Abstract:
In this paper, four typical building roof modules, i.e., sedum linear module, lightweight planting soil module, water-retaining board module and XPS module, were experimentally investigated by using the guarded hot box under real weather condition in Guangzhou, China. The testing results were compared and analyzed regarding to three main properties of the roof module, i.e., the top and bottom surface temperatures of the modules, air temperature inside the inner box of the guarded hot box and temperature attenuation characteristics for the thermal insulation of the modules. It was found that the sedum linear module performed well in the thermal insulation property under the typical summer weather condition. The analysis results could be used to assist in the application of the green roof module, and contribute to the energy conservation of the buildings.

Abstract:
Exposure to leisure noise among the youth has grown into a public health concern. It was reported that attitudes and behaviours are essential factors in determining how well someone takes care of their hearing. An educational hearing conservation programme (EdHCP) can be an effective way to educate and to induce behavioural changes. The objective of this study is to develop and to validate a Malay version of EdHCP known as Bisinglah BEB! (in English: HEY! It’s Loud!) targeting the Malaysian youth. The present study comprised of four phases, namely; i) content and module development, ii) content validation, iii) content modification, and iv) pre-testing. Five learning modules were developed; Module One (Sound energy), Module Two (Anatomy and hearing mechanisms), Module Three (Hearing loss), Module Four (How loud the sound), and Module Five (How to protect our hearing). The module and contents of the programme possessed good content validity result (S-CVI/Ave value at 0.935). Several modifications were done accordingly, and agreement among the participants in pre-testing was excellent (95-100%). Bisinglah BEB! was informative and produced a high content-validity result. However, the effectiveness of the programme in changing attitude, knowledge, and behaviour towards noise exposure needs to be investigated before the real implementation in Malaysian youth.

Abstract:
Most of the six species of sea turtles in Indonesian waters have seen a decline, mainly due to human exploitation. One of the efforts to prevent the extinction of this pre-historic reptiles is the establishment of conservation centers. In Bali, one of the conservation centers actively involved in the efforts to conserve turtles is the Turtle Conservation and Education Center (TCEC). As more foreign tourists who are aware of turtle conservation come to this place, guides at TCEC are expected to able to provide sufficient explanation about turtles and their environment in English. They should provide a thorough insight of the turtle's anatomy, behavior, and reproductive cycle. This study aimed at developing English module for turtle conservation guides at TCEC. In developing the module, a framework of material development model was adopted. The framework consists of some stages namely, needs analysis, formulation of goals and objectives, development of English learning materials, and evaluation. The results of this study provide some implication and contributions for English language teaching.

Rev. 79: 143–180, 1999. — Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) are serine-threonine protein kinases that are activated by diverse stimuli ranging from cytokines, growth factors, neurotransmitters, hormones, cellular stress, and cell adherence. Mitogen-activated protein kinases are expressed in all eukaryotic cells. The basic assembly of MAPK pathways is a three-component module conserved from yeast to humans. The MAPK module includes three kinases that establish a sequential activation pathway comprising a MAPK kinase kinase (MKKK), MAPK kinase (MKK), and MAPK. Currently, there have been 14 MKKK, 7 MKK, and 12 MAPK identified in mammalian cells. The mammalian MAPK can be subdivided into five families: MAPKerk1/2, MAPKp38, MAPKjnk, MAPKerk3/4, and MAPKerk5. Each MAPK family has distinct biological functions. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, there are five MAPK pathways involved in mating, cell wall remodelling, nutrient deprivation, and responses to stress stimuli such as osmolarity changes. Component members of the yeast pathways have conserved counterparts in mammalian cells. The number of different MKKK in MAPK modules allows for the diversity of inputs capable of activating MAPK pathways. In this review, we define all known MAPK module kinases from yeast to humans, what is known about their regulation, defined MAPK substrates, and the function of MAPK in cell physiology.

Abstract:
Gossypium hirsutum L. (Upland cotton) has an evolutionary history involving inter-genomic hybridization, polyploidization, and subsequent domestication. We analyzed the developmental dynamics of the cotton fiber transcriptome accompanying domestication using gene coexpression networks for both joint and homoeologous networks. Remarkably, most genes exhibited expression for at least one homoeolog, confirming previous reports of widespread gene usage in cotton fibers. Most coexpression modules comprising the joint network are preserved in each subgenomic network and are enriched for similar biological processes, showing a general preservation of network modular structure for the two co-resident genomes in the polyploid. Interestingly, only one fifth of homoeologs co-occur in the same module when separated, despite similar modular structures between the joint and homoeologous networks. These results suggest that the genome-wide divergence between homoeologous genes is sufficient to separate their co-expression profiles at the intermodular level, despite conservation of intramodular relationships within each subgenome. Most modules exhibit D-homoeolog expression bias, although specific modules do exhibit A-homoeolog bias. Comparisons between wild and domesticated coexpression networks revealed a much tighter and denser network structure in domesticated fiber, as evidenced by its fewer modules, 13-fold increase in the number of development-related module member genes, and the poor preservation of the wild network topology. These results demonstrate the amazing complexity that underlies the domestication of cotton fiber.

Abstract:

Cape Town is a unique city. It has a global biodiversity hotspot, in the midst of an urban area. Historically, nature conservation practice excluded and marginalized certain groups of people based on their race and class. This has led to peoples&lsquo
disconnection from nature. Rapid biodiversity loss is a major concern for conservators. In the last three decades, there has been a paradigm shift in conservation practice in certain parts of the world. The Cape Flats Nature programme based in Cape Town followed suit and aimed to stimulate a bottom-up participatory approach to conservation and replace the traditional top-down management strategy. The programme was tasked to reconcile the challenges of complex and conflicting relationships between urban poverty, unequal access to resources and biodiversity conservation. This study was aimed at investigating the relationships between conservation management, community partners and urban conservation areas. These relationships are vital for the progression of new conservation practice in places where people live and work. In addition, the transformative aspects of conservation in relation to social inclusion and the shift in conservation approaches was investigated. The study was conducted at five of Cape Town&lsquo
s nature reserves, Edith Stephens Wetland Park, Macassar Dunes, Harmony Flats, Wolfgat and Witzands Aquifer Nature Reserves. Data collection included in depth interviews with key informants from various conservation organizations, the Cape Flats Nature Programme team, the managers of the selected reserves and community partners. Others included observational methods and analysis of secondary data. It was found that relationships between conservators and local communities are not easily created and maintained but relationships regardless of its depth are equally beneficial to communities and the conservators. Balancing social needs with conservation needs is a struggle for conservators but many successes came in cases where this balance was realized. In addition, the transformation of conservators&lsquo
identity has changed community perceptions of conservation practice holistically. Although, many informants feel that transformation continues to remain unequal.

Abstract:

This dissertation explores local people's framing of externally driven biodiversity conservation approaches in the context of transfrontier conservation initiatives. It uses data from the Madimbo corridor, a specific locality within the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Conservation Area, situated to the northeast of South Africa along the South Africa-Zimbabwe boundary. It shows that livelihoods, historical experiences with external interventions and exclusion from policy-making processes and programme implementation influence local strategies for engaging with external interventions. Thus, an analysis of framing of external interventions at a local level should establish the following: the role of natural resources in sustaining local livelihoods
local historical experiences with an external intervention
iii) the nature of multi-level actor interactions from local resource dependent people, to national, regional and global actors involved in or affected by an intervention. The study uses a detailed case study of Bennde Mutale village to trace local people&rsquo
s ideas, ways of speaking and actions in response to the implementation of a large-scale transfrontier conservation initiative. The study finds that local livelihoods play a central role in local responses to the changes that transfrontier conservation bring upon people's lives. Many see further exclusion, while some also see and hope for a restoration of the socio-cultural border region. The globally significant biodiversity - to be conserved for &lsquo
future generations&rsquo
&ndash
at the same time constitutes the natural resources that sustain local people&rsquo
s livelihoods. Further, local livelihoods are more diverse than is commonly acknowledged in literature advocating for transfrontier conservation. This lack of acknowledgement of local diversification contributes to the main observation made in this study: that current processes of transfrontier conservation end up replicating and re-inventing the multiple forms of exclusion that have characterised state conservation practices for over a century. While transfrontier conservation enables the freer movement of wildlife, it in fact further constrains the movements of people whose mobility within less closely controlled border regions remains centrally important to survival. At the same time, state actors come into the area with contradicting and conflicting demands ranging from the beneficial advocacy role for land rights to the enforcement of conservation through fences and game rangers, experienced as a direct infringement on livelihood possibilities. The study concludes that there is a need to rethink transfrontier conservation interventions. The diversity of local livelihood approaches needs to be considered more centrally and clearer understanding needs to be developed of how the promises of opportunities, betterment of lives and increased human mobility actually unfold in practice. In order to succeed and deliver on site - not only to high-class tourists seeking to view unique biodiversity but to local people - transfrontier conservation efforts need to engage multiple actors directly from the ground up and throughout the process of policy-making, programme conceptualisation and implementation.

Abstract:

Communal land tenure reform in Zambia is the overarching subject of study in this thesis. It is an important issue across southern Africa, raising questions of governance, livelihood security and conservation. WIldlife is a 'fugitive' and 'mobile' resource that traverses the spatially fixed tenure of communal lands, national parks and public forest reserves. The management of wildlife therefore requires that spatially defined proprietorial rights accommodate wildlife's temporal forage use. Land may bebounded in tenure, but if bounded by fences its utility as wildlife habitat is undermined. If land is unfenced, but its landholder cannot use wildlife then it is more a liability than an asset. Africa's terrestrial wildlife has enormous biodiversity value but its mobility requires management collaboration throughout its range, and the resolution of conflicting ecological and economic management scales. The paper does not aim to describe and explain the internal communal system of tenure over land and natural resources but rather how the communal system interacts with the state and the private sector.

The aim of the research was to identify what female and male farmersthink are the best strategies to enhance the role of conservation farming as a buffer against social, economic and environmental hazards, and a means of ensuring livelihood sustainability and food security. The study also aimed at coming up with information useful to policy and other decision makers on how to improve adoption of these technologies. The empirical component of the research included a questionnaire survey of one hundred and fifty two(152) selected households in one identified ward in Insiza District, focus group discussions and semi-structured interviews with key informants and in-depth interviews of individual male and female members of a few selected farming households from the sampled population. The desktop portion of the study used secondary data from non-governmental organizations (NGOs), government and other stakeholders involved in conservation farming. Collected data was then disaggregated by gender and analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Perception statements that emerged as significant in chi-square tests of independence were be subjected to factor analysis and weighted factor scores from factor analysis were then used as independent variables in binary logistic regression analysis. The study concluded that both practising and non practising farmers were of the opinion that conservation farming was good though they indicated that information on conservation farming was not readily available The study found out that most farmers agreed on the possible positive effects of CA in addressing livelihood challenges effected by hazards such as HIV and AIDS and environmental hazards such as declining soil fertility but it had is labour intensive therefore is not suitable for people affected and infected by HIV and AIDS...

Abstract:

Very little protection has been afforded to wetlands1 and estuaries within the South African legislative framework.2 These ecosystems are extremely important and valuable to mankind, the flora and fauna.3 The continued destruction of wetlands and estuaries is the most heinous act of environmental vandalism on a worldwide scale today.4 Wetland and estuarine loss has been accelerated and extended by human activities such as mining,5 urbanisation,6 drainage, river diversion,7 groundwater abstraction as well as climate change.8 Time is running out for so many critically important sites and for the world at large.9 Without wetlands and estuaries the biosphere10 cannot continue to do its essential work.11 Despite, the importance of a range of resources and services12 which wetlands and estuaries provide, these have been taken for granted by humans.13 As a result hereof, the maintenance of wetlands and estuaries has received low priority in many countries.14 This is further precipitated by the lack of interest and ignorance which result in the conversion of wetlands and estuaries into man-made structures.15 Research has shown that the lack of information and the awareness of the importance of these ecosystems has the made the conservation legislation for these ecosystems a toothless dragon.16 People are becoming increasingly aware17 of the loss of wetlands and estuaries, once in abundance and now merely shadows of their former nature.18 To investigate this lack of protection, the starting point would be the global level.

Abstract:
Energy conservation measures currently employed by U.S. Navy surface combatants require labor-intensive, time-consuming data entry from which fuel curves are generated to drive each ship’s propulsion plant machinery alignment. From these rudimentary curves optimal transit speeds, configurations, and refueling requirements are determined for specific operational demands and mission profiles. This paper describes an automated process for optimizing shipboard fuel consumption rates by integrating advanced diagnostic and maintenance optimization techniques with the onboard data information system. The automated energy conservation decision support system described herein addresses fossil fuel propulsion (gas turbines, steam turbines, and diesel engines), power generation and auxiliary systems. The software tool consists of diagnostic, fuel management, and maintenance modules. The diagnostic module tracks and trends the health state of components that use fuel (and their supporting systems) to provide real-time information on the impact of their current condition on fuel consumption. The fuel management module automates data collection and the generation of fuel curves through open-systems architecture communication with ICAS. It also enables planning by recommending an optimal machinery configuration to minimize fuel consumption based on either speed or time to destination constraints. Additionally, a fuel management module provides real-time information on fuel consumption and optimizes the load of each component based on its health condition, operating requirements and the number and condition of similar components. Finally, overall decision support comes from the maintenance management module that tracks the maintenance actions being performed on fuel consuming systems and recommends future maintenance to be performed (from a fuel conservation standpoint) based on current health information.

Abstract:
This paper presents an experimental study and theoretical interpretation of two-phase flow in a closed loop. The objective of this work is to find the optimum flow rate with respect to the thermal design power (amount of heat to be rejected). We assume that forced-convection boiling characteristics are explained based on mass and energy conservation, and claim that our proposed coefficient (C ≡ QL / Q : a ratio of amount of evaporated liquid to the flow rate) indicates the optimum flow rate for wide variation of evaporator-shapes and working fluids. In order to verify our model, we have measured the thermal resistance of evaporator with respect to heater input power for various flow rates. Hydrofluoro ether (HFE) and Fluorinert™ refrigerants were used as the working fluid in the experiment. Here flow rate of 40∼120ml/min and thermal design power of 50∼200W were controlled by the pump and by the heater, respectively. We observed that the coefficient resulted in the optimum flow rate is almost the same regardless of working fluids and evaporator shapes. The data which indicates the optimum flow rate were quite well reproduced by our proposed theory when the value of this coefficient is C ≈ 0.7∼0.95. For the demonstration, we designed the assembled-type two-phase cooling module with the optimum flow rate based on our model, and we observed that the evaporator had a relatively small thermal resistance of 0.1K/W.

Abstract:
Study case is situated in Caras Severin county. To solve theoretical problems of movement of water in the river Barzava, it requires modelling of water flow in this case. Numerical modelling was performed using the program MIKE11. Advanced computational modules are included for description of flow over hydraulic structures, including possibilities to describe structure operation. The Hydrodynamic (HD) module is the nucleus of the MIKE 11 modelling system and forms the basis for most modules including Flood Forecasting, Advection-Dispersion, Water Quality and Non-cohesive sediment transport modules. The MIKE 11 HD module solves the vertically integrated equations for the conservation of mass and momentum, i.e. the Saint-Venant equations. The input data are: area plan with location of cross sections; cross sections topographical data and roughness of river bed; flood discharge hydrograph. Advanced computational modules are included for description of flow over hydraulic structures, including possibilities to describe structure operation. After simulation with MIKE 11 result the water level in each cross section.

Abstract:
A numerical solution of the melting problem of a semitransparent gray, medium contained in a closed heated spherical shell is presented in this study. The influence of all the fundamental energy transfer mechanisms on the melting dynamics of the phase change medium (PCM) has been analyzed, in order to extend the convectional natural convection-dominated model and to expand the limited literature in the thermal energy storage (TES) area at high operating temperatures (>800°C). A two-dimensional, axisymmetric, transient model has been solved numerically. The discrete ordinate method was used to solve the equation of radiative transfer and the finite volume scheme was used to solve the equations for mass, momentum and energy conservation. The effect of the optical thickness of the medium on the melt fraction rate, total and radiative heat transfer rates at the inner surface of the shell has been analyzed and discussed. Also the influence of thermal radiation has been quantified by performing comparisons between the pure conduction and the simultaneous conduction and radiation models. The results showed that the presence of thermal radiation enhances the melting process, particularly during the solid phase sensible heating process in the multi-mode heat transfer model. Also, it was found that the contribution of the radiant energy exchange is one order of magnitude smaller than the convective transport process.

Abstract:
Abstract The effects of cross flow mixed convection on discrete mounted heat sources on a circuit board of finite thickness has been analyzed in this study. In this type of flow, the orthogonal free and forced convection result in a three dimensional boundary layer flow. A numerical model is developed to simulate the actual device considering heat generation in the integrated circuit components, conduction of heat through the board and heater modules, and convection of heat from the board and module surfaces to the fluid stream. The significance of the factors that affect heat transfer rate and surface temperatures of these components were analyzed. The equations for the conservation of mass, momentum, and energy were solved in their non-dimensional form to study the velocity and temperature profiles. The numerical model identified important dimensionless parameters such as Richardson number, Prandtl number, source spacing, distance from leading edges, and the ratio of solid-to-fluid thermal conductivities. A parametric study revealed their influences.

Abstract:
Models that predict distributions of species by combining known occurrence records with digital layers of environmental variables have much potential for application in conservation. Through using this module, teachers will enable students to develop species distribution models, to apply the models across a series of analyses, and to interpret predictions accurately. In addition to its original components, this module features an updated and condensed synthesis document ("A Brief Introduction to Species Distribution Modeling for Conservation Educators and Practitioners," which provides theoretical and practical guidance for the expanding field of species distribution modeling. The synthesis is supplemented by a new exercise where learners create and optimize species distribution models using Wallace, an R-based GUI (Graphical User Interface) application for ecological modeling that currently focuses on building, evaluating, and visualizing models of species niches and distributions. Additionally, there are four new PowerPoint presentations on species distribution models (the history and theory, data and algorithms, and evaluating SDMs), as well as a presentation on how to use Wallace. The original Synthesis, "Species' Distribution Modeling for Conservation Educators and Practitioners," introduces learners to the modeling approach, outlines key concepts and terminology, and describes questions that may be addressed using the approach. A theoretical framework that is fundamental to ensuring that students understand the uses and limitations of the models is then described. Additionally, it details the main steps in building and testing a distribution model, and describes three case studies that illustrate applications of the models. This module is targeted at a level suitable for teaching graduate students and conservation professionals.

Abstract:
Of the 6,500 or so different mammal species on earth, approximately 1,406 are from one group—bats! In other words, over 20% of known mammal diversity are bats. This module covers the basic biology and ecology of bats, the ecosystem services they provide, the threats they face globally, and how conservation actions can mitigate these threats. Students focus more locally in an accompanying exercise, Field Guide to the Bats in Your Neighborhood, where students are asked to research and present on bats in their region. In the case-study based exercise, Bats in the City? An Exploration of Acoustic Monitoring of Bats, students analyze acoustic data to answer ecological questions. Overall, students are introduced to bat ecology and conservation, urban biodiversity, bat echolocations/vocalizations, and the monitoring of these species through analyzing acoustic recordings with specialized software, Kaleidoscope. These materials were made in association with City Bats, a program in New York City designed to teach students more about the scientific process and urban biodiversity.

Full text
Abstract:
This exercise introduces students to the complexities of conservation in rural tropical landscapes. It introduces the concepts of payments for environmental services (PES), trade-offs and synergies between agricultural land-uses and society’s needs, and introduces students to tropical land-uses and common rural stakeholders in the tropics. The module has two main parts. In Part 1, students learn about a new reforestation program in the fictional country of Nueva Puerta and must debate how to direct the reforestation program: towards poverty alleviation, export production, water protection, or habitat connectivity. In Part 2, students break into small groups to negotiate the placement of PES in a tropical land-use simulation game. The land-use simulation is designed to show students some of the realities and limits of tropical conservation. In the final phase of the exercise, students reflect on their experiences through discussion questions. Optionally, they can write a reflective essay and/or vote which real-world reforestation project they are interested in supporting as a class.

Full text
Abstract:
AERMOD is the EPA recommended dispersion modeling tool for evaluating impacts from typical compressor station engine sources. This is a companion document to two previous PRCI reports that addressed AERMOD Fortran compiler issues and a subsequent report that examined AERMOD Plume Volume Molar ratio Method (PVMRM) issues that lead to conservative model over-predictions. This report further explores AERMOD plume rise and volume estimates as a possible cause or contributor of model over-prediction and resulting plume chemistry concerns. AERMOD over-prediction bias has significant negative implications for permitting new sources, permit renewal for existing sources, and NAAQS compliance analyses, where modeled impacts are compared to the NO2 NAAQS at or beyond the facility fenceline. AERMOD conservatism also impacts state agency State Implementation Plans and resulting control strategies. Permitting requirements associated with the new 1-hour standard could impose unnecessary controls, overly stringent controls, and a significant compliance burden. Where mitigation may be warranted, costs will escalate due to �over-control� in response to model conservatism and deficiencies in model performance.

Full text
Abstract:
In 2010, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) adopted a 1-hour nitrogen dioxide (NO2) National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) of 100 parts per billion (ppb) or approximately 188 micrograms per cubic meter (�g/m3) that is considerably more stringent than the longstanding annual standard of 53 ppb (100 �g/m3). New or modified compressor units may be encumbered by federal or state regulatory requirements to demonstrate compliance with the NO2 NAAQS using AERMOD, EPA's dispersion model, because the new NAAQS greatly reduces the compliance margin. Compressor stations have been increasingly requested to model source contribution to other nearby permitting actions through no new action on their part. Model conservatism and performance concerns has limited NO2 NAAQS compliance options necessitating the need to improve model estimates for reciprocating engine drivers at pipeline compressor stations. AERMOD was developed and validated with a primary focus on larger sources with taller stacks, such as electric utility boilers, which results in model conservatism for sources such as compressor stations with shorter stacks that result in near-field modeled impacts. This report summarizes additional analyses conducted and reviewed with EPA that were completed to assess and reduce model conservatism and improve overall model performance. This report presents a more detailed analysis of modeled versus observed results, model performance, and recommendations for model improvements. These analyses also evaluated other ongoing efforts (e.g., PRIME2 downwash improvements and integration of the ADMS chemistry module an alternative in AERMOD) using the data collected from this program may be used to assess these revisions. This final report summarizes the deeper dive into the NOx chemistry, dispersion, and downwash performance assessments within AERMOD based on the Balko dataset. Specific recommendations are made throughout this report to improve overall model performance.

Full text
Abstract:
With the introduction of the more stringent short-term 1-hour air quality NO2 standard, the use of redundant, overly conservative assumptions (e.g. use of permit allowable emissions � hourly rate based on maximum annual tons per year) is no longer appropriate and potentially misinforms and obfuscates modeling compliance demonstrations. One of the challenges of modeling oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions is determining the amount of total NOx that will exist in the form of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) at a receptor. Combustion source emissions usually contain mostly nitric oxide (NO), which is not a regulated criteria pollutant. The Plume Volume Molar Ratio Method (PVMRM) is a higher fidelity �Tier 3� model option contained within the USEPA AERMOD dispersion model for the purpose of reducing the inherent conservatism associated with predicting the NO2 fraction within a plume. Tier 3 approaches must be approved on a case-by-case basis by the regulatory agency prior to approval. The American Petroleum Association (API), Council of Industrial Boiler Owners (CIBO), Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), AF and PA (American Forest and Paper Association) and other trade associations and stakeholders have undertaken initial investigatory efforts into the Plume Volume Molar Ratio Method (PVMRM) algorithm and model chemistry formulation. The initial results of this work were presented at the EPA 10th Modeling Conference on March 13th through 15th, 2012. Section 320 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) requires a conference to be held every 3 years. The purpose of the conference is to provide an overview of the latest features of the agency�s preferred air quality models and to provide a forum for public review and comment on how the agency determines and applies air quality models in the future. This report provides a technical description of the current state of the Plume Volume Molar Ratio Method (PVMRM) currently used by EPA in the AERMOD model and the Air Quality Modeling Guidance contained in Appendix W. This paper examines the conservative assumptions used by EPA that lead to conservative model over-predictions, work that was recently presented at the 10th Modeling Conference on PVMRM, and gaps and shortcomings for existing reciprocating compressors. This report also summarizes the initial findings from these efforts and identifies potential gaps (e.g. shorter stacks and lower in-stack NO/NO2 ratios) in the analysis as it may relate to existing reciprocating engine drivers.
