In the Philippines, the team analyzed a 15-day period of heat at the end of April. Though this is usually the hottest time of year for the archipelago, the researchers found that an event of this magnitude would not have happened without the influence of climate change—which...
According to this study, the greater the power-law index, the more effectively driven and natural mixed convection transport heat. Furthermore, if the Reynolds or Grashof numbers are held constant while changing the Richardson number, the efficiency of heat transmission changes. Pure mixed convection...

The Sonalika genotype (V1) exhibited the highest membrane stability index (MSI), recording 87.23% under T2 treatment and 69.78% under T1 treatment across both normal (D1) and late (D2) sown conditions. Similarly, the HUW 711 genotype (V2) achieved its highest MSI of 85.67% under T2 ...
should be explored with the WBGT or alternative heat stress indicators including a human heat balance model, such as the Mean Radiant Temperature (MRT) and the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI)40, always adopting enough spatial resolution and/or parameterised processes to capture heat signals ...
In addition, the Betti number average and the pseudo-homogeneous time t define a new index. A better fitting curve about and the volumetric heat transfer coefficient average is received and its correlation coefficient is 0.95. A paradigm is established on the basis of this novel method for the...

(2) In 2D urban morphology, the percentage of built-up landscape (built-PLAND) and Shannon’s diversity index (SHDI) are the main factors influencing LST. In 3D urban morphology, building density, the sky view factor (SVF), and the area-weighted mean shape index (shape index) are the...
