Risk analysis of urban aquatic systems due to heavy metals turns significant due to their peculiar properties viz. persistence, non-degradability, toxicity, and accumulation. Akkulam Veli (AV), an urban tropical lake in south India is subjected to various environmental stresses due to multiple waste discharge, sand mining, developmental activities, tourism related activities etc. Hence, a compr...

Urban planners are concerned to design the city in a way that supports quality of life. To catch how settings elements space influence our subjective perception is difficult evaluate, especially since objective measures normally calculated at arbitrary scales. better focus on actual surrounding individuals, people-centered reference areas needed. The current study presents comparison three diff...

Where trade is decentralized and information is imperfect, an urban housing market should be organized into separate market segments. Units in more active market segments should sell at a premium if households value asset liquidity. Evidence from the Hong Kong housing market strongly supports the joint hypothesis of market segmentation and transaction-based liquidity effects in the housing mark...

Reflectance characteristics of human settlements influence energy fluxes in the physical environment as well as our ability to monitor urban growth with satellite-based sensors. Spectral heterogeneity at the scales of 10 to 30 meters complicate the traditional land cover classifications derived from moderate resolution satellite imagery in urban and suburban areas. In this study we consider pop...

The growth of cities represents huge problems for modern societies. Monitoring, analysing and modelling the urban dynamic call for detailed mapping of urban land-use. Traditionally, urban land-use mapping is based on orthophotos and satellite images, but deriving land-use from remote-sensing alone is not satisfactory. The Danish Building & Dwelling Register is a database containing detailed inf...

The database presented here was collected by Antoniucci and Marella to analyze the correlation between the housing price gradient and the immigrant population in Italy during 2016. It may also be useful in other statistical analyses, be they on the real estate market or in another branches of social science. The data sample relates to 112 Italian provincial capitals. It provides accurate inform...

Abstract Extracting fresh water from Malaysia’s atmosphere which stores a wealth of can be conducted via the air condensation. In this study, miniature atmospheric generator (AWG) system named Mini-AWG was designed and constructed using 6 thermoelectric cooler (TEC) units, mesh-shaped filter ventilation fan. Subsequently, experimented for several days under outdoor climate at River Engineering ...
