  2. Developing low-cost air quality monitors for Heathrow Airport

    …ies. The Heathrow SNAQ (Sensor Networks for Air Quality) project needed to install sensor nodes across take-off and landing zones and the airport’s perimeter to monitor pollutant gases and particulates – the microscopic airborne particles that are a major component of air pollution – over 15 months. While the nodes could use low-cost electrochemical sensors for the pollutant gases, there was no equivalent affordable solution for the continuous mon…

    …enhance grassland biodiversity and improve grazing for stock animals. For instance, mixed species grazing groups lead to a more efficient use of vegetation, improved agricultural productivity and the development of a more heterogeneous habitat which supports a greater biodiversity (Garcia, 2013). This is because ponies eat invasive grasses and shrubs sheep avoid, including Molinia caerulea (purple moor-grass) and Ulex spp. (gorse) (Fraser et al.,…

    …actors, as well as against individual risk factors. For example, household instability in early childhood has been shown to lead to worse cognitive and social outcomes by the age of five. Going to nursery or spending time with a childminder, however, can substantially reduce this impact. This suggests that children from the most disadvantaged families gain the most from early childhood education and care. But chronic underfunding of early years ed…
