largest cities is projected to increase by five to ten times under the mid-level, representative concentration pathway 4.5 climate scenario27. A 2017 study, which included 32 locations in Mexico, Brazil and Chile, projected that, under multiple climate-change scenarios, midcentury decreases in cold...
The Larsen Ice Shelf, located on the eastern side of the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) (Fig.1a) has lost approximately 18,000 km2(20%) of its surface area since 19951,2,3. The northernmost section, the Larsen A Ice Shelf, disintegrated in the summer of 19954, shortly followed by the coll...
Changes in springtime winds high above the South Pole are set to trigger higher than usual temperatures and fire-prone weather conditions in Australia, an international study involving Monash scientists has warned. "Attention so far has focused on the importance of stratospheric warming in the Norther...
proved representative of this phenomenon. The researchers sampled 139 bullfrogs from various locales such as Brazil, Japan, South Korea and the United States, finding that those who experienced lower minimum temperatures during the coldest month of the year had greater bacterial diversity than their ...

The variation of average minimum and maximum values of temperature and humidity per month confirmed the expected seasonal variability, with higher temperature and lower humidity values during the summer months. Finally, using the definition of heatwaves mentioned in the materials and methods section, ...
