Book excerpt: Gisèle Escourrou, Professeur émérite de l’Université de Paris-Sorbonne, s’est spécialisée dans l’étude des climats urbains, de la pollution atmosphérique et de la climatologie. Les transports sont une des activités économiques les plus liées au climat. D’une part, les fortes précipitations, la neige, le froid, les vents forts perturbent tous les types de circulation. Ces excès climatiques gênent les voies de circulation, détériorent parfois les véhicules, entraînent des accidents et de plus en plus pèsent sur la rentabilité. Ils interviennent différemment selon le moyen de transport et selon les grandes zones climatiques. D’autre part, les transports émettent des polluants. Ces émissions sont dépendantes du type de transport, du véhicule, du carburant. Elles perturbent la qualité de l’air plus ou moins selon les conditions climatiques, l’environnement, l’aménagement urbain. Elles ont une influence néfaste sur l’homme, la végétation, le bâti. Elles risquent de peser sur l’évolution climatique à l’échelle globale (effet de serre, destruction de la couche d’ozone). Une revue des remèdes possibles pour limiter cette pollution termine cet ouvrage. Ce problème de la pollution liée aux moyens de transport représente un des grands problèmes que le vingt et unième siècle aura à résoudre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Brief examines the impact of the Oxford Transport Strategy in central Oxford as a means of assessing the effect of reduced traffic congestion in the city centre on its sustainability. Air pollution (from vehicular traffic) has been monitored at three locations in central Oxford on the High Street, St Aldates and St Ebbes (background monitoring station). There is a further monitoring site situated in East Oxford, but this one is not considered to be central. Based on long-term monitoring at these monitoring stations, a deliberation of urban sustainability is presented. Implications are considered for long-term planning and green design in particular is part of the discussion. More specifically, urban greening strategies are presented as (soft engineering) approaches to controlling air pollution problems at this urban location. In the context of low carbon cities, green walls are assessed as they affect urban greening and energy conservation, as they enhance insulation on the exterior of solid wall buildings. Urban sustainability is best monitored using decades of data rather than just years. The Oxford Transport Strategy (OTS) was implemented in central Oxford, UK in 2001 and now a record of at least a decade of monitoring data is available for such a longer-term assessment. This work revisits the OTS from long after its implementation in the Oxford city centre and specifically examines the impact of reduced traffic congestion on sustainability. This includes address of traffic congestion, air pollution (from vehicular or traffic pollution) and the effects on the urban environment, including buildings. In parallel to this, the role of urban vegetation is considered as a sink for a variety of pollutants. Green walls, as part of urban greening, have implications for low carbon cities in the context of urban heat islands and global warming.

Download or read book Urban Transportation and Air Pollution written by Akula Venkatram and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban Transportation and Air Pollution synthesizes state-of-the-art methods on estimating near-road concentrations of roadway emissions. The book provides the information needed to make estimates using methods based on a minimal set of model inputs that can be applied by a wide range of users in many situations. Discussions include methods to estimate traffic emission under numerous urban driving conditions, the uncertainty of emission models, and the effects of road configurations, such as near-road solid barriers. Final sections present dispersion models that link traffic emissions with near road concentrations in urban environments. Addressing transportation-related environmental issues is extremely important as urban areas are constantly searching for ways to mitigate impacts from transportation sources. This book helps to explain dispersion models, a critical tool for estimating the impact of roadway emissions in cities. - Compiles and synthesizes the state-of-the-science methods for estimating roadway emissions - Demonstrates, with clear examples, how modeling methods reduce uncertainties in real-world problems - Emphasizes how local-scale, semi-empirical, steady-state modeling can be applied using only a small set of inputs - Offers an overview of the meteorology that governs air pollution dispersion in cities

This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La pollution de l'air est un problème environnemental et social majeur. Parallèlement, c'est un problème complexe qui pose de multiples défis en termes de gestion et d'atténuation des polluants atmosphériques. Ceux-ci sont émis par des sources anthropiques et naturelles. Ils peuvent être soit émis directement (polluants primaires) soit formés dans l'atmosphère (en tant que polluants secondaires). Leurs impacts sur la santé, les écosystèmes, l'environnement, et le climat est avéré. Une action efficace pour réduire les impacts de la pollution de l'air nécessite une bonne compréhension de ses causes, de la manière dont les polluants sont transportés et transformés dans l'atmosphère et de leur impact sur l'Homme, les écosystèmes, le climat, la société, l'économie et le bâti. Aujourd'hui, les politiques et les plans d'aménagements visent à rendre les villes durables. Cela implique la prise en compte des interactions internes qui font de la ville un système complexe. Il est nécessaire de considérer les déterminants de la qualité de l'air. La modélisation s'impose comme un des principaux outils d'aide à la décision. Il existe actuellement peu de travaux de modélisation intégrant plusieurs champs disciplinaires en termes de qualité de l'air. Les travaux de recherche visent à développer une approche innovante de la modélisation de la qualité de l'air en intégrant des composantes sociales, économiques et de logistique de transport.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policy-making for urban transport and planning of economies in the developing world present major challenges for countries facing rapid urbanisation and rampant motorisation, alongside growing commitments to sustainability. These challenges include: coping with financial deficits, providing for the poor, dealing meaningfully with global warming and energy shortages, addressing traffic congestion and related land use issues, adopting green technologies and adjusting equitably to the impacts of globalisation. This book presents a contemporary analysis of these challenges and new workable responses to the urban transport problems they spawn.
