The 7th International Electronic Conference on Atmospheric Sciences (ECAS-7) was held online from 4 to 6 June 2025 [...]
Owing to the natural texture of dam lakes, they emit nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions. The main aim of this study was to reduce N2O emissions resulting from dam lake treatment using malt dust-derived biochar. On average, a 21.1% reduction in N2O emissio...
Aircraft emissions are a growing environmental concern due to their contribution to local air pollution and potential health risks, particularly around rapidly expanding airports. In Egypt, rapid urban growth and tourism have driven the construction...
The field of climate modeling is undergoing a significant transformation, moving away from the traditional General Circulation Models (GCMs) and toward the use of sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI)-based prediction systems. Research has shown...
This study presents the development, construction, and implementation of a portable meteorological station. An ESP8266 microcontroller was used as the control system. Temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure were measured. The UV index, therma...
This paper presents the concept and development of an autonomous DIY air quality sensor for citizen science. Large civil monitoring projects often rely on air quality calculations based on PM2.5 and PM10 dust readings in combination with some gases a...
This study investigates the future temperature changes in the climate-vulnerable region of the Eastern Mediterranean. The results from seventeen (17) CMIP6 (6th Phase of Coupled Model Intercomparison Project) model simulations are analyzed. The analy...
Spatial-temporal optimal interpolation (STOI) is a data assimilation method based on minimizing the error in an estimate. Error correlations can be modeled with analytical functions. We investigated the effect of the form of the error correlation fun...
As global temperatures continue to rise, understanding the relationship between climate and vegetation is crucial for agriculture and for mitigating and adapting to environmental changes. The complex interaction between vegetation and climate becomes...
This study examines the impact of envelope renovation using Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) insulation and double glazing on reducing CO2 emissions and energy consumption in low-income residential buildings in Mozambique’s tropical climate. Conducte...
Urban vegetation plays a key role in mitigating thermal stress in cities, particularly in Mediterranean climates increasingly affected by urban heat. This study evaluates the impact of vegetation on outdoor thermal comfort in Piazzetta San Michele Ar...
In this contribution, three techniques related to modelling and remote sensing were tested to answer questions and satisfy requirements from air quality managers in the mining sector: (1) What are appropriate emission factors for blasting operations...
This study investigated the minimization of the N2O emissions related to brewery wastewater treatment by malt-sprout-derived biochar. The biochar was derived using slow pyrolysis (300 (B1), 400 (B2), and 550 °C (B3)). The correspondence between t...
The climatic conditions of a region are a constant object of study, especially now that climate change is clearly affecting quality of life and the way we live. The study of the climatic conditions of a region is conducted through meteorological data...
The Indian heat low, a strong atmospheric circulation pattern marked by low pressure and high temperatures, significantly influences weather patterns over Pakistan and northern India. Understanding how terrestrial heating patterns changes over time i...
The petrochemical industry emits large amounts of nitrogen oxides (NOx). It is the second source of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which, through photochemical reactions, can form tropospheric ozone (O3) and, together with geographic and meteorol...
This study investigates personal exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) during walking commutes in Gliwice, Poland—a city characterized by elevated levels of air pollution. Data from a low-cost air quality sensor were compared with a munic...
In this study, a combined approach joining the machine learning model Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) with Shapley Additive Explanation (SHAP) is adopted to simulate the temporal pattern of the air quality index (AQI) and subsequently explore the...
