Towards a Fairer Green city: measuring unfairness in daily accessible greenery in Chengdu’s central city

Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering
Urban green spaces exert beneficial effects on both individuals and communities. However, as urban sprawl intensifies, socioeconomic disparities widen, and populations burgeon, the concepts of green fairness and environmental justice confront substantial

Street view versus remote sensing greenery – comparison of two exposure metrics across urban-rural settings

Geo-spatial Information Science
Urban greenery, as a critical urban landscape component, plays an important role in improving the living environments’ and residents’ well-being. Previous studies have predominantly adopted satellite image-based vegetation measurements.

Bionic Solar‐Powered Heavy Metal Trap for Eco‐Friendly Sludge Drying and Simultaneous Electricity Generation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Herein, we propose a solar‐powered heavy metal trap (SPHT) for sludge disposal. The indoor experiments demonstrated that the sludge water content decreased from 90 % to 31 %, coupled with a decrease in heavy metal content to 6 % at most. Furthermore, the designed SPHT generated an initial potential of 0.10 V, and monitoring this hydrovoltaic potential ...

Real-Time Green View Index Assessment: AI-Driven Analysis of Urban Vegetation Using Dashcam Videos

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The Green View Index (GVI) is a valuable metric for assessing visible greenery in urban areas and improving urban planning. However, current GVI calculation methods, which predominantly rely on manual assessments through on-site visits or Google Street ...

Hydrothermal Embedding of Pd Single Atoms Into SnO2 for Efficient CO Oxidation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By applying hydrothermal regulation to SnO2‐supported PdO, we achieve atomic dispersion of Pd into the SnO2 lattice, which activates the lattice oxygen neighboring Pd atoms to generate oxygen vacancies and facilitates subsequent O2 activation, thereby promoting CO oxidation to proceed via a low‐energy‐barrier MvK pathway while avoiding CO poisoning ...

Assessment of urban sprawl repercussions on rural greenery and potential environmental conflicts in northeast Tegucigalpa

City and Environment Interactions
Unplanned urban growth in major cities may lead to urban sprawl into surrounding rural communities. Urban sprawl gradually transforms the rural landscape into built-up environments dominated by anthropogenic structures. Understanding the effects of urban

Thermal comfort in the historical urban canyon: the effect of innovative materials [PDF]

, 2017
Urban heat island (UHI) can considerably affect the thermal quality of the urban environment, especially within urban canyons, that have typically low sky view factor and limited surface heat re-emission capability.

Electric Field‐Induced Hole‐ and Electron‐Type Flat Bands in Twisted Double Bilayer Graphene

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The electronic structure of twisted double bilayer graphene is visualized using angle‐resolved photoemission spectroscopy with micrometer spatial resolution at twists of 3.1∘$^\circ$ and 6.0∘$^\circ$ as a function of gate voltage. Tunable hybridization effects and flat band formation occurs between valence and conduction band states due to a finite ...
