Описание: This book describes the observation of urban climates in Latin-American and their relationships with urban sprawl, the economic emergence of Latin American countries, social segregation, urban ecology, disasters and resilience. The chapters include contributions dealing with urban heat islands, local climate zones, thermal comfort, air pollution, extreme climate index, green infrastructure, health issues and adaptions based on the socio-economic background of urban areas.This book revises the role of urban planning and environmental governance, highlighting the singularities in climate adaptation policies in developing countries.
Описание: Over the years we extended the topics on natural wetlands (such as role of wetlands in the landscape or wetland restoration and creation) and during the 6th workshop held at T?ebo?

Описание: The first full synthesis of modern scientific and applied research on urban climates, this book shows how we can moderate the undesirable consequences of urban development and help create more sustainable cities. It is an ideal resource for students and researchers in climatology, urban hydrology, air quality, environmental engineering and urban design.
Описание: This book provides an extensive, worldwide overview of wastewater treatment via constructed wetlands with horizontal sub-surface flow (HF CWs). Special attention is paid to assessing the use of this treatment technology in individual countries.
Описание: Natural and constructed wetlands play a very important role on the landscape and their ecological services are highly valuable. In fact, some wetland types are regarded as one of the most valuable ecosystems on the Earth. Water management, including flood water retention, biomass production, carbon sequestration, wastewater treatment and biodiversity sources, are among the most important ecological services of wetlands. The book is aimed at the use of constructed wetlands for wastewater treatment and for the evaluation of various ecosystem services of natural wetlands. Special attention is paid to the role and potential use of wetlands on the agricultural landscape. The book presents up-to-date results of ongoing research and the content of the book could be used by wetland scientists, researchers, engineers, designers, regulators, decision-makers, universities teachers, landscape engineers and landscape planners as well as by water authorities, water regulatory offices or wastewater treatment research institutions.
Описание: Presenting the latest research in wetland science, this volume explores the use of constructed wetlands for wastewater treatment, wetland hydrology and evapotranspiration. Additional topics include the affects wetlands have on landscape temperature and the chemical properties of wetland soils.
