Workshop on Review and Assessment of European Air Pollution Policies
The development of European policies on air pollution prevention is currently in an intensive phase. The European Commission Clean Air for Europe (CAFE) programme is preparing an air pollution strategy and the Convention on Long-range Air Pollution may start a review of the Gothenburg Protocol during 2005. On the 25th-27th of October 2004 a workshop on review and assessment of the scientific basis and tools employed in this policy work was held to provide guidance to the policy development. Future needs of scientific support in a longer perspective were also discussed. A large part of the workshop was focussed on the role of airborne particles. Human health effects caused by exposure to airb...
Air Pollution Modeling and its Application XXI
Recent developments in air pollution modeling and its application are explored here in contributions by researchers at the forefront of their field. The book is focused on local, urban, regional and intercontinental modeling; data assimilation and air quality forecasting; model assessment and evaluation; aerosol transformation; the relationship between air quality and human health and the effects of climate change on air quality. The work will provide useful reference material for students and professors interested in air pollution modeling at the graduate level as well as researchers and professionals involved in developing and utilizing air pollution models.
Visuality of the Anthropocene
This book presents contributions of students of the course "Science Writing and Journalism" of the Department of Communication and Design at Bilkent University in Ankara. They created posters and popular texts about renewable energies and related topics. The contributions are part of an exhibition which will be presented on Renewable Energy Events in five Turkish cities between October 2019 and January 2020 within the scope of the project "POWER: Empowerment of Youth on Renewable Energy for Sustainable Societies" which is funded by the Erasmus+ Program of the European Union (2017-3-TR01-KA205-048402) which aims to encourage young people for a critical dialogue about renewable energy as a contribution to combat climate change.
The Climate Change Playbook
"The simple, interactive exercises in The Climate Change Playbook can help citizens better understand climate change, diagnose its causes, anticipate its future consequences, and effect constructive change. Adapted from The Systems Thinking Playbook, the twenty-two games are now specifically relevant to climate-change communications and crafted for use by experts, advocates, and educators. Illustrated guidelines walk leaders through setting each game up, facilitating it, and debriefing participants. Users will find games that are suitable for a variety of audiences--whether large and seated, as in a conference room, or smaller and mobile, as in a workshop, seminar, or meeting.
Austrian Assessment Report 2014 (AAR14)
Der Osterreichische Sachstandsbericht Klimawandel 2014 (AAR14) stellt einen IPCC-ahnlichen Bericht dar, bestehend aus drei Banden, fur den bestehendes Wissen zum Klimawandel in Osterreich, zu dessen Auswirkungen und den Erfordernissen und Moglichkeiten der Minderung und Anpassung zusammengefasst wird. Der Bericht verfolgt das Ziel, den wissenschaftlichen Kenntnisstand fur Osterreich koharent und vollstandig darzulegen und dies in Form von politikrelevanten Analysen an die Osterreichische Bundesregierung und politische Entscheidungsgremien auf allen Ebenen zu ubermitteln, und will daruber hinaus Entscheidungsgrundlagen auch fur den privaten Sektor und einen Wissensfundus fur akademische Insti...
Cloud Multi-phase Processes and High Alpine Air and Snow Chemistry
Among the chemical and physical processes involved in the transformation of pollutants between their sources and their ultimate deposition, those associated with clouds, aerosols and precipitation must be rated as the most difficult both to study and to understand. This book presents a variety of recent advances in this field, including the properties and composition of aerosol particles, chemical transformation and scavenging processes, the relationship between liquid-phase chemistry and cloud micro-physics, entrainment, evaporation and deposition, trends in high Alpine pollution, transport processes, and developments in instrumentation. This book is Volume 5 in the ten-volume series on Transport and Chemical Transformation of Pollutants in the Troposphere.
Sustainable Development and Higher Education Institutions
Higher education institutions (HEIs) have a unique role and responsibility for the future and for driving the development of a sustainable society. HEIs are charged with the task of fostering sustainability in the leaders of tomorrow, developing solutions and methods for addressing a sustainable future and ensuring that knowledge is contributed to society. HEIs must also ensure that their everyday operations and practices are consistent with a sustainable future, and that they work toward holistically integrating sustainability into both the mission of a university and its daily tasks. This Special Issue builds on papers presented during the 2018 International Sustainable Campus Network Conf...
