Abstract:
Environmental context Atmospheric chlorine radicals can affect the chemical composition of the atmosphere through numerous reactions with trace species. In urban atmospheres, the reactions of chlorine radicals can lead to effects such as increases in ozone production, thus degrading local and regional air quality. This review summarises the current understanding of atmospheric chlorine chemistry in urban environments and identifies key unresolved issues. Abstract Gas phase chlorine radicals (Cl•), when present in the atmosphere, react by mechanisms analogous to those of the hydroxyl radical (OH•). However, the rates of the Cl•-initiated reactions are often much faster than the corresponding OH• reactions. The effects of the atmospheric reactions of Cl• within urban environments include the oxidation of volatile organic compounds and increases in ozone production rates. Although concentrations of chlorine radicals are typically low compared to other atmospheric radicals, the relatively rapid rates of the reactions associated with this species lead to observable changes in air quality. This is particularly evident in the case of chlorine radical-induced localised increases in ozone concentrations. This review covers five aspects of atmospheric chlorine chemistry: (1) gas phase reactions; (2) heterogeneous and multi-phase reactions; (3) observational evidence of chlorine species in urban atmospheres; (4) regional modelling studies and (5) areas of uncertainty in the current state of knowledge.

Abstract:
Abstract This essay examines urban atmospheres and emotions in the 1898 essay collection London Impressions by British writer, poet and suffragist Alice Meynell. I argue atmospheres are spatialised emotions and investigate the atmospheric dimension of Meynell’s text and her impressions, through a vocabulary of immersion and movement. Within her own manipulation of a ‘visual’ vocabulary, Meynell transforms impressions into atmospheres, the visual into sensorial, moving from the painterly to atmospheric experience, notably through the medium of fog and smoke and other climate indicators. I argue urban atmospheres are the main feature the text brings forth (even through – and perhaps especially because of – the filter of the written word). By probing the application of the history of emotions’ methodologies within architectural and urban history, I argue the concept of ‘atmosphere’ is a productive analytical category to examine visual and textual sources.

Abstract:
In this paper I seek to initiate a research agenda on mega-urban airs that comprehends their atmospheres as simultaneously meteorological and affective ( McCormack, 2008 ), an agenda which seeks to apprehend megacity air/atmospheres in their vitality, corporeality and expressiveness. This paper attunes to the close and expressive substances that make up immersion in a material-affective ecology of a place, the qualities of the city that seep and imbue its material and biological fabric with affect. There is a growing body of work and literature to aid us from traditions in continental aesthetic theory, French urban sociology and architecture, and an emergent cultural geographic field of atmospheric enquiry. The paper develops such an approach to megacity air in three main ways. First, air tells us about difference. In the testimony of pollutants and choking effluvium, an analysis of air reveals who belongs and who does not, who is deserving and who is not in a constellation of megacity inequality. The atmosphere puts the megacity apart from other urban and political forms. Second, closely related to the issues that circulate around a geopolitics of verticality and the technocratic security concerns of volumetric conceptions of territory, air/atmospheres constitute an environmental ecology of security threats and crisis that thwart megacity life and justify environmental policies as ‘security’ (see Zeiderman, 2013). Third, the paper argues how megacities are increasingly productive of secessionary atmospheres, often by removal and exclusion, which are not entirely separate from other atmospheric security concerns.

Abstract:
Within the context of recent debates around urban atmospheres, this article examines the situatedness and partiality of urban experiences. Drawing on an ethnographic study of the Smithfield Market area, a neighbourhood undergoing a period of rapid urban regeneration as part of the ‘Culture Mile’ in the City of London, we explore how different individuals experience the changing feel of place. By focusing on the felt body, the article analyses the ways in which individuals with different attachments to the neighbourhood respond to the impending urban change and draw on selective temporal modalities of atmospheres in order to make specific claims to place. In particular, we identify three temporal modalities of atmospheres: the selective feel of the past, the contentious present feel and the ambivalent future feel. The article thus argues that studies of urban atmospheres need to pay more attention to the manifold bodily capacities, personal and social histories which mediate and position in diverse ways how places are experienced. More generally, this article makes an intervention into debates on urban atmospheres by analysing empirically how the variable interactions between sensory and temporal qualities produce diverse atmospheric constellations for different individuals.

Abstract:
In this debate, we claim that few Egyptian scholars are considering issues of phenomenological critiques addressing adequately the atmosphere of cities and places, and that Egyptian urban design education does not address the possibility of teaching through commentary of this kind. This article examines the dilemma of using the term “atmospheres” in urban design education. It theorises the nature of this relationship, developing an analytical framework creating the architecture of the city as similar as the artworks through which to investigate them related through their aspects—ideas, themes, and dramatic text—and those overarching effects of the technical elements. The question is: how can one use the artworks in urban design teaching? This article discusses the atmospheres in many artworks of Western and Egyptian thought to explore the effect of the architecture of cities in creating the atmospheres of the cities. The conclusion aims to reach some of the lessons learned by analysing artworks that have achieved a different atmosphere in specific places.

Abstract:
This paper examines how the combined prism of contemporary art and the notion of atmosphere may offer alternative perspectives on our encounters with places and practices of surveillance. Specifically, this article investigates the atmospheres of surveillance surfacing in the video installation Safe Conduct (2016a) by British contemporary artist Ed Atkins. The artwork recreates the well-known situation of going through an airport security check. Through a combination of visual narrative and a soundscape blending the sounds of the conveyor belt and X-ray machines with heavy breathing and Ravel’s Boléro, the work builds up an uncanny anticipation of something awful. Death and violence linger at its edges, and a disquieting atmosphere fills the exhibition space. The objective of the article is twofold: First, it explores the shifting and ambiguous atmospheres produced by contemporary surveillance practices through an immersive reading of the artwork Safe Conduct. Second, and connected to the first, it offers an experimental methodology of written vignettes responding to the embodied, aesthetic experience of atmospheres of surveillance. The article concludes that being more sensitive to the atmospheres of surveillance in our environment can give us a space to think critically about how these atmospheres affect us, how they are absorbed bodily, and how they attune our being: how surveillance is “in the air.”

Full text
Abstract:
Quasi-continuous measurement of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and isomers of xylene in northern England has been performed using an automated thermal desorption - gas chromatography - flame ionisation detector (TD-GC-FID) system. The TD-GC-FID system was mounted in a mobile laboratory, together with a TEOM (Tapered Element Oscillating Microbalance) system for particulate monitoring, and a weather station. Both systems have been applied to urban and suburban sites in order to examine the behaviour of BTEX aromatics at these localities, under a range of boundary layer environments. Measurement of BTEX aromatics and particulate matter has also been performed within a bus depot, a site which was effectively isolated from the free boundary layer overnight, to contrast the behaviour of BTEX in sunlit and non-sunlit atmospheres. Time series analysis of the concentration ratios of individual BTEX aromatics has been performed and diurnal seasonality has been demonstrated at a number of sites. Significant differential removal of individual BTEX aromatics has been found to occur overnight. Relative removal rates have been measured for this period, and values indicate that accepted tropospheric transformation mechanisms of the BTEX aromatics are not responsible. The available experimental and theoretical evidence collected in this research serves to support the supposition that a physical process, which is related to atmospheric temperature, volatility of individual BTEX aromatics, and pressures of individual BTEX aromatics, governs nocturnal differentiation of the concentration of BTEX aromatics. A postulated effect, which may contribute to nocturnal differential, is preferential absorption of particular BTEX aromatics to a liquid organic carbon phase, which has been shown to be associated with diesel carbonaceous combustion aerosol. The latter supposition has been partially corroborated by the findings of a separate study exploring the composition of carbonaceous combustion aerosol by GCMS, XRF, DTA, DSC, and FTIR.

Full text
Abstract:
Within the discipline of urban planning and design, this thesis introduces urban atmos-pheres as a theoretical concept, interlinking the urban dweller’s perception of the urban environment with the disposition of social interaction. The aim is to research how urban environments, such as main streets, are being perceived through different senses and which urban atmospheres are disposing social interaction. Framed by the literature within the discipline, the conducted case study within this thesis is revealing the multisensory perception of streets as well as a vision-dominance. Observations and interviews in Barer Strasse in Munich suggest that the interplay of multiple sensory stimuli as well as small businesses on ground floors are creating a lively atmosphere, thereby enhancing social interaction. Despite the vision dominating the perception, this thesis argues for a multi-sensorial approach, including smelling, feeling and hearing within the urban planning and design discipline to create lively cities by strengthening the social function of streets through creating atmospheres that enhance social interaction.

Abstract:
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are key precursors to ozone and particulate matter, two of the most important air pollutants. Air quality interventions have successfully reduced the release of short chain VOCs in urban areas. The increased use of diesel vehicles has created an increase in the direct emission of longer chain VOCs. However, these compounds are not considered as part of air quality strategies and there are few atmospheric measurements of them to date. This thesis details continuous measurements of VOCs in London, a developed megacity, using comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatography. Analysis of this large suite of VOC measurements have shown that the higher carbon number species emitted from diesel vehicles can dominate gas phase reactive carbon in cities with a significant diesel fleet. Comparison of these real-world observations with emissions inventories has highlighted that there is a significant under prediction of the emissions of higher carbon number species. This presents a considerable policy challenge; the focus must now switch to VOCs released from diesel as this vehicle type is increasingly replacing gasoline world-wide. Further analysis of the London data has provided evidence of both anthropogenic and biogenic emission sources. The measurement of the higher carbon number species has allowed for OH reactivity to be more accurately modelled. Detailed analysis of the ethanol observations provided direct evidence that the use of bio-ethanol blended gasoline in the UK is having an impact on the composition of the atmosphere. The combination of heart-cut and comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatography into a single instrument has made the measurement of both small and large chain VOCs possible. This instrument compares well to existing instrumentation and when deployed to a rural location (Bachok, Malaysia) provided hourly time-resolved measurements of C5-C13 VOCs.

Full text
Abstract:
In recent decades, urban natures have formed illuminating grounds for the biophysical, aesthetic, political and socio-economic transformation of postindustrial cities. In the face of the looming threats of manifold environmental crises, there is an increasing sense of urgency, within multiple realms of public and political discourse, to enhance metropolitan natures. Indeed, today’s growing importance of blue and green amenities addresses essential city services such as mobility, recreation and biodiversity. At present, the forms of urban natures are highly diversified; they include leisure spaces such as parks and allotments, feral spaces such as wastelands or spontaneous vegetation growing alongside railway tracks, as well as cemeteries and other interstitial spaces along watercourses. Hence, understanding the public value of urban natures requires a consideration of their socio-spatial complexity, their design features, management practices, property relations and accessibility. Urban natures, however, are also characterised by their temporal dimensions. Yet, temporal concerns have rarely been systematically addressed in urban studies research. In order to address this shortcoming, the dissertation offers an investigation of the temporality of urban natures. Drawing insights on the literatures of urban political ecology and atmosphere studies, it explores how time operates within and constitutes life in two riverbank spaces of Turin – the Italian, prototypical one-factory-town – in uneven and multifold ways. Making use of walking, as a daily practice and tool for political critique, and unstructured informal conversations, the research develops an in-depth ethnographic approach to the study of the entanglements between sociopolitical processes and the sensory world, understood in terms of everyday atmospheres. Departing from an understanding of environmental change centred on the social, the meteorological and the affective, the investigation focuses on the processes through which the issue of degrado (decay, blight) mediates humanenvironment relations, and unravels the ways in which riverbank spaces are shaped and framed by non-linear processes of development and socio-ecological change. In doing so, the research proposes an epistemological reassessment of the ambiguous notions of ‘waste’ and ‘blight’ space, by explaining how normative, temporal frames reinforce discursive divisions between urban and natural processes, and reproduce the moral geographies of human and nonhuman relations, which contribute in many ways to degradation. The research ultimately contributes to formulate a different language through which to capture the tenacious effects of processes of degradation and territorial stigma; it engenders a sensitivity to the politics of knowledge production, particularly in relation to multi-species life experience, and the landscapes and subjectivities that are created in the Anthropocene.

Full text
Abstract:
Entre 1860 et 1930, Berlin connaît un cycle de croissance sans précédent : tandis que sa population est multipliée par huit, sa superficie est multipliée par cinquante. Le temps d’une génération, elle devient une très grande ville. Sans équivalent en Europe, ce gigantesque saut d’échelle suscite non seulement un doute quant à la viabilité de cette forme urbaine nouvelle, mais il bouleverse également le type d’expériences que l’on y fait au quotidien. Pour des millions de citadins, il s’agit en effet de composer avec des phénomènes inédits tels que le surpeuplement résidentiel, la promiscuité dans les transports, l’allongement des temps de parcours entre domicile et travail, les risques d’accident de la rue, l’accélération des rythmes ou encore l’artificialisation des ambiances urbaines. Déstabilisée par cette mutation, la société allemande s’engage sur la voie d’une double adaptation : adaptation de la très grande ville aux citadins, adaptation des citadins à la très grande ville. Tandis que la première est favorisée par des politiques portant sur l’amélioration de l’habitat, la réintroduction de la nature en ville ou encore la prévention des accidents de la rue, la seconde est permise par l’acquisition spontanée par les citadins de nouvelles compétences routinières pour tout à la fois se côtoyer en situation de congestion, se déplacer dans un environnement mécanisé ou encore faire face au trop-plein de sollicitations sensorielles. Même si les graves crises qui touchent l’Allemagne à partir de 1914 en perturbent le cours, un processus de normalisation de la vie métropolitaine s’observe donc, qui invalide en partie les doutes nés avec l’urbanisation explosive
Between 1860 and 1930, Berlin underwent an unprecedented growth cycle: while its population increased eightfold, its area increased fiftyfold. In the space of one generation, it became a very large city. This gigantic leap in scale, unparalleled in Europe, not only raised doubts about the viability of this new urban form, but also changed the kind of everyday experiences one had in the city. For millions of city dwellers, it was a matter of coping with new phenomena such as residential overcrowding, crowded transport, longer journey times between home and work, the risk of street accidents, the acceleration of rhythms and the artificialisation of urban environments. Destabilized by this spatial and social mutation, German society embarked on a twofold adaptation process: an adaptation of the very large city to the city dwellers, and an adaptation of the city dwellers to the very large city. While the former was promoted by policies to improve housing, reintroduce nature into the city, and prevent street accidents, the latter was made possible by the spontaneous acquisition of new routine skills by city dwellers to cope with congestion, to evolve in a mechanized environment, and to deal with an overload of sensory stimuli. Even if the serious crises that affected Germany from 1914 onwards disrupted the course of the city, a process of normalization of metropolitan life can thus be observed, which partly invalidates the doubts that had arisen with the explosive urbanization

Full text
Abstract:
Atmospheric mercury deposition, known to be a major source of mercury to aquatic and terrestrial environments, was studied at an urban site in Orlando, FL. Precipitation sampling was conducted from September 2003 to May 2006 at a Mercury Deposition Network site located on the University of Central Florida campus. Weekly rainfall and mercury wet deposition data were gathered from this site, which provided the framework of data for this study. Historical mercury wet deposition data from several sites in Florida were used to develop a regression model to predict mercury deposition at any location in Florida. Stormwater runoff from a 2-acre impervious surface at this study area was monitored during the spring and summer of 2005. Runoff water quality was analyzed to characterize mercury dry deposition. Atmospheric monitoring was also conducted during this period to study the interaction of atmospheric constituents on wet and dry deposition patterns. Spatial and seasonal trends for the entire state suggest 80% of Florida's rainfall and mercury deposition occur during the wet season. A strong linear correlation was established between rainfall depth and mercury deposition (R2 = 0.8). Prediction equations for the entire state, for both wet and dry seasons, were strongly correlated with measured data. The results of two unique methods to quantify dry deposition were similar at this site during this study period. Runoff monitored at this site contained significant levels of mercury, primarily in particulate form (58%). The vast majority of particulate mercury was flushed from the surface during storm events, while significant dissolved fractions remained. Runoff mercury concentrations were consistently higher than rainfall mercury, suggesting dry deposition accounted for 22% of total mercury in runoff. Atmospheric monitoring at this location showed gaseous elemental mercury was the dominant form (99.5%) followed by reactive gaseous mercury (0.3%) and particulate mercury (0.2%). Comparison of the contributions of wet and dry deposition suggested 80% of total mercury deposition was wet deposited during this study, while dry deposition accounted for the remaining 20%. Statistical correlations revealed rainfall scavenging of reactive gaseous mercury was the main factor controlling dry deposition.

Abstract:
Throughout history, the theatre has played a decisive part in urban space configuration, not only because of the location of theatre buildings within the city. Outdoor performances in squares, streets and community facilities have also assumed an essential role in the organisation of public space. In this sense, touring theatre must be understood as a resource for transforming and revitalising cities. Festivals such as Avignon, Bilbao and Tàrrega are clear examples of how theatre can appropriate the urban or architectural context and generate new atmospheres. The study of these three cases aims to show how performing practice finds or makes its place in the city, adapting itself to existing urban structures and enhancing their value. In addition, the purpose is also to analyse some buildings and public places that have been designed with an evident scenographic vocation. From Piazza di Sant’Ignazio (Rome) to Can Sau (Olot, Girona), several constructions are conceived as street stages, where everyday life becomes a live performance.

Abstract:
This pilot study examines how lighting can support people’s well-being in urban environments by designing lighting projections using biophilic principles and conducting a mixed-method assessment. Four biophilic projections were designed to induce positive feelings including relaxation as well as four non-biophilic patterns for comparison. All eight patterns were tested on five participants using electroencephalogram (EEG) quantitative methods as well as qualitative surveys using an adapted Discrete Emotions Questionnaire with ratings and open questions. The EEG results showed 75% of the biophilic patterns had a positive emotional response as compared to the control whereas, 50% of the non-biophilic patterns showed an expected negative emotional response compared to the control. Additionally, the qualitative questionnaire demonstrated that biophilic patterns had a 135% more positive result than the control and 417% more positive than non-biophilic patterns. The EEG analysis particularly provides a novel way to consider EEG testing in the context of lighting atmospheres and emotions to support well-being.

Abstract:
La ciudad de México históricamente ha concentrado una parte importante de la población y la actividad económica del país, su territorio agrupa la mayor planta industrial y de servicios, junto a su correspondiente equipamiento social, administrativo y cultural, condición que ha logrado cimentar como resultado de un transitar entre modernidades, y donde su base territorial, producto de distintos ejercicios de planeación, ha sido fundamental aun con sus límites. Pese a esos atributos, la ciudad muestra una serie de problemas de carácter social donde sobresalen las contradicciones suscitadas en sus periferias, ya que junto a espacios con buenos niveles para habitar, se desarrollan otros sin los mínimos necesarios; y si bien han existido loables trabajos de planeación urbana, éstos no han encontrado ambientes propicios para su buen desarrollo, lo anterior, debido a los efectos generados por un neoliberalismo que privilegia minorías, y que da cuerpo a una postmodernidad desigual. Mexico City has assembled a large part of the country’s population and of its economic activities. Industries and services are to be found in its territory, along with corresponding social, administrative and cultural infrastructure. Such condition has been strengthened thanks to the city’s transition throughout modernities, transforming a territory that continues to be essential. However, in spite of these features, the city shows a series of social problems, especially in the outskirts of the city. Whereas certain areas have adequate livable conditions, others develop without the very basic services. Despite important urban planning projects, proper atmospheres to favor their development have not been found. All of this is the product of a neoliberalism privileging a few people and giving way to unequal postmodernity.

Abstract:
Lima and Madrid present two different urban-territorial realities, however, both capitals have in recent years adopted urban development plans with a focus on improving air quality. The research analyses the plans of both cities (Plan A for Madrid; Plan Met 2040 and the Action Plan for Lima) with the intention of verifying whether both meet the requirements established in 2021 by the WHO Global Guidelines on Air Quality. The difference between the two cities also generates different approaches to air pollution: while Madrid concentrates its measures on improving sustainable roads and reducing the number of private vehicles in some areas of the city, Lima focuses on regulating vehicle emissions and improving fuel quality. Keywords: healthy city, air quality, atmospheric pollution, urban planning. Lima y Madrid presentan dos realidades urbano-territoriales diferentes, sin embargo, ambas capitales en los últimos años se han dotado de planes de desarrollo urbano con enfoque de mejoramiento de la calidad del aire. La investigación analiza los planes de ambas ciudades (Plan A para Madrid; Plan Met 2040 y el Plan de Acción para Lima) con la intención de verificar si ambos cumplen con los requisitos establecidos en 2021 por las Directrices mundiales de la OMS sobre la calidad del aire. La diferencia entre las dos ciudades genera también enfoques diversos en materia de contaminación del aire: mientras Madrid concentra sus medidas para mejorar la vialidad sostenible y reducir la cantidad de vehículos privados en algunas zonas de la ciudad, Lima se centra en la regulación de las emisiones de los vehículos y la mejora de la calidad del combustible. Palabras clave: ciudad saludable, calidad del aire, contaminación atmosférica, planificación urbana.

Abstract:
Este artigo apresenta a análise da iluminação artificial urbana como elemento facilitador da percepção do processo de construção e configuração das cidades. Trata-se de uma parcela da pesquisa que objetiva subsidiar diretrizes para um Plano Diretor de Iluminação Municipal, proposto como instrumento de gestão auxiliar no processo de estruturação das paisagens das cidades contemporâneas. Atualmente, são duas as metodologias de iluminação urbana recorrentes: o movimento de origem francesa L’Urbanisme Lumière e o já global City Beautification. A atuação da iluminação artificial no projeto urbano permite oferecer uma diversidade de leituras como revelações dos tempos da cidade, conferindo a sua paisagem as entonações desejadas. Constata-se que o projeto de iluminação artificial pode criar condições de conforto e de composições visuais, revelar alguns setores urbanos, valorizar a aparência dos objetos e criar a atmosfera adequada à informação que se pretende evidenciar. This article presents the analysis of artificial urban lighting as a facilitator element in the perception of the process of cities construction and configuration. This portion of the research objectives to support guidelines for a Municipal Master Plan of Lighting, proposed as an auxiliary tool in the management of the landscape structuration process in contemporary cities. Currently, there are two methodologies: the french movement L' Urbanisme Lumière and the now global City Beautification. The performance of artificial lighting in urban design allows us to offer a variety of readings as revelations of times of the city, giving the desire intonations to the landscape. Is found that the design of artificial lighting design can create conditions of comfort and visual compositions, reveal some urban sectors, enhance the appearance of objects and create the adequate atmosphere for the information that is wanted to be shown.

Abstract:
This paper presents an overview of how health outcomes vary across cities in Latin America and discusses some of the known drivers of this variation. There are large disparities in outcomes across cities and across neighborhoods of the same city. Because health is closely related to the socioeconomic conditions of individuals, part of the spatial variation reflects residential segregation by income. Local characteristics also have a direct effect on health outcomes, shaping individuals' access to health services and the prevalence of unhealthy lifestyles. In addition, urban environments affect health through natural atmospheric conditions, through local infrastructure in particular water, sanitation, and urban transit and through the presence of urban externalities such as traffic congestion, pollution, crime, and the spread of transmissible diseases. The COVID-19 pandemic illustrates many of these patterns, since the impact of the disease has differed sharply across cities, and much of this variation can be explained by observable local characteristics particularly population, connectivity with other cities and countries, income levels, and residential overcrowding.
