Window Design in Ardabil Traditional Houses for Conservation of Energy

window design in ardabil traditional houses for conservation of energy

windows have a major role on absorbing solar energy, reducing heat loses, and adding their values in traditional houses in ardabil. the main aim of this research is to study windows as elements of beautification and production of clean and free energy. we discern that windows can be designed to respond to the regional climates. to explore that, we review four samples of the windows in the famou...

Digital technology and the conservation of nature

Digital technology is changing nature conservation in increasingly profound ways. We describe this impact and its significance through the concept of 'digital conservation', which we found to comprise five pivotal dimensions: data on nature, data on people, data integration and analysis, communication and experience, and participatory governance. Examining digital innovation in nature conservat...

Technology for nature conservation: An industry perspective

Information age technology has the potential to change the game for conservation by continuously monitoring the pulse of the natural world. Whether or not it will depends on the ability of the conservation sector to build a community of practice, come together to define key technology challenges and work with a wide variety of partners to create, implement, and sustain solutions. I describe why...

Cryptic species as a window on diversity and conservation.

The taxonomic challenge posed by cryptic species (two or more distinct species classified as a single species) has been recognized for nearly 300 years, but the advent of relatively inexpensive and rapid DNA sequencing has given biologists a new tool for detecting and differentiating morphologically similar species. Here, we synthesize the literature on cryptic and sibling species and discuss t...
