Thermal performances of a bioclimatic building in hot and dry tropical climate

Revue des Énergies Renouvelables, 2013
This paper is concerned with the thermal comfort of a double-walls seven stories bioclimatic building built with local construction materials. First of all, we use a numerical code to investigate the construction materials thermal inertia effects on the ...

Bioclimatic Characterization of Jalisco (Mexico) Based on a High-Resolution Climate Database and Its Relationship with Potential Vegetation

Remote Sensing
Bioclimatic classifications provide critical insights into the relationships between climatic variables and the geographic distribution of organisms. Advances in high-resolution climate data, geobotanical integration, and spatial analysis techniques have

Behavioral, Ecological, and Morphological Data Suggest a Close Relationship Between the Ant Colobopsis truncata and the Gall Wasp Aphelonyx cerricola

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Aphelonyx cerricola and the different stages that make this gall colonizable by ants. ABSTRACT Wasps of the family Cynipidae are known to induce galls of a species‐specific morphology, which during senescence provide a refuge for secondary insect fauna, especially ants.

Climatic–Anthropogenic Synergy Drives Escalating Minimum Area Requirements and Connectivity‐Protection Mismatch in a Karst‐Endemic Primate

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Climate change and anthropogenic activities drive antagonistic degradation of landscape connectivity for endangered François’ langur (1987–2024), causing 48.8% habitat loss, north‐south fragmentation, and centroid migration (1.2 km/yr). Despite protected areas buffering connectivity, static management fails dynamic priority habitats; we propose ...

Museomics Deciphers the Phylogeographic Differentiation and Conservation Status of a Montane Pheasant

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Museum specimens provide a rich source of historical DNA, enabling insights into phylogenetic relationships and demographic history of the endangered Koklass Pheasant. Our findings uncovered a previously unrecognized population in Guizhou province and highlighted elevated extinction risk in populations from Anhui province and Southern China, informing ...

Genomic Investigations Unveil the Genetic Underpinnings of Environmental Adaptation in African Goat Populations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study integrates genomics and landscape genetics to analyze African goat environmental adaptation. Analyzing 1591 samples, it finds population structure differentiates geographically into four groups, with gene flow between wild Yura goats and North Africans.

Species Distribution Models Reveal the Resilience of Protected Areas for Conserving an Endemic Amazonian Canid

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the impacts of climate change on the distribution of the Amazon‐endemic canid Atelocynus microtis, highlighting projected habitat loss under future scenarios (SSP2–4.5 and SSP5–8.5). Despite substantial reductions in suitable habitat, a significant proportion remains within Protected Areas, emphasizing their critical

Bioclimatic Zoning of the Pantanal

RAEGA - O Espaço Geográfico em Análise
Human thermal perception, or thermal comfort, is a critical variable that directly influences the health, productivity, and well-being of populations. However, specific studies on thermal comfort in the Pantanal and its sub-regions are scarce. This study analyzes the distribution of thermal comfort classes in the Pantanal and its sub-regions using the ...

Future projection of habitat suitability and potential distribution of main European cereal bugs using MaxEnt modelling

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Global climate change will modify the distribution areas of important cereal bugs by changing environmental conditions. Information on their dispersal possibilities can help to clarify their future economic importance and damage potential. In this study, we modelled the current potential and future distribution of four important pests by using the ...
