Tupek’s research specializes in greenhouse gases, including measuring and modelling of CO2, CH4, N2O (carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas) in forests and peat lands and their interface, and modelling carbon capture in European forests, testing widely used soil carbon models with ...
In this study, a method combining dynamic process models – including greenhouse gas (GHG), detailed energy models and operational cost – and life cycle assessment (LCA) was developed. ...
The study predicts an increase of 2.8 percent on average of the total consumption of electricity by the end of the 21st century, with a 7.2 percent rise in the peak load demand, assuming a scenario of greenhouse gas emissions 4.5 times that of pre-industrial levels. When the modeling assumes greenhouse emissions of 8.5 times, the peak ...

Estimating water requirements of plants cultivated in greenhouse environments is crucial, both for the design of greenhouse irrigation systems and the improvement of irrigation scheduling. Spinach is one of the main vegetables sold as ‘ready-to-eat’ bagged produce; it is very sensitive to water stress and thus requires accurate irrigation. In this work, a ...
Climate change was assessed by means of two Long Ashton Research Station-Weather Generator (LARS-WG) weather generators and all outputs from the available general circulation models in the Model for the Assessment of Greenhouse-gas Induced Climate Change-SCENario GENerator (MAGICC-SCENGEN) software, in combination with different emission ...
Moving to prognostic operations allows utilities to optimally schedule and scale resources to meet demand more reliably and economically. Commercial greenhouses are large water consumers. In order to produce effective forecasting models for greenhouse water demand, the factors that drive demand must be enumerated and prioritized. In this study ...
Autonomous transportation has lots of advantages. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions could be one of them. Can autonomous cars be a boon for the environment? ...

In order to estimate the level of landfill gas emission, there are various US EPA recommended models are available. One of them is LandGem. But this model has been derived as per the US climatic conditions and their type of waste. ...
This study develops an integrated life cycle inventory model for urban road transport emissions from a holistic modal perspective. The Singapore case was used to demonstrate the model. Results show that total life cycle greenhouse gas emission from Singapore's road transport sector is 7.8 million tons per year. The total amount of criteria air ...
The outputs are of two types: one is agro–economic production, such as crop yields, and the other is environmental impacts, including greenhouse gas emissions. Additive and ratio models are defined for analysing the relationship between management intensity, land productivity and environmental impacts based on the farm model. ...
Daily climate series were produced using the recorded data of Shahrekord gaging station of a reference period (1961–1990). Hadley Center Climate Model 3 general circulation model (GCM) with one greenhouse gas emission scenario (A2) has been used to construct daily climate precipitation time series over three future periods (20102039, ...
Since the cement industry emits large amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, the sector is recently under scrutiny. ...
The emissions of human–made greenhouse gases may trigger transition from the pre–industrial climate to the greenhouse steady state, which was for the last time abandoned 49 million years ago. ...
This study aims to build a vehicle replacement model for air quality improvement by reducing the emission of greenhouse gases. ...
A computable general equilibrium model of production and trade within and between rich and poor economies is developed in which the interaction between trade and environmental policies is analysed. The shape of iso–emissions curves, defined in tariff and emissions tax space, is evaluated both in the presence and in the absence of an environmental Kuznets curve. Gains in the income of ...
The magnitude of time delay can significantly exceed several decades, while current thermal imbalance of Earth is likely to amount 0.6 K but it can increase to 5 K by 2100. The paper provides modelling analysis of dynamical behaviour of global warming and presents climatic hysteresis diagrams. ...
This study investigates the possible impact of climate change on the coastal cities of Lagos and Port Harcourt using the Model for the Assessment of Greenhouse Gas Induced Climate Change (MAGICC-SCENGEN) and geographical information system (GIS) interpolation techniques. ...
Proposed NIST Programs This initiative will provide the measurement science required to achieve net-zero energy, high-performance buildings and will address the need for advanced, comprehensive surface-based measurement and modeling of greenhouse gases. Net-Zero Energy Buildings •Establish energy performance standards for new and existing buildings to ...
However, there are no mathematical models to describe the impacts of acidification on the rate of CO2 absorption. Therefore, the objective of this study was to develop simple mathematical models to describe the dependence of the CO2 absorption rate on the pH of the surface ocean. ...
Characteristics of effective models are presented, along with how wastewater modelling is integrated into the wastewater project life cycle. The desirable characteristics of wastewater treatment modelling platforms are then reviewed. Current developments of note in wastewater treatment modelling practice include estimates of ...
