Year All Trailing edge contractions common in interior western US trees under varying disturbances Climate change and disturbances are changing forest tree composition, but it is not clear if disturbances assist trees in tracking their climate ranges. This study shows that the impact of disturbance on...
But it's not only sudden climate events like Eta and Iota that are causing hardship and driving migration from Central America. "Slow-onset events, such as prolonged drought, have been affecting the ability of many people on the edge for years in the region, particularly in the so-called...
This study examines the impact of destructive wildfires on human migration in the contiguous United States, showing that only the most extreme events affected existing migration trends. Migration in response to wildfire building destruction was rare, while immobility was a more common response. Kathryn...
Researchers probe a conundrum: If the world is warming, why are our winters getting colder? Share this: It’s warming, but not as they thought they knew it. ‘Everybody has lots of ideas, but it doesn’t quite add up.’ Aerosols, undersea volcano, El Niño, … 2023’s record heat...
The first consignment of eager Africans has already embarked for US shores and is expected at Baltimore sometime this afternoon. Officials in Washington say the trans-Atlantic migration and employment scheme, the first of its kind ever, will operate on a voluntary basis to begin with. ...
Humanity has long adapted to various climatic conditions through migration, behavioral changes, and technological solutions. But today’s climate change is of a different nature: it is the direct result of human activity, is happening faster than before, and is giving rise to ...
Interspecific hybridization was a key migration mechanism as it facilitated the introgression of late-successional species (Q. petraea) into the pioneer species (Q. robur). The systematic sharing of the same cpDNA haplotype by different white oak species occupying the same stands indicates that ...
Figure 1.Map of the study sites. 2.2. Data Collection The study was conducted in purposely selected four districts in the CRR: the Upper Saloum and Niani in CRR North, Niamina East, and Lower Fulladu West in CRR South in order to cover as much geographic diversity as possible, and thus...
In 2021, we significantly reduced the size, weight and material usage across a range of webcam packaging, with final package size reduced by up to 71%, depending on the product line. This change has also allowed us to reduce the number of pallets required for every shipment - a pallet ca...
