    • English
    Towards Energy-Efficient Buildings: Envelope Technologies and Sustainable Energy Systems examines the intersection of building design and energy systems analysis, paving the way to sustainable, efficient buildings and our communal energy future. This book begins by outlining the major energy challenges for buildings and the fundamentals and opportunities in envelope technology for their increasing the efficiency of their energy systems. Close analysis of various technologies is then carried out, including case studies and demonstrations of impact assessment techniques. The ways in which these technologies interact with energy systems within the building are drawn out and clarified for a range of readers. Finally, detailed guidance on energy system assessment and analysis is provided. Bringing together these two essential disciplines for sustainable living, Towards Energy-Efficient Buildings will support energy engineers, researchers, and students of energy systems in developing technologies for energy-efficient, sustainable buildings.

  • Plant Functional Traits

    Linking Climate and Ecosystem Functioning
    • 1st Edition
    • Manoj Kumar + 2 more
    • English
    Plant Function Traits: Linking Climate and Ecosystem Functioning, part of the Plant Biology, Sustainability and Climate Change series, presents a wholistic understanding of Plant Functional Traits. As global climate change advances, natural resources are facing increasing survival challenges, hence this book directly addresses that need, exploring the morphological, physiological, and phenological properties of a plant that can be used as a proxy to understand plant environment interactions. Users will find great illustrations throughout individual chapters, along with case studies that demonstrate applications of functional traits in classifying vegetation of a region into distinct type groups as Plant Functional Types (PFTs).Additional information includes applications in the development of new generation of Dynamic Global Vegetation Model (DGVM) and an understanding of the response of vegetation to changing environments.
