White pines including sugar pine (Pinus lambertiana) in California, southwestern white pine (Pinus strobiformis) in Arizona and New Mexico, and limber pine (Pinus flexilis) in the southern Rocky Mountains have increasing mortality rates due to white pine blister rust, which is caused by a non...

Climate change has led to concerns about increasing river floods resulting from the greater water-holding capacity of a warmer atmosphere1. These concerns are reinforced by evidence of increasing economic losses associated with flooding in many parts of the world, including Europe2. Any changes in r...
To solve this, Pellegrino Musto and his team used computational fluid dynamics simulations to design an improved cooking process. Their method involves repeatedly moving an egg between boiling water (100°C / 212°F) and cooler water (30°C /86°F) every two minutes for a total of 32 ...
a, Long-term mean (in degrees Celsius); b, trends in temperatures (in degrees Celsius per decade), with larger points indicating statistically significant trends (α = 0.1). Red indicates increasing temperature and blue represents decreasing temperature. JFMA, January to April. Extended Data Fig....
While precipitation deficit has smaller negative impact on crop yields in the later period compared to decades ago, indicating increased drought tolerance (Graphs E and F), the positive responsiveness to normal precipitation has becomes smaller in the later period (Graphs G and H). These findings ...
5.6). The decrease in maximum power generation with temperature varies by PV technology and manufacturer, but can be around 0.24–0.45% per degree Celsius (Masters, 2013, Ch. 5.7). Notably, the operating temperature of a PV cell is also affected by the solar irradiance incident on the cell...
Mean global temperatures have risen by 0.8 degrees Celsius since 1975 and are expected to rise by a further 2 to 5 degrees by 2070 [1–3] with local fluctuations predicted to be even more dramatic [4,5]. Average sea temperatures are expected to rise in line with global temperature shifts...
A one-way ANOVA analysis at a p-value inferior to 0.05 demonstrated a considerable distinction between the means of total developmental durations for constant vs. variable temperatures (F = 200.2, df = 28, p < 0.0001, R2 = 0.9775). However, comparisons between each group of constants vs. ...
