Satellite-based Emission Inventory Adjustments Improve Simulations of Long-range Transport Events by Wei-Syun Huang, Stephen M. Griffith, Yi-Chun Lin, Ying-Chieh Chen, Chung-Te Lee, Charles C.-K. Chou, Ming-Tung Chuang, Sheng-Hsiang Wang, Neng-Huei Lin

“…For the 2018 event, non sea-salt sulfate concentrations were consistently underpredicted (0.2–0.4), while nitrate concentrations were overpredicted by up to factor of 11. Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) reanalysis of the PM2.5 concentrations shows high sulfate concentrations in eastern China in the areas associated with 72-h back-trajectories from northern Taiwan during both events, lending support for future model investigations of sulfate source area production and transport to Taiwan. …”

Investigating the Effect of Coffee Husk Ash as Partial Replacement of Cement in Concrete C30. by Niwainamani, Laban

“…From concrete ingredients, the binder, the costliest environmental-unfriendly element is cement, which is an ecological unsociable process due to the discharge of CO; gas into the atmosphere and ecological degradation. Coffee husks have been considered as agricultural by-product; as its quantity is rising, Uganda produced 6.77 million 60 kilo bags in 2021. …”
