DOI: 10.1016/j.buildenv.2019.03.019
Abstract: Abstract Natural ventilation can be used to improve indoor air quality, remove contaminants from spaces and to remove heat from a building during the day, or during the night. In some cases, openings for natural… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.geomorph.2019.03.004
Abstract: Dust emissions due to aeolian erosion of exposed granular materials are strongly influenced by grain size distribution. Non-erodible particles that are too heavy to be lifted into the air play a protective role in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.geomorph.2021.107594
Abstract: Abstract As the land-sea interface, foredunes buffer upland habitats with plants acting as ecosystem engineers shaping topography, and thereby affecting storm response and recovery. However, many ecogeomorphic feedbacks in coastal foredune formation and recovery remain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvrad.2020.106341
Abstract: Micro-SWIFT SPRAY (MSS) is a 3D Lagrangian particle dispersion model that maintains a good balance between accuracy and computational cost. However, its capabilities for air dispersion modeling in the presence of both complex topography and… read more here.
