Comfort in the canopy: How urban treescapes affect human thermal comfort in a temperate climate

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract People living in urban centres are exposed to higher levels of heat stress than those living outside of these areas; this is intensified by the urban heat island effect. Heat stress is a concern for the more vulnerable members of society and can exacerbate many medical conditions; excessive heat increases morbidity and mortality rates.

Impact of a Cold Pool Parameterization on the Diurnal Cycle and Intraseasonal Variability in the GEOS AGCM [PDF]

A gradual transition from shallow to deep convection may be important both to the continental diurnal cycle of precipitation and to the tropical Madden-Julian Oscillation.

Experimental Investigation of Moisture Movement During Freeze–Thaw Cycles and Its Effect on Physical Rock Weathering in Low‐Porosity Alpine Limestone

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The progressive weakening of alpine rockwalls through subcritical cracking, driven by repeated low‐magnitude stress processes, plays a key role in alpine rock weathering. Laboratory studies using acoustic emission (AE) monitoring have shown that thermal stresses from freeze–thaw cycling induce crack propagation, with recent work highlighting ...

Deciphering Freeze–Thaw Dynamics In Rockwalls: A Novel Approach for High Accuracy Regional‐Scale Modeling

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using a large and novel array of instruments on five rockwalls in northern Gaspesia, their respective surface energy balances were calculated and their thermal regimes were measured and modeled to depths exceeding the seasonal frost penetration.

Made in the shade: Leaf responses of native wildflowers to single‐axis photovoltaic solar energy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As solar energy expands globally, balancing renewable power generation with biodiversity and ecosystem health has become an urgent challenge. This study investigated how native wildflowers respond at leaf level to the unique microclimates created by rotating solar panels in California's Central Valley.

Climate requirements for cultivated Liberica coffee (Coffea liberica) and consequences for its use and development as a crop species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The global coffee industry, supporting 25 million smallholder farmers, is vulnerable to climate change. Diversifying the coffee species portfolio beyond Arabica and robusta is a promising intervention. Liberica coffee could provide adaptive capacity, although its climate parameters for cultivation are poorly known.
