Urban areas are disproportionately affected by multiple pressures from overbuilding, traffic, air pollution, and heat waves that often interact interconnected in producing health effects. A new synthetic tool to summarize environmental climatic vulnerability has been introduced for the city of Rome, Italy, provide basis policies. From a literature overview based on availability data, several macro-dimensions were identified 1,461 grid cells with width 1 km2 Rome: land use, roads...
Ellenberg indicator values (EIV) are widely used in vegetation ecology, but the for many species Southeastern Europe not available due to incomplete knowledge of their ecology: it is therefore paramount importance estimate missing existing databases. The entire EIV set a single can be or which other available. Our aim here provide simple method impute who have data multiple EIV. For this purpose, we adopt imputation procedure and compare number methods on basis two datasets: i) "indices", 9...
The River Sacco Basin (Rsb) is a site of National interest, characterized by several environmental pressures such as industrial facilities. This study investigates the association between long-term exposure to industrial-PM10 and -NOx cause-specific mortality (non-accidental, cardiovascular, respiratory, cancer) in Rsb 2006-2018 period. We enrolled 301,681 residents near 14 major plants (grouped into 5 30-km2 spatial domains). Residential annual PM10 NOx was considered categorical (high...
