Though a natural instinct to mitigate moisture-induced damage may be to avoid the infiltration of water, some mixtures, such as drainage asphalts, are in fact designed to lead the water through the asphalt mixture.
The authors hope that this chapter can be used by the reader to obtain a sense of the current state of the art in the field and to encourage further developments so that advanced characterization and prediction methods will start being used to actively mitigate premature and unexpected moisture damage in asphalt pavements in practice.
Also, because respiratory processes are strongly dependent on moisture availability, any actions that can be taken to accelerate moisture loss will mitigate the CO2 issue.
Ensuing tests indicate that quick lime can mitigate the negative influence of aggregate moisture on properties of the resin asphalt mixture.
55– 61 FAC's beneficial effect on the skin's barrier functionality and moisture balance could also mitigate the main signs and symptoms of acne such as erythema, desquamation, burning, itching, dyschromia, and pain.
The laboratory studies discussed above suggest that increasing the moisture levels above typical indoor AH and RH may mitigate the spread of influenza viruses in the air and on surfaces during the influenza season [ 13, 18].
Not only does this practice – sometimes referred to as regenerative agriculture – help soils retain vital moisture during dry periods, it also retains more carbon in the soil, thus helping mitigate the effects of climate change.
However, low average moisture content and co-mineralisation of copper and iron sulphides (or bulk sulphide sorting) was found to mitigate the deviation and provide better sortability performance.
Meanwhile, soil moisture deficit and saturation are more likely to occur in grassland and forest areas, indicating that forest cover might mitigate drought.
"With a warming climate, dry weather and reducing moisture, these kinds of catastrophes have happened and will continue to happen and we have to be ready to mitigate, and it's going to cost a lot of money," he said last week.
