When speaking about harm to the human body in the term of pollution, indoor pollution is equally harmful as the outdoor pollution. Volatile Organic Compounds contribute to the toxic oxidants which are harmful to the ecosystem, human health and atmosphere. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are major group of air pollutants which play critical role in atmospheric chemistry. It contributes to toxi...

The research project illustrates how performance-driven design tools can be conducted as an architectural methodology that suggests innovative approach to a habitation shell in extreme environmental conditions without human assistance. This study attempts use data revealed by NASA and its habitat requirements develop conceptual for form then simulate it with Mars analyze the shell's structural ...

Past research has demonstrated how local-scale human impacts—including reduced water quality, overfishing, and eutrophication—adversely affect coral reefs. More recently, global-scale shifts in ocean conditions arising from climate change have been shown to impact Here, we surveyed benthic reef communities at 34 U.S.-affiliated Pacific islands spanning a gradient of oceanic productivity, temper...

Ecosystems around the globe are facing irreversible impacts due to climate change, habitat destruction, hunting, and an ever-increasing human population. Estimating densities of species across their geographical range helps us understand natural variation anthropogenic effects on assess effectiveness existing conservation measures. Various methods have been used produce accurate precise populat...

There has been an increasing interest in seafloor exploitation such as mineral mining in deep-sea hydrothermal fields, but the environmental impact of anthropogenic disturbance to the seafloor is poorly known. In this study, the effect of such anthropogenic disturbance by scientific drilling operations (IODP Expedition 331) on seabed landscape and megafaunal habitation was surveyed for over 3 y...
