Modeling the angular effect of MODIS LST in urban areas: A case study of Toulouse, France Remote Sens. Environ. (IF 9.085) Pub Date : 2021-02-26 Dandan Wang; Yunhao Chen; Leiqiu Hu; James A. Voogt; Jean-Philippe Gastellu-Etchegorry; E. Scott Krayenhoff
Satellite observation of land surface temperature (LST) is an important tool for monitoring urban thermal environments but is prone to significant angular effects over non-isothermal pixels characterized by the substantial three-dimensional (3D) structure of urban areas. However, accurately characterizing the urban thermal anisotropy at the satellite pixel scale is still challenging. In this paper

Analytical determination of the soil temperature distribution and freezing front position for linear arrangement of freezing pipes using the undetermined coefficient method Cold Reg. Sci. Technol. (IF 2.739) Pub Date : 2021-02-16 Song Zhang; Zurun Yue; Tiecheng Sun; Jiwei Zhang; Baolong Huang
When on-site tests are performed in artificial ground freezing projects, the conventional analytical method for determining the soil temperature field often presents significant error under certain conditions, particularly when the temperature-measuring pipe is far removed from the freezing front. This paper proposes a new method—called the undetermined coefficient method (UCM)—that more accurately

A sensitivity analysis on effective parameters for sliding/melting prediction of snow cover on solar photovoltaic panels Cold Reg. Sci. Technol. (IF 2.739) Pub Date : 2021-02-20 Robert E. Pawluk; Mohammad Rezvanpour; Yuxiang Chen; Yuntong She
The electricity generation of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels can be significantly affected by snow cover on the panels. This influence must be accurately predicted for PV systems to be considered a reliable source of electricity generation. Previous studies have shown the effectiveness of threshold-type empirical models in predicting the condition of snow cover on PV panels; these models use plane-of-array

Nickel (Ni) has been a subject of interest for environmental, physiological, biological scientists due to its dual effect (toxicity and essentiality) in terrestrial biota. In general, the safer limit of Ni is 1.5 μg g−1 in plants and 75–150 μg g−1 in soil. Litreature review indicates that Ni concentrations have been estimated up to 26 g kg−1 in terrestrial, and 0.2 mg L−1 in aquatic resources. In case
