Varying Performance of Low-Cost Sensors During Seasonal Smog Events in Moravian-Silesian Region

Atmosphere
Air pollution monitoring in industrial regions like Moravia-Silesia faces challenges due to complex environmental conditions. Low-cost sensors offer a promising, cost-effective alternative for supplementing data from regulatory-grade air quality ...

A Lagrangian Perspective on the Growth of Midlatitude Storms [PDF]

arXiv
Extratropical storms dominate midlatitude climate and weather and are known to grow baroclinicaly and decay barotropicaly. Traditionally, quantitative climatic measures of storm growth have been mostly based on Eulerian measures, taking into account the mean state of the atmosphere and how those affect eddy growth, but they do not consider the ...

Intratracheal Administration of Nanoplastics With Varying Surface Hydrophobicity Results in Coarsely Vacuolated Alveolar Macrophages, Transient Respiratory Inflammation, and Mild Collagen Deposition

Nano Select, EarlyView.
Nanoplastic hydrophobicity drives adverse effects in the lung. Single intratracheal administration of poly(vinyl acetate‐co‐alcohol) nanoplastics with varying surface hydrophobicity shows that the more hydrophobic nanoplastics increase prevalence of coarsely vacuolated alveolar macrophages, induce transient respiratory inflammation and mild collagen ...

Unearthing the impact of earthquakes: A review of economic and social consequences

Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, EarlyView.
Abstract The purpose of this paper is to offer a comprehensive overview of the socioeconomic effects of earthquakes. We begin with a thorough literature review. Following this, we assess policy measures taken in response to major earthquakes, drawing on existing research to formulate insights and recommendations that policymakers can use to effectively

The US farm credit system and agricultural development: Evidence from an early expansion, 1920–1940

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 105, Issue 1, Page 3-26, January 2023., 2023
Abstract I explore the impact of the Production Credit Associations (PCAs), an arm of the early Farm Credit System, on agricultural yield and input use following the farm crisis of the 1920s. Like many low‐ and middle‐income countries today, farmers in the early 20th century United States found it difficult to access credit.

Weathering the storms of climate change: Preparing persons with disabilities and the physiatrists who provide their care for extreme hurricanes

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate‐driven disasters have disproportionate and often devastating consequences on individuals with disabilities. Warming ocean and air temperatures are fueling more extreme tropical cyclones, further endangering those living in at‐risk regions.

Weathering the storm: Effect of climate change on acute stroke care and stroke rehabilitation

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change has deleterious effects on stroke recovery, disproportionately affecting populations with increased stroke incidence. These effects start prior to the acute care hospitalization, precipitated by environmental etiologies and are sustained throughout the life course of stroke survivors.

Impact of tobacco smoking in association with H2BFWT, PRM1 and PRM2 genes variants on male infertility

Andrologia, Volume 54, Issue 11, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Tobacco's genotoxic components can cause a wide range of gene defects in spermatozoa such as single‐ or double‐strand DNA breaks, cross‐links, DNA‐adducts, higher frequencies of aneuploidy and chromosomal abnormalities. The aim in this study was to determine the correlation between sperm quality determined by standard parameters, sperm DNA ...

Variations of Martian surface albedo: Evidence for yearly dust deposition and removal [PDF]

The purpose is to determine the degree, spatial distribution and timing of the deposition and removal of dust storm fallout, and to relate the current patterns of dust deposition and removal to the long-term evolution of the Martian surface.
