A review of hybrid ventilation on humid tropics climate

Soils of the Humid and Sub-humid Tropics

The hydrology of the humid tropics

655 Fresh water is under pressure in the humid tropics from population growth, land use and climate change, all of which are influenced by humans. These pressures are likely to have profound consequences. Here we present a research vision for the humid tropics as an outcome of a community workshop held in Hawaii in March 2011. This report includes various perspectives from the international sci...

Comparative Study on the Influence of Window To Wall Ratio on Energy Consumption and Ventilation Performance in Office Building of Temperate Humid Climate: a Case Study in Rash

The natural ventilation and the energy consumption are very important characteristics in buildings. Representation of the patterns for better natural ventilation performance versus lower increase in energy consumption is significant and useful. This study is simulating an office building in the temperate and humid climate of Rasht in Iran, and calculated the annual ventilation and the energy co...

Designing Agricultural Ecosystems for the Humid Tropics

Warmth, moisture, and constancy are the environmental factors responsible for the potentially high productivity of the humid tropical lowlands. Ironically, they are also the biome’s greatest ecological constraints to agriculture. Chemical weathering increases with temperature and is three to six times faster in the tropics than in the temperate zone (125, 250). This frequently leads to the deve...

Evaluating the Efficiency of Different Cover Forms of the Large Spans in Flowers and Plant Exhibitions Based on the Natural Ventilation Vystem in a Moderate and Humid Climate

Deciding the roof type with a large ventilation spans for uses in the flower and plant exhibitions that can operate beyond the exhibition space functions as it can provide a desirable climate for the growth of its plants, it can be designed and enhanced according to the geographical site of it. Deciding and designing the roof form can prevent dissipations in energy and assets and develops a con...
