Download or read book Outdoor Lighting for Pedestrians written by Frank Markowitz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outdoor Lighting for Pedestrians shows how outdoor lighting is important for pedestrians’ safety, personal security, and comfort, with major impacts on street, path, and park aesthetics and neighborhood sense of place. Providing clear, basic technical background (accessible to non-engineers), the book focuses especially on planning and policy concerns. It covers the fundamentals of lighting technology; benefits, costs, and possible adverse impacts of lighting enhancements; traditional and innovative approaches; planning and policy documents and practices; aesthetics and placemaking; and technology trends in lighting design. This book is aimed primarily at practicing transportation planners and engineers, generalist urban planners, safety advocates and researchers, and university students. However, lighting designers and other professionals will also find it useful. It considers how lighting can be coordinated with other potential improvements to enhance the pedestrian environment for better walkability.

Download or read book Occupational Safety and Health Effects Associated with Reduced Levels of Illumination written by A. Heins and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) conducts research, recommends occupational safety and health standards to the Department of Labor, and conducts training and related activities to assure safe and healthful working conditions for every working man and woman in the Nation. Reduced levels of illumination are currently being used in our country as a method of energy conservation. As a result, many questions have arisen regarding potentially deleterious effects on worker safety and health. The Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare, Caspar W. Weinberger, requested that NIOSH investigate the potential effects of these reduced levels of illumination on safety and health in the work environment. NIOSH conducted a symposium on reduced levels of illumination July 11 to 12 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Based on the premise that energy conservation is a long-range goal, knowledge and information pertaining to safety and health effects associated with working under reduced levels of illumination become of prime importance. The purpose of the symposium was to review and discuss potential problems. The primary objectives were to ascertain the current level of knowledge on safety and health associated with low levels of illumination, to identify areas where research is needed, and to create an awareness of these areas so that future research efforts can be appropriately directed. The information contained in these symposium proceedings should be of interest and assistance to public and private institutions and organizations, as well as individuals who have an interest in the relationship of illumination to safety and health.

Download or read book Ecological Consequences of Artificial Night Lighting written by Catherine Rich and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While certain ecological problems associated with artificial night lighting are widely known-for instance, the disorientation of sea turtle hatchlings by beachfront lighting-the vast range of influences on all types of animals and plants is only beginning to be recognized. From nest choice and breeding success of birds to behavioral and physiological changes in salamanders, many organisms are seriously affected by human alterations in natural patterns of light and dark. Ecological Consequences of Artificial Night Lighting is the first book to consider the environmental effects of the intentional illumination of the night. It brings together leading scientists from around the world to review the state of knowledge on the subject and to describe specific effects that have been observed across a full range of taxonomic groups, including mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians, fishes, invertebrates, and plants. Ecological Consequences of Artificial Night Lighting provides a scientific basis to begin addressing the challenge of conserving the nighttime environment. It cogently demonstrates the vital importance of this until-now neglected topic and is an essential new work for conservation planners, researchers, and anyone concerned with human impacts on the natural world.
