Evidence of climate change impact on Parkinson's disease
Background: Climate change represents a threat to human health. In this research, we have investigated the sensitivity of Parkinson's disease (PD) to climate change, and assessed whether there is any detectable link between climate warming and key PD ...

The theory of justice in a warming climate [PDF]
This article test, whether John Rawls´ Theory of Justice is still relevant in a warming climate. The starting point is Finland, which is assumed as a useful example, as many social indicators suggest that Finland is close to a Rawlsian egalitarian standards of distributive justice.

Classification of atmospheric aerosols over Urmia Lake based on lidar observations [PDF]
This study provides new observational evidence on the contribution of salt-dust plumes originating from the desiccated bed of Urmia Lake. The near-surface atmosphere over the lake bed was investigated using a scanning polarization lidar.

Desert Amplification in a Warming Climate [PDF]
AbstractHere I analyze the observed and projected surface temperature anomalies over land between 50°S-50°N for the period 1950–2099 by large-scale ecoregion and find strongest warming consistently and persistently seen over driest ecoregions such as the Sahara desert and the Arabian Peninsula during various 30-year periods, pointing to desert ...

Anticipatory parental effects in a subtropical lizard in response to experimental warming
Parental effects may produce adaptive or maladaptive plasticity that either facilitates persistence or increases the extinction risk of species and populations in a changing climate.

Inferring future warming in the Arctic from the observed global warming trend and CMIP6 simulations
The emergent constraint approach is a way of using multi-model ensembles to identify the linkage between current/past climate variability and future climate changes, which has been widely used for narrowing down the uncertainty of multi-model projections
