Imaging spectrometers like EMIT measure the albedo of snow — the percentage of solar radiation it’s reflecting. What isn’t reflected is absorbed, so the observations indicate how much energy snow is taking in, which in turn helps with estimates of snow melt rates. The instruments also discer...
Because the Earth's climate is so complex, no one is really sure how much a change to one region's climate will affect other regions. For example, scientists at the University of Colorado theorize that the decrease in sea ice in the Arctic could reduce snowfall in Colorado because Arctic c...
Check the city of Amsterdam’s website for low-emission vehicle requirements within the A10 ring road and P+R (park and ride) locations. If you do decide to drive, be mindful that all streets in the central canal ring are one-way, and to drive on the right. When approaching ...
This is much lower than it was just 10 years ago. The federal solar tax credit allows you to apply 30% of your solar system's cost as a credit to your federal tax bill. Many states also provide local incentives, which help further reduce costs. And, if you live in an area with ...

Discover the key drivers behind IT leaders' rapid AI adoption, their areas of hesitation, and essential strategies to overcome challenges for a successful AI implementation.
He illustrated this with the case of California and its role in creating stricter automobile emission standards not only in the US but also abroad. The ‘Brussels effect’ [79] was outlined by Anu Bradford and refers to how the EU is able to exert its regulations on other jurisdictions and...
In most areas the charging infrastructure for heavy duty along main trade paths is some blend of public/private funding (mostly public). In the US public charging for HD vehicles is pretty much non-existent. There is funding for major corridor projects that are underway, but that is up in...
D As part of a European Union environmental programme, a London council is testing an infra-red spectrometer from the University of Denver in Colorado. It gouges the pollution from a passing vehicle - more useful than the annual stationary test that is the British standard today - by bouncing...
