An optimization model for the management of green areas

International Transactions in Operational Research, 2021
In this paper, we present an optimization model for the management of the green area in order to find the optimal green surface to absorb CO 2 emissions of industrialized cities. We obtain a minimization problem and the related variational inequality.

OPEN GEOSPATIAL DATA FOR URBAN GREEN AREAS [PDF]

ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
Abstract. More than half of the world’s population lives in big urbanized areas. It is not rare that those areas are lacking natural green spaces. Green spaces improve different aspects of life in cities and they are becoming so important that lately more and more attention is given to the so-called green infrastructure.

Suitability of a CMV/EGFP cassette to monitor stable expression from human artificial chromosomes but not transient transfer in the cells forming viable clones [PDF]

, 2004
Human artificial chromosomes (HACs) were generated by transfer of telomerized PAC constructs containing alpha satellite DNA of various human chromosomes. To monitor which cells took up constructs and subsequently formed stable clones under blasticidin S (
