Case Study: Impact Analysis of Roof-Top Green Infrastructure on . . . - MDPI This paper presents results from a case study focusing on analyzing impacts of Green Infrastructure (GI) on sensible and latent heat fluxes, urban microclimate and the subsequent water–energy nexus components of an urban infrastructure system The case study, focusing on the campus of a public university in San José, CA, aimed to quantify the pre- and post-conditions for a hypothetical GI
IoT-Based Smart Irrigation Systems: An Overview on the Recent . . . - MDPI Water management is paramount in countries with water scarcity This also affects agriculture, as a large amount of water is dedicated to that use The possible consequences of global warming lead to the consideration of creating water adaptation measures to ensure the availability of water for food production and consumption Thus, studies aimed at saving water usage in the irrigation process
Chemical Waste Management in the U. S. Semiconductor Industry Sustainability has become the biggest concern of the semiconductor industry because of hundreds of high-purity organic and inorganic compounds involved in manufacturing semiconductors not being treated economically The aim of this study was to understand how semiconductor companies manage their chemical wastes, by analyzing the U S Environmental Protection Agency’s Toxics Release Inventory
Urban Wetlands: A Review on Ecological and Cultural Values Wetlands are a critical part of natural environments that offer a wide range of ecosystem services In urban areas, wetlands contribute to the livability of cities through improving the water quality, carbon sequestration, providing habitats for wildlife species, reducing the effects of urban heat islands, and creating recreation opportunities However, maintaining wetlands in urban areas
Underwater Optical Wireless Communications: Overview - MDPI Underwater Optical Wireless Communication (UOWC) is not a new idea, but it has recently attracted renewed interest since seawater presents a reduced absorption window for blue-green light Due to its higher bandwidth, underwater optical wireless communications can support higher data rates at low latency levels compared to acoustic and RF counterparts The paper is aimed at those who want to
Remote Sensing Techniques for Water Quality Monitoring: A Review - MDPI Freshwater resources are facing increasing challenges to water quality, due to factors such as population growth, human activities, climate change, and various human-made pressures While on-site methods, as specified in the USGS water quality sampling handbook, are usually precise, they require more time, are costly, and provide data at specific points, which lacks the essential comprehensive
Challenges and Solutions for Global Water Scarcity - MDPI Climate change, global population growth, and rising standards of living have put immense strain on natural resources, resulting in the unsecured availability of water as an existential resource Access to high-quality drinking water is crucial for daily life, food production, industry, and nature However, the demand for freshwater resources exceeds the available supply, making it essential
Recent Advances in Positive Photoresists: Mechanisms and Fabrication - MDPI Photoresists are fundamental materials in photolithography and are crucial for precise patterning in microelectronic devices, MEMS, and nanostructures This paper provides an in-depth review of recent advancements in positive photoresist research and development, focusing on discussion regarding the underlying mechanisms governing their behavior, exploring innovative fabrication techniques
A Review of Precision Irrigation Water-Saving Technology under . . . - MDPI Water is considered one of the vital natural resources and factors for performing short- and long-term agricultural practices on Earth Meanwhile, globally, most of the available freshwater resources are utilized for irrigation purposes in agriculture Currently, many world regions are facing extreme water shortage problems, which can worsen if not managed properly In the literature, numerous
