Book Description
Renewable Energy: Technology and the Environment comprises 106 chapters, with the first focusing on integrated resource planning. The following chapters delve into such topics as electricity from geothermal energy; wave energy prospects and prototypes; renewable energy policies for the nineties and beyond; and renewable energy technologies in developing countries. These topics are followed by discussions on harnessing the tax system to benefit alternative energy; energy-meteorology; development energy and environment; solar energy education; solar hydrogen; sky brightness during twilight; and solar instrumentation used in meteorology. Other chapters cover self-acting system tracking for pyrheliometers; directly coupled turbine-induction generator systems for low-cost micro-hydro power; and the utilization of genetic algorithm for the optimal design of a pneumatic hydro-power device. The remaining chapters present field experiments of a wave power converter with caisson breakwater; technical potentials of renewable energies; and air pollution modification due to energy supply diversification. This book will be of interest to practitioners in the fields of meteorology and environmental studies.

LIDAR for Atmospheric Aerosol Detection
Author: Joseph Boon Han, Ooi
Publisher: Penerbit USM
ISBN: 967461897X
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
LIDAR, otherwise known as Light Detection and Ranging, is an optical active remote sensing technique that has vast applications in numerous fields. Most impressively, LIDAR has been established as a capable tool for atmospheric studies due to its ability to probe atmospheric aerosols that are invisible to the naked eye. Although air quality monitoring stations perform admirably as atmospheric aerosol monitoring systems, the potential of LIDAR to surpass these conventional approaches in measuring air pollutant levels is evident due to its superior detection range and rapid range-resolved measurements. This monograph aims to provide an introduction to elastic backscatter LIDAR theory, design and signal processing, as well as present the reader with a review of the latest developments and applications of LIDAR in atmospheric aerosol detection. With this monograph, the authors hope to provide a stepping stone for new LIDAR researchers, students and scientific enthusiasts to begin investigating this ever expanding field of science and engineering, as well as bridge the discontinuity between textbooks and the latest advancements in LIDAR technology and experiments
