There is little doubt that energy demand is expected to grow rapidly in most developing countries over the next decades. For Bangladesh, economic growth has been accelerating and it is expected that the population will grow from an estimated 150 million people in 2008 to 200 million by 2050, with almost half of the population living in urban areas. An examination of options for meeting the expe...

Regional hydrological modeling in ungauged regions has attracted growing attention in water resources research. The southern Tibetan Plateau often suffers from data scarcity in watershed hydrological simulation and water resources assessment. This hinders further research characterizing the water cycle and solving international water resource issues in the area. In this study, a multi-spatial d...

INTRODUCTION Lower social class has higher lung cancer incidence, largely attributable to higher smoking prevalence among the lower social classes. We assessed the magnitude and time dimension of potential impact of targeted interventions on smoking on socioeconomic inequalities in lung cancer. METHODS Using population dynamic modelling, we projected lung cancer incidence up to 2050 in lowest...

BACKGROUND Climate change and the concurrent change in wildfire events and land use comprehensively affect carbon dynamics in both spatial and temporal dimensions. The purpose of this study was to project the spatial and temporal aspects of carbon storage in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) under these changes from 2006 to 2050. We selected three emission scenarios and produced simulatio...

Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are manufactured for use as substitutes for ozone-depleting substances that are being phased out globally under Montreal Protocol regulations. While HFCs do not deplete ozone, many are potent greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change. Here, new global scenarios show that baseline emissions of HFCs could reach 4.0e5.3 GtCO2-eq yr 1 in 2050. The new baseline (or...

در این پژوهش، تغییرات زمانی تپ‌های لیزری 2CO TEA که از اتاقکی حاوی گاز 6SF با فشار mbar 150-10 عبور می‌کند، شاریدگی‌های انرژی و فشارهای گازی مختلف بررسی شده است. نشان داده است برای هر شاریدگی، قطع معینی وجود دارد قطع، میخه تپ به طور کامل حذف می‌شود، درحالی دنباله دربرگیرنده کسر قابل توجهی اولیه آن است، برجامی‌ماند. شواهد تجربی برآمده داده‌های بیناب‌سنجی FTIR، گسست چندفوتونی مولکول‌های را پاسخگو...

We have been studying the influence of ICT diffusion on environmental problems. From previous study " s results, we selected three important ICT applications. These are an " SCM (Supply Chain Management) system " , which reduces resources used in the industry sector, an " advanced traffic utilization system & teleworking " , which increases energy use efficiency and decreases the frequency of t...
