Impact of pollution on coastal water quality of Thailand
ISBN: 9783639255362 / Angielski / Miękka / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Assessment of the anthropogenic pollution in Coastal Samut Prakarn Province with a focus on the Bang Pu Nature Reserve was undertaken from May 2004 to March 2005 with a view to enhance its educational and conservational potential through future interventions in the Reserve. The baseline conditions were established after analysing the water samples of the study area. It was shown that the study area can be classified under eutrophic conditions. Nevertheless the coastal ecosystem appears to be in a healthy state. Major sources of pollutants affecting the study area were identified and...

Unit Hydrograph
ISBN: 9783639294385 / Angielski / Miękka / 92 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An SDUH model was developed using digital DEM elevation data and land use data collected during a field survey. The SDUH model was applied to a 5km2 agricultural watershed in the Upper Athi river region of the entire Athi river basin. The USGS DEM (30-m) resolution was used to estimate the slope, aspect, flow distance and upstream area for each cell. The watershed was divided into "overland" and "channel" flow cells based on the area upstream above each cell. If the area was larger than the threshold of 1.2km2 (1300cells), the cell was assumed to be dominated by channel flow. ...

Developing Nanoparticles for Decomposition of Toxic Compounds
ISBN: 9783838119533 / Angielski / Miękka / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study has been focused on the development of semiconductor nanoparticles applied in photocatalysis. The photoactivity of the photocatalyst TiO2 under UV light is well known, however, this technique still has limited applications due to the relatively low photoactivity under visible light. There are different methods to increase the photoactivity of a photocatalyst, like the photodeposition of noble metals on the surface of the semiconductor, by doping or by photosensitization. Here the synthesis of different photocatalysts and their stability, which were tested to check the durability...

Modeling and Analysis of Actual Evapotranspiration
ISBN: 9783639291612 / Angielski / Miękka / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Evapotranspiration is one of the important components of the hydrological cycle; its estimation and analysis are crucial for better assessment of the hydrology of natural and reconstructed landscapes. The complexity of the evapotranspiration process have imposed some limitations on previously developed evapotranspiration estimation models. Limited literature exists on the modeling of actual evapotranspiration (AET), which depends on the available soil moisture, and is more complicated than the potential evapotranspiration . This book presents the modeling and analysis of AET using data...

Fate of Pesticides in the Atmosphere: Implications for Environmental Risk Assessment: Proceedings of a workshop organised by The Health Council of the Netherlands, held in Driebergen, The Netherlands,
ISBN: 9789048153299 / Angielski / Miękka / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Global pesticide use is currently estimated at approximately 2. 5 billion kg per year (Pimentel eta/., 1998). To be effective, pesticides need to persist for a certain period of time. However, the longer their persistence, the greater the potential for transport of a fraction of the amount applied away from the target area. Pesticides are dispersed in the environment by water currents, wind, or biota. Pesticides can directly contaminate ground and surface waters by leaching, surface run-off and drift. Pesticides can also enter the atmosphere during application by evaporation and drift of...

Greening Society: The Paradigm Shift in Dutch Environmental Politics
ISBN: 9789048160310 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book shows how the environmental policy pursued in The Netherlands has undergone a revolutionary change: a change referred to as a paradigm shift. A new trend can be detected from top-down governance to an interactive form of governance. This new paradigm assumes that environmental policy can only be realised successfully if it is embedded in a wider balancing process in which both societal and economic interests are taken into account. Parties other than government, such as businesses, non-governmental organisations, and citizens, must become involved in the policy-making process and...

An Institutional Basis for Environmental Stewardship: The Structure and Quality of Property Rights
ISBN: 9789048161669 / Angielski / Miękka / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What is the role of government in environmental politics and policy? The answer to this question used to be relatively clear. Government was to regulate the environmental performance of state and non-state actors, to set standards, impose charges, and establish more or less stringent criteria of acceptable behavior. With the increasing appearance of the issues of globalization and global governance in the political science literature, however, the focus has turned to the role of non-state actors. Academic research and the popular debate have identified business, non-governmental organizations...
