概括
城市绿地对空气质量有微弱而可变的影响. 虽然树木覆盖可以减少大规模的污染,但街道层面的影响取决于城市形式和通风.
科学领域:
- 环境科学 环境科学
- 城市生态城市生态学
- 大气化学 大气化学
背景情况:
- 城市植被改善空气质量的普遍信念正受到复杂的,取决于背景的发现的挑战.
- 之前的实验和建模研究显示,绿色空间对城市空气污染物度的影响有不同的结果.
研究的目的:
- 调查城市绿地变化与欧洲和美国空气污染物度之间的关系.
- 在各种空间尺度上区分总绿地与树木覆盖对空气质量的影响.
主要方法:
- 利用来自2615个监测站 (2010-2019) 的关于城市绿地变化和空气污染物度的卫星数据.
- 对二氧化 (NO2),颗粒物 (PM10,PM2.5) 和臭氧 (O3) 的空气质量数据进行分析.
- 评估了街道 (15-60米),区 (120米) 和城市 (16,000米) 尺度上的绿色空间的影响,考虑了气象因素.
主要成果:
- 环境NO2,PM10和PM2.5度显著下降 (-3.14% y-1),而O3增加 (+0.5% y-1),表明成功的减排政策.
- 总的来说,绿色空间对空气污染的总体影响是微弱和高度可变的,可能会对街道通风产生负面影响.
- 增加的树木覆盖显示出与空气污染的负相关性,特别是在O3和PM方面.
- 降水,湿度和风速等气象驱动因素对空气质量的影响比绿色空间更大.
- 绿色空间的标准偏差增加与空气污染在各个尺度上的微小平均下降率为0.8%相关.
结论:
- 城市绿化可以在市区到城市的规模上提供适度的空气质量改善,主要是通过增加树木覆盖.
- 街道层面的空气质量影响是复杂的,根据城市形式,植被限制通风,可能会受到负面影响.
- 这些发现强调了规模和特定植被类型在评估城市绿化改善空气质量的有效性方面的重要性.

Bioremediation
18.4K
Bioremediation is the use of prokaryotes, fungi, or plants to remove pollutants from the environment. This process has been used to remove harmful toxins in groundwater as a byproduct of agricultural run-off and also to clean up oil spills.

Design Example: Sustainability in Concrete Building
167
As the construction industry moves towards more eco-friendly practices, concrete's adaptability and its ability to incorporate sustainable features make it a key material in the drive towards greener building solutions.
There are multiple approaches to achieve sustainability in a commercial concrete building. For instance, construct a concrete parking area under the building, utilizing pervious concrete paver blocks in open areas to facilitate rainwater collection through an underground...

Overview of Nitrogen Metabolism
7.9K
Nitrogen is a very important element for life because it is a major constituent of proteins and nucleic acids. It is a macronutrient, and in nature, it is recycled from organic compounds and stored in the form of ammonia, ammonium ions, nitrate, nitrite, or nitrogen gas by many metabolic processes. Many of these metabolic processes are carried out only by prokaryotes.
The largest pool of nitrogen available in the terrestrial ecosystem is gaseous nitrogen (N2) from the air, but this...

The Calvin Benson Cycle
4.5K
Ribulose 1,5- bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCo) is a critical enzyme that catalyzes carbon dioxide assimilation during photosynthesis. However, it is an inefficient enzyme, having an extremely slow catalytic rate. A typical enzyme can process about a thousand molecules per second; however, RuBisCo fixes only around three-carbon dioxides per second. Photosynthetic cells compensate for this slow rate by synthesizing very high amounts of RuBisCo, making it the most abundant single...
