MIT researchers have built a model to simulate long-range atmospheric transport of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The model that will be further developed as part of an NSF-funded project to track how chemicals get to remote Arctic environments. Persistent organic pollutants are chemicals of substantial international concern.

The new report, part of the World Energy Outlook (WEO) 2011 series, examines the key factors that could result in a more prominent role for natural gas in the global energy mix, and the implications for other fuels, energy security and climate change.

In this work, we propose a novel bug algorithm named ‘Sniffy Bug’, which allows a fully autonomous swarm of gas-seeking nano quadcopters to localize a gas source in an unknown, cluttered and GPS-denied environments. We present a novel samara-inspired autorotating craft that is capable of autorotating and diving. MIT CSAIL ].

The summit kicked off on 4 May at the Georgia Aquarium with a reception and panel discussion on climate change and sustainability, moderated by Saifur Rahman , IEEE president and CEO. It’s human frailty being replicated in the online environment. Engineering changes the way the world works,” he said.

“People were really interested in clean air and clean water, so I decided there would always be interest in the environment,” Crawford says. You study many areas in civil engineering, including structures, soils, transportation, and the environment,” she says. She switched her major to civil and environmental engineering.

The researchers concluded that models of climate change may be underestimating how much water is likely to run off the land and back into the sea as atmospheric chemistry changes. Either way, water resource managers need more accurate runoff estimates to plan better for the changes. Credit: NASA. Click to enlarge.
