The subject of this article is a presentation multi-scale passive and active solar shading systems in urban areas. This research assumes the hypothesis that insolation are interdependent their integration urbanized space affects city biome. Attention has been paid to role innovative solutions used field ur ban insolation, such as heliostats development future eco-architecture eco-urban planning...

Zhang Y., Feng M.M., Yang J.Y., Zhao T.N., Wu H.L., Shi C.Q., Shen Y. (2015): Effects of soil cover and protective measures on reducing runoff and soil loss under artificial rainfall. Soil & Water Res., 10: 198–205. The hazards from wind, sand, and soil erosion caused by human activities, such as residue slopes in abandoned urban mines, have resulted in a vicious circle of environmental degrada...

In recent years, various proposals have emerged for the construction of “eco-cities,” specially designed communities with an explicit environmental focus that often incorporate technologically sophisticated building design, comprehensive master-planning, renewable energy sources, and efforts to achieve resource self-sufficiency. This trend, however, is subject to intense criticism among some pr...

1. We review theoretical and empirical studies to identify instances where evolutionary processes significantly affect the dynamics of populations, communities and ecosystems. 2. Early theoretical work on eco-evolutionary dynamics was concerned with the effect of (co)evolution on the stability of two-species predator–prey systems and the occurrence of character displacement in simple competitiv...

This article explores informal environmental education (EE) experiences at eco-attractions. A consortium of three UK-based environmental charities designed an eco-attraction-based EE program aiming to inspire responses to environmental change. Over six months, educators at six eco-attractions delivered this two-day program to 430 young people. This article conveys qualitative insights into lear...

The world is now facing difficulties such as climate change, energy consumption and economic crisis and the green growth is commonly used as a solution to overcome that difficulties. To achieve the green growth eco-efficiency is a very important key. Studies on eco-efficiency have been done by others using financial value of product which cannot show the real value of the product. In this study...

8 Saving of bath chemicals and freshwater consumed within metal finishing systems and the reduction of wastewater produced can be important steps towards more sustainable processes. Furthermore, the application of regenerators is usually energy intensive. Accordingly, in an “eco–eco” (ECO) trade-off, importance should be given to both economic benefits as well as to several ecological measures....

Ecological environment quality comprehensive evaluation evaluate different cells’ ecological environment quality, on the basis of region eco-environment investigation , the indexes and math methods selected according to the region, to discover the problems and put forward comprehensive father measures. In electronic government spatial decision-making assistant systems, Estimate the region’s eco...

developing reliable and eco-friendly processes for the synthesis of metallic nanoparticles is an essential step in the field of application of nanotechnology .using natural factories such as biological systems is a way of developing such processes. nowadays, the synthesis of silver nanoparticles is very common due to its numerous applications in different fields. the synthesis of these nanopart...
