Spatial distributions and chemical properties of PM2.5 based on 21 field campaigns at 17 sites in China

TL;DR: Daily 24-h bulk filter samples were collected and analyzed for totally 21 field campaigns at 17 sites in China between 2008 and 2013 to provide a better understanding of the current state of air pollution in diversified Chinese cities.
Journal ArticleDOI

The interrelationship of green infrastructure and natural capital

TL;DR: In this paper, a case study illustrates how green infrastructure projects are a practical application of the natural capital concept in that they seek to preserve and enhance natural capital via a management approach which emphasizes the importance of environmental systems and networks for the direct provision of ecosystem services to human populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation and Characterization of Musa balbisiana Colla Underground Stem Nano-material for Biodiesel Production Under Elevated Conditions

TL;DR: A high free fatty acid (FFA) containing Jatropha curcas L. oil (JCO) was used for biodiesel production using Musa balbisiana Colla underground stem (MBCUS) ash catalyst, in a high pressure-high temperature (HT) reactor as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of the long-term impacts of PM10 and PM2.5 particles from construction works on surrounding areas.

TL;DR: The findings clearly indicate an impact of construction activities on the nearby downwind areas and a need for developing mitigation measures to limit their escape from the construction sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vertical and horizontal variability in airborne nanoparticles and their exposure around signalised traffic intersections.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured size-resolved PNCs in the 5-560-nm range at two different types (4 and 3-way) of TIs in Guildford (Surrey, UK) at fixed sites (∼1.5 m above the road level), sequentially at 4 different heights (1, 1.5, 2.5 and 4.7 m), and along the road at five different distances (10, 20, 30, 45 and 60
