Biological consequences of environmental control through housing.
Housing was originally devised as a control of the thermal environment, but numerous other functions have been added with resulting competition and confusion. Current design gives insufficient attention to thermal factors and relies upon supplementary heating and cooling to compensate for faults. These are wasteful of energy, and the exhaust from air conditioners adds to the heat island conditi...
متن کاملOverview: biological consequences of environmental control.

There were 45 (42%) cases of seminoma and 63 (48%) of non-seminomatous germ cell tumours (NSGCT). The median age at presentation was 35 and 30 years respectively. Almost half (56) patients p...
متن کاملConference on biometeorological consequences of environmental controls. Housing: introductory remarks.
About a decade ago I wrote a review of the relations of indoor to outdoor atmospheric conditions (1). In the interval, the major substantive contributions in this field have been in the air quality field. A comprehensive review of this area, covering the entire literature since the 1930's has been published by EPA (2). Another rather interesting monograph has just appeared, in which the meteoro...
متن کاملEvaluation of chemical and biological consequences of soil sterilization methods
Sterilized soils are commonly used for the study of xenobiotic sorption and as an abiotic control in biodegradation experiments. They are also used for the chemical study of nitrogen and carbon cycle processes and the elimination of the biological factors. In this research the effects of different soil sterilization methods such as autoclaving, fumigating and exposure to ultraviolet and microwa...
متن کاملDetermining the Environmental Fate of the Biological Control Organism, Pseudomonas aureofaciens through 16SrDNA Gene Probing
Rationale Biological organisms for the prevention of turfgrass diseases are now available and in widespread use. Biological control is achieved through antagonistic action of one organism toward another such as a pathogen or weed. At present, no genetically engineered organisms are available in the turfgrass industry, however, as advances in biotechnology increase the activity of wild type (nat...
