulations are desired. Obviously, a major task of air pollution dispersion modelling is to assist policy makers in formulating sensible regulations.

This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook aims to develop a scientific knowledge base on spatial information technology to communicate the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) among students, researchers, professionals and laymen. The book improves understanding of the spatial database and explains how to extract information from this for planning purposes. To enhance the knowledge of geoscientists and environmentalists, the book describes the basic fundamental concepts to advance techniques for spatial data management and analysis and discusses the methodology. The Geographic Information System (GIS), remote sensing and Global Positioning System (GPS) are presented in an integrated manner for the planning of resources and infrastructure. The management of these systems is discussed in a very lucid way to develop the reader's skills. The proper procedure for map making and spatial analysis are included along with case studies to the reader. Where the first part of the book discusses the conceptual background, the second part deals with case studies using these applications in different disciplines. The presented case studies include land use, agriculture, flood, watershed characterization and infrastructure assessment for the Sustainable Development Goals.

Download or read book Airshed-based Statistical Modeling of the Spatial Distribution of Air Pollution written by Kang-Ping Shen and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Air pollution is characterized by transboundary properties, dynamic processes, non-linear behavior, and long-range transport. Because of these characteristics, it is difficult to model air pollution behavior using the basic equations that represent the underlying physical transport and chemical transformation processes. As an alternative, a modeling approach is proposed in the particular case of sulfur dioxide (SO2), based on a circular and sectoral spatial representation of an airshed, and combining concepts derived from physical diffusion modeling and statistical regression modeling. An important feature of this approach is that it provides a means to construct a regionally scaleable air quality model. While using data collected locally (at the airshed level) for estimation purposes, the spatial interconnection of individual airsheds provides the means to model larger-scale air pollution processes, including the national or continental scale. The basic statistical model estimates the relationship between (1) background concentrations and pollution emissions from point and area sources and (2) the resulting concentration at a receptor site located at the center of the airshed, while accounting for pollution decay and uptake, meteorological conditions, and land cover characteristics. To empirically capture this spatial relationship, a considerable database, with extensive use of a Geographical Information System (GIS), is developed, connecting pollution emission sources, air quality monitoring stations, meteorological stations, and land uses. Because of the complex and non-linear structure of the model, an interactive grid search procedure has been designed to estimate the model, based on Ordinary Least Squares regression. The final estimated model explains about 56% of the variations in SO2 concentrations. An air quality optimization model, based on this statistical model and using linear programming, is introduced, and a case study, focusing on the state of Pennsylvania and larger-scale emitters (more than 10,000 tons of SO2 per year), is presented. The solution outlines how emission patterns change with the ambient pollution standard. The applicability of this airshed-based modeling approach for policy analysis is discussed, including (1) air quality forecasting, and (2) air quality planning. Dynamic extensions of the approach and potential data sources are also discussed. Finally, areas for further research are delineated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finishing this book is giving me a mixture of relief, satisfaction and frus tration. Relief, for the completion of a project that has taken too many of my evenings and weekends and that, in the last several months, has become almost an obsession. Satisfaction, for the optimistic feeling that this book, in spite of its many shortcomings and imbalances, will be of some help to the air pollution scientific community. Frustration, for the impossibility of incorporating newly available material that would require another major review of several key chap ters - an effort that is currently beyond my energies but not beyond my desires. The first canovaccio of this book came out in 1980 when I was invited by Computational Mechanics in the United Kingdom to give my first Air Pollution Modeling course. The course material, in the form of transparencies, expanded, year after year, thus providing a growing working basis. In 1985, the ECC Joint Research Center in Ispra, Italy, asked me to prepare a critical survey of mathe matical models of atmospheric pollution, transport and deposition. This support gave me the opportunity to prepare a sort of "first draft" of the book, which I expanded in the following years.
