American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Given the threats of climate change, we investigated the impact of high temperatures separately and in combination with reduced soil water on leaf heat tolerance for five oaks (Fagaceae) with overlapping ranges in southern California, USA: Quercus agrifolia and Q. chrysolepis (evergreen species), Q. douglasii and Q.

EnergiesThe Cool Roof concept, known for its efficiency in summer due to high temperatures during this period, employs a light coating that covers the roof to prevent the absorption of heat and maintain lower indoor temperatures. This study integrates a chemical

Journal of Engineering, 2014 The roof and walls in the urban areas contribute to major share in the absorption of solar radiations and also retard the outflow of the absorbed radiation from the building envelope, thereby increasing the global warming by inducing the heat island ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The middle Permian represents a critical interval in therapsid evolution, when gorgonopsians emerged as some of the first specialized apex predators within terrestrial ecosystems. Despite their significance, the early diversification of Gorgonopsia in Gondwana remains poorly understood due to scarcity and fragmentary material.

Cool roofs and cool pavements application in Acharnes, Greece
Sustainable Cities and Society, 2018 Abstract The continuously increasing urban temperature results to the well-known urban heat island phenomenon. Cool roofs and cool pavements are very promising mitigation techniques as they can be easily applied to new and existing buildings as well as urban spaces.

Thermal-physics and energy performance of an innovative green roof system: The Cool-Green Roof
, 2015 Given the large amount of worldwide energy use associated to buildings' life cycle, in recent years various energy efficient strategies have been proposed to reduce buildings' environmental impact, e.g. green and cool roofs.

Exceptional preservation informs the paleobiology of tapinocephalid dinocephalians
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The tapinocephalid dinocephalian Moschops is one of the most iconic taxa of the middle Permian, yet its paleobiology remains one of the least well‐known. Here, we address some aspects of paleoneurology and paleobiology of Moschops using CT scanning of four well preserved skulls from the upper Abrahamskraal Formation of South Africa. Two of the

Heat Stress in Quail: Impacts on Health and Productivity, and Mitigation Strategies
Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.Heat stress disrupts physiological homeostasis in quail, inducing oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, and metabolic imbalance, which impair growth, reproduction, product quality, and welfare. Integrating nutritional, environmental, and genetic–epigenetic strategies enhances thermotolerance, sustains productivity, and supports climate‐smart quail ...

A Comparative Study of Cool Roof and Green Roof Performance in Tropical Area of Indonesia [PDF]
This study examines the performance of cool roofs and green roofs in a tropical climate in Indonesia. It compares a modified pitched roof designed as a cool roof with a flat roof equipped with vegetation functioning as a green roof on single storey ...
