The capacity of human interventions to regulate PM2.5 concentration has substantially improved in China by Jiachen Meng, Wenchao Han, Cheng Yuan, Lulu Yuan, Wenze Li

“…However, the contributions of these factors can seriously vary with different periods of urban development. Based on multi-source data, 304 prefecture-level cities in China were chosen as study areas, and we used the Geographically and Temporally Weighted Regression (GTWR) model to quantify the relative contributions of three factors—emission, ULP, and meteorological condition—to PM2.5 concentration variation in different periods, namely, the Slow Ascending Period (SAP, 2000–2007), the Stable High-level Period (SHP, 2007–2013), and the Rapid Decline Period (RDP, 2013–2020). …”

Le réseau hydraulique à Pompéi (Italie) de l’époque des Samnites à Auguste (fin ive-fin ier s. av. J.-C.) by Federico Giletti

“…Despite this, the archaeological literature has attempted, on the basis of the few diagnostic elements available, to reconstruct the history of the city’s water management system and its evolution in the context of the site’s urban development. This study pursues this line of research, re-examining its phases and proposals through a wide-ranging analysis of the issues tackled, but above all by proposing a new and systematic approach to the subject, from which it has been possible to take stock of some elements and to verify or arrive at new conclusions on others.While the bibliography concerning certain aspects of Pompeii’s water management is rich, dedicated and in some cases quite comprehensive, regarding which this research has demonstrated the limits of a generic approach absent excavation work, on other topics by contrast the study presented here provided an opportunity for the first time to deepen our knowledge of issues and artefacts and the possibility of bringing together the various topics.With regard to the water supply to the Archaic and Hellenistic city, therefore, it was possible to identify an integrated system of supply to the entire urban space, consisting of catchment wells and cisterns for recovering rainwater from the roofs. …”
