It refers to the branch of environmental engineering in which scientific and engineering concepts and principles are applied to control of air pollutant emissions, their generation and release from a source, their transport and transformation in and removal from the atmosphere, and their effects on human beings, materials, and ecosystems.
Air Pollution Control Engineering
It refers to the branch of environmental engineering concerned with the control of pollutants in; their generation and release from a source, their transport and transformation in and removal from the atmosphere, and their effects on human beings, materials, and ecosystems.
Air Pollution Engineering
It refers to the adjustment in natural or human systems in response to actual or expected climatic stimuli or their effects, which moderates harm or exploits beneficial opportunities.
Climate Change Adaptation
It refers to a serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society involving widespread human, material, economic or environmental losses and impacts, which exceeds the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources.
Disaster
It refers to the lessening and limitation of the adverse impacts of hazards and related disasters.
Disaster Mitigation
It measures encompass engineering techniques and hazard-resistant construction as well as improved environmental policies and public awareness, land use planning, and climate change.
Mitigation
It refers to the systematic process of using administrative directives, organizations, and operational skills and capacities to implement strategies, policies and improved coping capacities in order to lessen the adverse impacts of hazards and possibility of disaster.
Disaster Risk Management
It refers to the concept and practice of reducing disaster risks through systematic efforts to analyze and manage casual factors of disasters, including through reduced exposure of hazards, lessened vulnerability of people and property, wise management of land and environment, and improved preparedness of adverse events.
