Similarly, changes in terrestrial vegetation, such as the replacement offorestsbytundra, feed back into ...
during which they visited the laboratory for a total of four times: One adaptation night (day 1) and three 32.5-h protocol visits to assess the effect of the light exposure (1 h each, starting 30 min after HBT, as indicated by the yellow boxes) conditions on the human circadian clo...
greenhouse effect on EarthThe greenhouse effect on Earth. Some incoming sunlight is reflected by Earth's atmosphere and surface, but most is absorbed by the surface, which is warmed. Infrared (IR) radiation is then emitted from the surface. Some IR radiation escapes to space, but some is abs...

Sunlight radiation is a fundamental component of our daily lives. Specifically, blue light as well as UV light appear to play a role in the development of oxidative stress, DNA damage, photoaging, and pigmentation through the chromophores in skin tissues. However, several skin problems like psoria...
Scientists have identified specific neural pathways that may mediate the antidepressant effects of bright light therapy, providingnew insightsinto what happens in the brain during depression. Bright light therapy, commonly used by sufferers ofseasonal affective disorder, involves exposure to sunlight or ...
