Development of environmental protection together with economic and social development can be considered sustainable only if they support individual quality of life. Conceptually, quality of life is closely related to sustainable development, since sustainability implies a balance between environmental, social, and economic qualities. Environmental quality is reflected in its ability to meet the basic human needs. Quality of life is a complex and multi-dimensional construct that warrants multiple approaches from different theoretical perspectives. Evaluation of the quality of life determined by the environment can be facilitated using objective and subjective measurements. Regardless of how these two indicators are classified, both are considered equally beneficial and valuable for research. Considering all the above mentioned, the aim of this chapter is to shed light on the importance of environmental protection for the quality of life, as well as the necessity to measure quality of life determined by environmental factors in order to adequately manage them.

In this chapter, the author presents the operation and power management of the hydrogen storage-based smart DC microgrid (DCMG). In this microgrid, several renewable distributed generations (DGs) such as wind turbine, solar photovoltaic system, solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), and battery energy storage system are interconnected together and to the various DC and AC loads to form a ring-type low voltage distribution network. An additional storage as Hydrogen storage system has been connected to the dc microgrid for balancing the power at all times in the DCMG, under islanded mode operation, for all practical cases. An architecture of the hydrogen storage-based DC microgrid is suggested mainly for the remote rural area. For the regeneration of the electricity from the stored hydrogen, a SOFC DG system is also used in the proposed DCMG. A control technique is also developed for the operation of the hydrogen storage-based DCMG. The proposed DCMG system provides a reliable and high-quality power supply and will supply the power to all loads (both DC and AC) simultaneously.

This chapter aimed to investigate the record of climatic and environmental change in the sedimentary filling of sebkha Mhabeul and their effect on hydric and eolian erosion within the wetland and its watershed. Along a 37 cm core, the sedimentary, geochemical, and geophysical signals at the Holocene-Anthropocene transition were followed. Sampling was carried out each 1 cm to obtain 37 samples. All studied parameters and clustering techniques indicate that the first 7 cm represent the Anthropocene strata. According to the age model, this upper part of the core records the last 300 yrs. The sedimentary record of the Anthropocene is marked by an increasing rate of sedimentation, grain size fining, heavy metals (Pb, Cu, Ni, Mn, and Fe) enrichment, which is related to increased erosion. Other intrinsic parameters such as CE, pH, Na, K, and CaCO3 enhance sediment erodibility. The measurement of the magnetic susceptibility along a 37 cm core collected from the sebkha Mhabeul shows an obvious upward increase related to a high content of heavy metals for the first 7 cm.
