Urban air pollution due to industrial emission and vehicular emission due to automobiles has aggravated the problem of environmental pollution. Plants are known to act as sink for air pollutants. Planting of trees and shrubs in the form of greenbelt around the industry is an effective way for abatement of pollution and improvement of environment and is well recognized throughout the world. This...

The Swift/Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) hard X-ray transient monitor provides near real-time coverage of the X-ray sky in the energy range 15−50 keV. The BAT observes 88% of the sky each day with a detection sensitivity of 5.3 mCrab for a Center for Research and Exploration in Space Science and Technology (CRESST) and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, MD 20771, USA Universities Space R...

We present and evaluate an agent based model (ABM) of land use change at the rural-urban fringe, comparing its performance to a mathematical model of the same process. Our simplified model was developed in Swarm using agents with heterogeneous preferences and a landscape with heterogeneous properties. The context of this work is a larger project that includes surveys of the preferences of resid...
