Homogeneity of passively ventilated waste tanks [PDF]
, 1997 Gases and vapors in the high-level radioactive waste underground storage tanks at the Hanford Site are being characterized to help resolve waste storage safety issues and estimate air emissions. Characterization is accomplished by collecting and analyzing air samples from the headspaces of the tanks.

Pedestrian-Level Urban Wind Flow Enhancement with Wind Catchers
Atmosphere, 2017 Dense urban areas restrict air movement, causing airflow in urban street canyons to be much lower than the flow above buildings. Boosting near-ground wind speed can enhance thermal comfort in warm climates by increasing skin convective heat transfer.
