Abstract Near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has emerged as a potential alternative method for determination of breakpoints equivalent to lactate thresholds. However, the optimal NIRS location remains unclear, particularly in Nordic skiing, which requires both upper‐ and lower‐limb contributions.

An agent-based model to explore scenarios of adaptation to climate change in an alpine tourism destination [PDF]
The European Alpine region is one of the most sensitive to climate change impacts. ClimAlpTour is a European research project of the Alpine Space Programme, dealing with the expected decrease in snow and ice cover.

Abstract figure legend Upper panel, high‐altitude training typically encompasses 3–4 weeks of altitude exposure combined with training either at altitude or at sea level. Following this, a response for haemoglobin mass (Hbmass) is seen in two of three studies, which coincides with some performance gains in <50% of studies.

Mechanisms of haemoglobin mass expansion following heat stress
Abstract figure legend Theorised mechanisms of heat stress‐induced erythropoiesis which may facilitate the expansion of haemoglobin mass. A, acute: heat stress‐induced renal ischaemia. Redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys to facilitate thermoregulation during heat stress could reduce renal oxygen delivery, subsequently lowering renal PO2${

Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...

Fossil Hegemony and Capitalist Realism in Tropic of Orange
ABSTRACT This article examines Karen Tei Yamashita's Tropic of Orange (1997) through the lens of Mark Fisher's influential concept ‘capitalist realism’. Scholars of petrofiction have pointed to a political ambivalence in the representation of fossil fuels, where a better understanding of fossil capital can overwhelm as much as galvanize.
