Evaluation of Sustainable Urban Design With a Focus on Spatial Organization and Climatic Analysis
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The urban heat island (UHI) effect increases with the growth of cities and population. This situation triggers global climate change, and cities are negatively affected by this situation. In this study, five provinces (Antalya, Gaziantep, Bursa, Kayseri, and Erzurum) located in different climate zones in Turkey were selected as samples ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urban expansion is a major driver of habitat fragmentation, shrinking wildlife habitat, and restricting wildlife movements and activity patterns. In this novel environment, species must adapt to the new composition of wildlife communities. For example, red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris are commonly found in urban environments, while their potential ...

Limited Round Robin Asphalt Content Test Using Troxler Furnace [PDF]
The Asphalt Content by Ignition test can be used to determine the asphalt content of a hot mix asphalt (HMA). This test, developed by the National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT), burns the asphalt binder from a mix and thus allows the determination
