Climate change has had crucial impacts on phenological stages, such as the advancement or decline of the vegetation cycle of stone fruit trees. Vegetation phenology is an important biological indicator in understanding a...

the Biotic Pump Theory, as set forward by Drs. Makarieva and Gorshkov, states that the primary force driving surface winds, certainly in the tropics, is induced by the negative changes in atmospheric pressure caused by c...

This book covers some of the key global dynamics of our age. It aspires to assist the non-specialized reader, as well as the specialized one, to understand the world we live in, the forces that affect our coexistence, th...

In a recent paper (Lüning et al., 2022; henceforth L22) we critically commented on an attribution study by Stuart-Smith et al. (2021; hencefort S21), pointing out a mismatch between numerical simulation and palaeoclimat...

The prevalence of antibodies against bluetongue virus was investigated in 41 dairy goats and 40 sheep herds in the semi-arid region of Pernambuco state and the conditions for insect Culicoides maintenance, considering cl...

Abstract Food insecurity remains a major challenge in fragile and climate-exposed countries, especially where agricultural production depends on rainfall and economic systems are weak. Somalia faces this challenge acutel...

Climate change is exerting a significant influence on viticulture, leading to altered phenological stages, shifts in grape ripening, and major challenges for maintaining wine typicity. This study evaluates the long-term ...

The Antarctic Peninsula is one of the regions on the Earth with the clearest evidence of recent and fast air warming. This air temperature rise has caused massive glacier retreat leading to an increased influx of glacier...

The climatic variations observed in recent decades in Patagonia have affected the dynamics of the Andean forests. In this study, new and existing Austrocedrus chilensis chronologies were subjected to analysis in 28 sites...

Rapid climatic changes and increasing human influence at high elevations around the world will have profound impacts on mountain biodiversity. However, forecasts from statistical models (e.g. species distribution models)...

This article presents a statistical analysis of the relationship between the development of the circular economy and climate change in Ukraine during the period 2010–2024. The circular economy, as an alternative model ...

Methane emissions and chemical pollutants often co-occur in natural and engineered environments, contributing to ecosystem degradation. Microorganisms play key roles in regulating these processes through methane oxidatio...
