Climate change poses escalating challenges to urban systems, intensifying risks from extreme temperatures, flooding, sea-level rise, and socio-environmental inequalities. Cities are increasingly recognised as critical ar...

Freshwater resources face enormous pressures to meet human and ecosystem needs in a changing climate. These pressures brought concern for rising water insecurity high on global agendas and, renewed interest in improving ...

Smallholder farmers in the Northeast India are vulnerable to climate risks due to subsistence based rainfed farming, fragmented landholdings, fragile ecosystems, and limited institutional support. This study aimed to ass...

Agricultural production is vital for income and food security in rural areas. However, in Manyaran District, Wonogiri Regency's rice farming livelihoods are increasingly threatened by climate change, environmental pressu...

Climate adaptation planning in resource-constrained contexts requires systematic assessment tools integrating vulnerability with capacity measurement, yet existing frameworks focus either on community vulnerability witho...

Abstract Background Shift workers are disproportionately exposed to institutional food environments shaped by long working hours and irregular schedules. In rapidly industrializing cities, institutional fast-food availab...

This integrative review synthesizes current knowledge on the physiological responses and adaptive mechanisms of amphibians and reptiles to multiple interacting environmental stressors, with particular emphasis on synergi...

Climate change is creating serious challenges for fisheries in coastal Nigeria. Fisheries extension workers, who support fishers with advice and training, must themselves be resilient to continue delivering services. Thi...

In Ethiopia, natural hazard threats have an adverse effect on many livelihoods. However, the systematic assessment of rural household livelihood vulnerability to the threats is lacking in the Sile-Sago watershed, which t...

Urban informality and climate change pose significant challenges for urban planning in rapidly growing cities in the Global South. This study conducts a qualitative content analysis of 45 spatial planning instruments add...

While there is wide consensus about the reliance of climate projections at global scale, there is still uncertainty about changes at finer scale and even less on the effects of such fluctuations for local economies and s...

This study examines the factors that determine whether firms adopt AI and are ready to invest, and explores labour-market and employment-related expectations in wartime Ukraine. Methodology. The study is based on origina...

The article shows that the specificity of a holistic personality adjustment process in social systems is not confined only because of the peculiarities of its elements, such as the personal maturity, changes in the socia...

Background: Chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) are a major global health burden, and pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is a well-established, evidence-based intervention that improves functional capacity and quality of lif...

Background: Plasticity in sensory perception and tolerance to xenobiotics contributes to insects’ adaptive capacity and evolutionary success, by enabling them to cope with potentially toxic molecules from the environme...

Agriculture remains the food supplier of many households globally. In Africa, agriculture helps many farm households to meet their household food needs. Given the importance of agriculture in achieving food security in m...

Infrared thermal radiation signals are highly susceptible to environmental interference, leading to dynamic fluctuations. Consequently, weak targets are frequently submerged in heavy clutter backgrounds under extreme sce...

In this study, the effects of salinity (0, 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 mM NaCl) and drought stress on the germination and seedling development of five Cynodon dactylon genotypes (A, B, C, D, and Gobi), collected from dif...

ABSTRACT Two experiments were conducted aiming to evaluate the effects of two ovulatory inducers (Exp.1) and equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG; Exp.2) on follicular and luteal dynamics in a fixed-time AI (FTAI) protocol...

ABSTRACT Thaumastocoris peregrinus (Hemiptera, Thaumastocoridae) is a phytophagous pest of eucalyptus plantations. It was introduced in Brazil in 2008, and expanded rapidly due to its adaptive capacity to different clima...

Abstract Objective: Exercise interventions can improve parameters in offspring predisposed to metabolic issues. In this study, we investigate whether acute aerobic exercise in offspring can improve metabolism via miRNA ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) agents are increasingly deployed across organisational environments, introducing not only efficiency gains but also complex security and governance challenges. This paper explores how the int...

The article presents the results of a study of the influence of adverse microclimate parameters on the morphological and immunological blood parameters of piglets in the neonatal period of development, and also evaluates...

The elderly are a fast growing population in the world, and they have a high prevalence of chronic kidney disease. The function of the kidney changes markedly with age. The glomerular fi ltration rate falls progressively...
