Can Urban Design Play a Role in Urban Sustainability? International developments / local challenges
There is widespread recognition today that we are living in a period of profound technological, social, economic and political change, and that this process of change is accelerating. Yet, there is less certainty about the nature and meaning of these changes—whether they should be regulated or liberalized, supported or resisted— and the kind of world they are leading to. Despite these uncertai...
متن کاملInfluence of Low Frequency Variability on Climate and Carbon Fluxes in a Temperate Pine Forest in Eastern Canada
Carbon, water and energy exchanges between forests and the atmosphere depend upon seasonal dynamics of both temperature and precipitation, which are influenced by low frequency climate oscillations such as: El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), Arctic Oscillation (AO), Eastern Pacific Oscillation (EPO) and the Pacific-North American (PNA). This study investigate...
متن کاملChallenges and developments of bioretention facilities in treating urban stormwater runoff; A review
Bioretention or rain garden is a preferable low impact development (LID) approach due to its characteristics which reflect natural water cycle processes. However, this system is still little understood and quite complicated in terms of design and implementation due to many technical considerations. Hence, this paper gives a review of the challenges and developments for the use of bioretention f...
متن کاملDynamics of low-temperature acclimation in temperate and boreal conifer foliage in a mild winter climate.
To provide baseline data for physiological studies of extreme low-temperature (LT) tolerance in boreal conifers, we profiled LT stress responses, liquid nitrogen (LN(2))-quench tolerance, and sugar concentrations in foliage of boreal-temperate species pairs in the genera Abies, Picea and Pinus, growing in an arboretum in a temperate oceanic climate from August 2006 through April 2007. The borea...
متن کاملEessential Oil Composition of Achillea filipendulina, A. arabica and A. eriophora Cultivated under Temperate Climate in Iran
The Achillea L. genus has a wide distributional range, and the differences in oil composition may be affected by different environmental factors such as soil mineral fertilization, the climate conditions and the culture site. To evaluate the effect of temperate climate on content and chemical combination of essential oil of Achillea filipendulina Lam, A. arabica Kotschy and A. eriophora DC., t...
