چکیده
It is well known that CO2 one of the main greenhouse gases. The traffic non-electric vehicles contributor to emissions this gas in cities, enhancing urban heat island effect and increasing dangers global warming. changes amount across city occur on a small scale, easily measured by person moving around city, whether it be walking or cycling. A handheld sensor capable recording gas, temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity was mounted bicycle analyse local variations couple cycling route transects Barcelona municipality within its metropolitan area. results presented here show variability, with some concentration up 90ppm over distances few hundred metres (less than 1km). influence parks, forests, gardens absorbing has also been identified. measurements obtained technique demonstrate using as scientific vehicle viable way distribution suburban areas.

A Cable-Borne Tram for Atmospheric Measurements along Transects
A system to make atmospheric measurements from a moving trolley suspended by a stretched cable has been developed. At present, these measurements consist of wind velocity, temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide concentration, though other sensors may be added. The track consists of cable segments attached to turns mounted on standard triangular towers. Using this approach, the path can be a ...
متن کاملIn situ and photogrammetric measurements of avalanche crown transects
We present results on the geometry and depth distributions for transects along the crowns of small to large avalanches. Previous research suggests that power laws in aggregate distributions of crown depths result from observers recording maximum depth. We therefore studied individual crown transects to obtain information about the parent distributions, using in situ and photogrammetric measurem...
متن کاملOverall D. melanogaster Cohort Viability as A Pollution Indicator of the Atmospheric Air of Urban Landscapes
The method of air pollution level evaluation of urban landscapes on the basis of D. melanogaster cohort analysis has been suggested. The method implies the binding to the landscape areas of the city. Within each landscape area traps and cultivators for D. melanogaster have been installed in sanitary-protective zones of various enterprises as well as on the background territory with the least le...
متن کاملMeasurements of Atmospheric Antiprotons
We measured atmospheric antiproton spectra in the energy range 0.2 to 3.4 GeV, at sea level and at balloon altitude in the atmospheric depth range 4.5 to 26 g/cm. The observed energy spectra, including our previous measurements at mountain altitude, were compared with estimated spectra calculated on various assumptions regarding the energy distribution of antiprotons that interacted with air nu...
