Air monitoring sensors and advanced analytics in exposure assessmentDrew Hill
https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.12354866.v2
We are in the middle of a movement in environmental sensors that is taking the world by storm— Californian governments and public health practitioners, in particular, are leading the nation in exploring and implementing environmental sensors in the production of highly granular, realtime air quality information. As this movement matures, we are seeing improved understanding of ambient exposures and insights that are truly actionable — for example informing community emissions reduction plans under the recent Assembly Bill 617. This innovation in air quality sensor science can be leveraged to improve measurements in the industrial and occupational spaces. This movement has also lead to innovations in analysis methods that facilitate exposure insights not feasible with standard filter, adsorbent, and general integrated samples. This presentation discusses recent advancements in these spaces and offer brief examples of their implementation and potential applicability toward the industrial and occupational hygiene spaces.

The geophysical validation of satellite borne atmospheric chemistry instruments requires a large number of independent observations by a variety of in-situ, remote-sensing and satellite instruments. In the case of the Aura and Envisat missions more than 300 instruments have been formally included in the validation efforts.
In order to extract maximum information from the "ground-truth" measurements, these independent validation datasets must be readily accessible to all investigators in an simple format with standard metadata, variable naming and data structures.
Beginning in 2000, NASA and ESA have been collaborating under the auspices of the CEOS Working Group Calibration/Validation (WGCV) Atmospheric Chemistry Sub Group (ACSG) on the file format definition, metadata formulations, and variable definitions for validation datasets.
This standard, known as the AVDC/Envisat HDF format, is the basis of the Aura Validation Data Center (AVDC) and the Envisat Cal/ Val Data Center implementations. Recently, the AVDC/Envisat HDF formulation has been accepted as the new reporting standard of the Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change (NDACC), an international network of high quality remote sensing stations, and for the next ESA GMES Earth Observing missions. The concept behind the AVDC/Envisat HDF reporting standard, its implementation and future applications will to be presented in detail.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
WRI’s brand new “Food Service Playbook for Promoting Sustainable Food Choices” gives food service operators the very latest strategies for creating dining environments that empower consumers to choose sustainable, plant-rich dishes. This research builds off our first guide for food service, now with industry experience and insights from nearly 350 academic trials.
Diabetes is a rapidly and serious health problem in Pakistan. This chronic condition is associated with serious long-term complications, including higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Aggressive treatment of hypertension and hyperlipideamia can result in a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes 1. Consequently pharmacist-led diabetes cardiovascular risk (DCVR) clinics have been established in both primary and secondary care sites in NHS Lothian during the past five years. An audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery at the clinics was conducted in order to evaluate practice and to standardize the pharmacists’ documentation of outcomes. Pharmaceutical care issues (PCI) and patient details were collected both prospectively and retrospectively from three DCVR clinics. The PCI`s were categorized according to a triangularised system consisting of multiple categories. These were ‘checks’, ‘changes’ (‘change in drug therapy process’ and ‘change in drug therapy’), ‘drug therapy problems’ and ‘quality assurance descriptors’ (‘timer perspective’ and ‘degree of change’). A verified medication assessment tool (MAT) for patients with chronic cardiovascular disease was applied to the patients from one of the clinics. The tool was used to quantify PCI`s and pharmacist actions that were centered on implementing or enforcing clinical guideline standards. A database was developed to be used as an assessment tool and to standardize the documentation of achievement of outcomes. Feedback on the audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery and the database was received from the DCVR clinic pharmacist at a focus group meeting.
