Rural sustainable drainage systems:a practical design and build guide for Scotland's farmers and landowners [PDF]
, 2016 Soil cultivation, manure / fertiliser applications and chemical spraying can all contribute to diffuse pollution from agricultural land. Rainfall runoff from farm roads, tracks, yards and dusty roofs are also potential sources of diffuse pollution ...

Diffusion of reacting pollutants
Applied Mathematical Modelling, 1980 Abstract The Boltzmann equation including reactive scattering terms is the correct description of the combined transport-reaction process. A suitable parameterization transforms it into a set of differential equations governing the macroscopic mass balance.

Ozone and haze pollution weakens net primary productivity in China [PDF]
, 2017 Atmospheric pollutants have both beneficial and detrimental effects on carbon uptake by land ecosystems. Surface ozone (O3) damages leaf photosynthesis by oxidizing plant cells, while aerosols promote carbon uptake by increasing diffuse radiation and ...

Dynamic incentive regulation of diffuse pollution [PDF]
Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, 2019 Diffuse pollution from agriculture and extractive industries reduces air and water quality and contributes to climate change. We consider a setting in which a regulator must incentivize unobserved abatement given that firms have limited liability, and when they can enter and exit.

Combining tree-ring metal concentrations and lead, carbon and oxygen isotopes to reconstruct peri-urban atmospheric pollution [PDF]
Tellus: Series B, Chemical and Physical Meteorology, 2012 In this study, we analysed the tree-ring metal concentrations and isotope ratios of five stands located in three contrasted settings to infer the diffuse air pollution history of the northern part of the Windsor–Québec City Corridor in ...

Soiling and other optical losses in solar-tracking PV plants in Navarra [PDF]
, 2011 Field data of soiling energy losses on PV plants are scarce. Furthermore, since dirt type and accumulation vary with the location characteristics (climate, surroundings, etc.), the available data on optical losses are, necessarily, site dependent.
