Estimation of Air Pollution with Remote Sensing Data: Revealing Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Space [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Air pollution is a major driver of climate change. Anthropogenic emissions from the burning of fossil fuels for transportation and power generation emit large amounts of problematic air pollutants, including Greenhouse Gases (GHGs). Despite the importance of limiting GHG emissions to mitigate climate change, detailed information about the spatial and ...

Dysfunctional tetraspanin 7 (TSP‐7) in Caenorhabditis elegans promotes; increases in average life‐ & health‐span, stress‐induced survival and motility

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The C. elegans tetraspanin‐7 (tsp‐7) is a homologue of human CD63, which is a negative regulator of autophagy. The C. elegans strain, tm5761, has a dysfunctional (knockout) tsp‐7 gene. When compared to the wild‐type strain, the tm5761 strain shows increased: life‐ and health‐span; thermotolerance, and stress‐induced locomotion.

Dispersion Effects of Particulate Lead (Pb) from the Stack of a Lead Battery Recycling Plant

Energies, 2020
The contribution of emissions from the stack of a lead battery recycling plant to atmospheric lead concentrations and, eventually, to the topsoil of the surrounding area, were studied.

Enhanced discovery of bacterial laccase‐like multicopper oxidase through computer simulation and metagenomic analysis of industrial wastewater

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We obtained potential bacterial laccase‐like multicopper oxidase (LMCO) sequences through metagenomic sequencing. All sequences exhibited significant differences from known LMCOs in databases. To select the most promising candidates, we performed structure prediction and molecular docking using alphafold2, metal3d and rosetta.

Pollution lumineuse, pollution insidieuse

Bulletin de l'Académie Nationale de Médecine, 2020
RESUME Contrairement aux autres sources de pollution, l’agression lumineuse par les nouvelles sources de lumiere artificielle sont moins souvent denoncees. Et cependant, la retine y est constamment exposee. A tout le moins une photo-protection par des verres filtrant les rayonnements nocifs pour la retine pourrait etre a recommander, tout ...

Analysis of air pollution time series using complexity-invariant distance and information measures [PDF]

, 2019
Air pollution is known to be a major threat for human and ecosystem health. A proper understanding of the factors generating pollution and of the behavior of air pollution in time is crucial to support the development of effective policies aiming at the reduction of pollutant concentration.

KupferDigital: Ontology‐Based Digital Representation for the Copper Life Cycle

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is demonstrated how data from different stages in the life cycle of a copper product can be stored in an ontology‐based data space. In order to showcase the methods and tools used in the project, four use cases are presented that show how data from different sources can be semantically described and queried from a shared data space.

The cost of clean air: a price analysis of air filtration technology [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Air pollution is a pernicious but increasingly rampant health problem in human populations across the globe. Varying duration of exposure to airborne pollutants can result in a plethora of health conditions, ranging from short-term bronchitis to prolonged cardiovascular diseases and lung cancers.
