Airport Air Quality Monitoring for Smart Airports
Global air travel has increased tremendously in the last decade with easier domestic and intercontinental travel. People are more inclined towards the aeroplane for long-distance travel as it saves time. An increase in Low-Cost Carriers (LCCs) makes air travel cheaper and more frequent. An increase in air travel tends to increase air pollution due to higher fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. ...

Developments in ADMS-Airport to take account of near field dispersion and applications to Heathrow Airport
ADMS-Airport is based on the ADMS-Urban system for modelling urban air quality. In the near field it employs a quasi-Gaussian dispersion model and this is nested within a trajectory model. Aircraft sources are treated explicitly as accelerating jets. Application of the model to air quality calculations was conducted for the Model Inter-Comparison (MIC) Study of Project for the Sustainable ...

Permafrost Thaw: Monitoring Ground Temperature to Assess Climate, Ecological, & Infrastructure Impacts
Permafrost is a critical component of the Earth’s cryosphere and plays a crucial role in regulating the planet’s climate. However, permafrost is vulnerable to changes in temperature, and as global temperatures rise, it is thawing at an alarming rate. This thawing process can lead to a cascade of environmental, ecological, and infrastructure impacts1. Permafrost temperature monitoring ...
