For the first time meet in a publication, the leading exponents of contemporary geography as Brian J. L. Berry, Neil Wrigley, Richard Shearmur, Luc Anselin and Jim Simmons in order to analyze the past, present and future...

Distance has always been a factor surrounded by the myth when comprehending political behaviour, Come would say that spatialituy is fixed, and therefore outside the influence of political actors, and others suggest that ...

Water availability is one of the main limiting factors that control ecosystem functions and productivity in semiarid regions. Vegetation of these regions usually presents a patchy distribution where sparse plant cover is...

Progress towards gender equality in Europe has been very significant over the last century, however, there is still room for improvement in some of the key dimensions. The EU Gender Equality Strategy 2020-2025 calls for ...

In arid and semiarid areas, the interplant spaces are usually covered by physical and biological soil crusts. These crusts, though representing an almost negligible portion of the soil profile, have a number of crucial r...

Abstract Ecotourism is increasingly recognized as a sustainable development strategy for environmentally sensitive mountain regions. However, its effectiveness depends on spatially informed planning and community accepta...

Abstract Background Accidents caused by venomous animals represent a major neglected public health problem in tropical countries. However, the economic impact of these events on the Brazilian public health system remains...

Abstract This study investigates the evolving urban morphology and landscape fragmentation in Kuwait by integrating fractal analysis, spatial statistics, and landscape metrics. Utilizing historical land use and land cove...

In semi-arid environments there is often a lack of data on hydrological variables that limits the ability to understand key hydrological processes. In response to this need, geomorphometric analysis is a quantitative app...

Abstract Conventional methods for analyzing components in rainwater are generally performed on samples collected in a sampler. Because the components and concentrations contained in individual raindrops differ, a rainwat...

Abstract Background Sodium overload-induced cell death is a novel mode of cell death that differs from other modes and is a very promising new target for cancer therapy. In addition, sodium overload-induced cell death pl...

Abstract With the outward expansion of university campuses toward suburban areas, the modern campus has evolved into an increasingly independent social space, providing an organizational setting in which users’ daily a...

This study is aimed to assess the added value of Regional Climate Models (RCMs) with respect to their driving Global Climate Models (GCMs) focused on the behavior of precipitation over South America (SA) at different tem...

Abstract Purpose This study examines the demographic, spatial, and economic determinants of household access to electricity in Nigeria, a country characterized by persistent energy poverty and pronounced infrastructure i...

Several recreational surface waters in Salta, Argentina, were selected to assess their quality. Seventy percent of the measurements exceeded at least one of the limits established by international legislation becoming...

Abstract Spatial variations in stiffness and mass density make the free-vibration behavior of tridirectionally functionally graded material (3D-FGM) beams highly sensitive to material gradation, while computationally eff...

The cactus moth, Cactoblastis cactorum mainly distributed throughout central and northeastern Argentina was intentionally introduced in the Caribbean region in 1957 as a biological control agent of cacti species of the g...

Abstract Traditional bridge structural condition assessments struggle to integrate the physical topological information of BIM models with the spatiotemporal evolution of long-term monitoring data, resulting in low asses...

This study characterizes wet and dry conditions in southern South America, defined through the standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI), considering short and long timescales. Prior to analysis, a regio...

Fine scale patterns of genetic structure and dispersal in Triatoma infestans populations from Argentina was analysed. A total of 314 insects from 22 domestic and peridomestic sites from the locality of San Martín (Capay...

Abstract Age at marriage is a key demographic indicator closely linked to women’s education, fertility behaviour, and broader processes of social transformation. In India, the Singulate Mean Age at Marriage (SMAM) for ...

The western coast of South America is one of the most seismogenic zones of the world, due to the subduction of the oceanic Nazca Plate below South America. The spatial distribution of large-magnitude earthquakes or of th...

Abstract Particulate matter (PM) poses a significant public health concern, particularly in industrialized communities. While modern sophisticated air monitors like those deployed by the United States Environmental Prote...
