Background and Objective: One of the most important goals for urban environmental management system is the monitoring of air quality. Allocating optimum air quality monitoring stations (AQMS), is a key factor in establishing effective and accurate air quality monitoring program. The objective of this study was to determine optimal allocation for AQMS in Karaj. Materials and Methods: Based on t...
Introduction: The location of sanitary landfills is one of the most important environmental issues in cities. If the design of landfills is not appropriate, it will threaten human health. This study aimed to detect a suitable location for a landfill in Ilam, Iran. Materials & Methods: A questionnaire and consultation with experts were used to conduct the research. For this purpose, three ma...
BACKGROUND Pregnant women exposed to traffic pollution have an increased risk of negative birth outcomes. We aimed to investigate the size of this risk using a prospective cohort of 970 mothers and newborns in Logan, Queensland. METHODS We examined two measures of traffic: distance to nearest road and number of roads around the home. To examine the effect of distance we used the number of roa...
BACKGROUND Particulate air pollution has been consistently linked to increased risk of arterial cardiovascular disease. Few data on air pollution exposure and risk of venous thrombosis are available. We investigated whether living near major traffic roads increases the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), using distance from roads as a proxy for traffic exposure. METHODS AND RESULTS From 1995 ...
During the construction of road networks large area of forests and rangelands will be destroyed in the road path and its margins. This process causes massive amount of soil and rock move from its site and on adjacent lands will be accumulated, that causes increasing environmental degradation. One of the most important problems due to forest roads making is increasing of different erosion forms ...
The perceived inclination of slopes is generally overestimated. We claim that overestimation depends on the use of impoverished stimuli and on the distance between the observer and an inclined surface. In experiment 1, participants reported the perceived inclination of a set of urban roads from two different viewing distances. Observers did not overestimate the perceived inclination of slopes w...
Estimating the population density of deer is an essential task for public agencies that plan a herd reduction. Distance sampling has been increasingly utilized to estimate population density, and is used by the National Park Service to estimate white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) densities throughout the eastern United States. Many of these surveys are conducted along public roads due to...
Sight distance obviously affects safety. Although this statement is universally accepted, the relationship between sight distance and safety has not yet been successfully quantified. One reason for this is the obvious strong correlation between sight distance and alignment. Where roads have no vertical or horizontal alignment change, the available stopping sight distance (SSD) is not limited by...
road construction is one of the effective factors for ecological changes which affects diversity and species composition in forest roads edges. this research was performed in kheirud forest to evaluate herbaceous diversity and tree regeneration establishment in different distances from road edge. for this purpose, we sampled herbaceous and tree species regeneration in 0,5,10,25, 50 and 100 m di...
OBJECTIVE To study the relationship between light absorption measurements of PM2.5 at various distances from heavy traffic roads and diesel vehicle counts in Mexico City. MATERIALS AND METHODS PM2.5 samples were obtained from June 2003-June 2005 in three MCMA regions. Light absorption (b abs) in a subset of PM2.5 samples was determined. We evaluated the effect of distance and diesel vehicle c...
