Comparison of 'Top-down' and 'Bottom-up' Analysis of Emission Reduction \Opportunities for CO2 in the European Union

Spatial surrogates for the disaggregation of CORINAIR emission inventories

CORINAIR atmospheric emission inventories are frequently used input data for air quality models with a domain situated in Europe. In CORINAIR emission inventories, sources are broken down over 11 major source categories. This paper presents spatial surrogates for the disaggregation of CORINAIR atmospheric emission inventories for input of air pollutants and particulate matter to grid or polygon...

the impact of explicit instruction of top-down reading strategies on reading comprehension of intermediate efl learners

this study investigated (a) the learners’ existing reading strategy repertoire, (b) the effect of instruction in reading strategies on learners’ strategic performance, and (c) the effect of explicit instruction in top-down reading strategies on reading comprehension ability of intermediate learners. the study was conducted with 40 intermediate efl learners in two groups of experimental and cont...

Presentation of a TOD Index in Urban Areas through Spatial Analyses and HFIS (Case Study: Tehran)

The contemporary world possesses some issues such as urbanism and expansion of cities and these issues which require a specific type of planning. Transit Oriented Development (TOD) planning has emerged as one of the applicable planning methods, which tries to achieve integrated land use and transportation planning. In this study, TOD is conducted at a regional scale using an index measuring TOD...
