Urban Air Pollution, Urban Heat Island and Human Health: A Review of the Literature
Many cities of the world suffer from air pollution because of poor planning and design and heavy traffic in rapidly expanding urban environments. These conditions are exacerbated due to the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect.

Discretized Linear Regression and Multiclass Support Vector Based Air Pollution Forecasting Technique [PDF]
Air pollution is a vital issue emerging from the uncontrolled utilization of traditional energy sources as far as developing countries are concerned. Hence, ingenious air pollution forecasting methods are indispensable to minimize the risk. To that end, this paper proposes an Internet of Things (IoT) enabled system for monitoring and controlling air ...

Air Pollution Hotspot Detection and Source Feature Analysis using Cross-domain Urban Data [PDF]
Air pollution is a major global environmental health threat, in particular for people who live or work near pollution sources. Areas adjacent to pollution sources often have high ambient pollution concentrations, and those areas are commonly referred to as air pollution hotspots.

Novel Regression and Least Square Support Vector Machine Learning Technique for Air Pollution Forecasting [PDF]
Air pollution is the origination of particulate matter, chemicals, or biological substances that brings pain to either humans or other living creatures or instigates discomfort to the natural habitat and the airspace. Hence, air pollution remains one of the paramount environmental issues as far as metropolitan cities are concerned.

Eddy covariance methane flux measurements over a grazed pasture: effect of cows as moving point sources [PDF]
Methane (CH4) from ruminants contributes one-third of global agricultural greenhouse gas emissions. Eddy covariance (EC) technique has been extensively used at various flux sites to investigate carbon dioxide exchange of ecosystems. Since the development
