Example of the distribution of active carbon indicator data in medium textured soils used to determine the scoring curve.
Positive correlations of NH4+ with apparent age, CH4, dissolved organic carbon, and indicators of reduced conditions are consistent with NH4+ mobilization from degradation of aquifer organic matter and contraindicate an anthropogenic source of NH4+ for most sites.
It also offers a more manageable measure to start with when compared with complex carbon storage indicators.
In multipollutant models, where we used indicator elements for sources instead of source-specific PM2.5, only absorbance (elemental carbon), an indicator of local traffic and other combustion, was associated with ST segment depressions.
Fibre-optic cameras, specialist sound equipment and carbon-dioxide indicators to detect human breath were also used.
The research found that there was still considerable uncertainty over how the localism agenda is playing out and many people felt the removal of the NI186 carbon emissions indicator set – those CO² emissions that local authorities are expected to minimise – would have a negative impact (20%).
Following these, four indicators (carbon footprint, biodiversity, use of pesticides and animal welfare) were chosen to represent the impact on the environment and animal welfare from different choices of meat and other protein sources.
Their photocatalytic activities were evaluated with regard to degradation kinetics of humic acid in terms of UV vis spectroscopic parameters (Color436 and UV254) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) as indicators of decolorization and mineralization respectively.
In this study, we explore c-q hysteresis plots and pollutographs for a variety of inorganic solutes (Cl−, Na+, K+, SiO2, NO3−), dissolved organic carbon and an indicator of the aromatic fraction (SUVA254), and a microbiological indicator (E. coli) in an urban salted watershed.
As an outcome, new indicators for carbon efficiency and carbon economy of buildings are proposed.
