A European precipitation index for extreme rain‐storm and flash flood early warning
Meteorological Applications, 2012 Extreme rain storms are known for triggering devastating flash floods in various regions of Europe and particularly along the Mediterranean coasts. Despite recent notable advances in weather forecasting, most operational early warning systems for extreme rainstorms and flash floods are still based on rainfall measurements from rain gauges and weather ...

Hot spots of extreme precipitation change under 1.5 and 2 °C global warming scenarios
Weather and Climate Extremes, 2021 Climate change hot spots are the regions where the climate variables are particularly responsive to global warming. This study quantifies the hot spots of extreme precipitation based on the simultaneous changes in the intensity (ΔI), frequency (ΔF), and ...

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Transcripts enriched in codons that trigger P‐site tRNA‐mediated mRNA decay possess stable mRNA
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.PTMD codons were first described by Mendel et al. as mediators of an mRNA decay pathway dependent on the human protein CNOT3, homologous to yeast Not5. Our findings confirm that PTMD codons destabilize transcripts; however, unlike in yeast, the human pathway specifically targets and slightly destabilizes primarily stable mRNAs.

Indexes of temperature and precipitation extremes in Podgorica in the period 1951-2008
Journal of the Geographical Institute Jovan Cviji?, SASA, 2011 World Meteorological Organization has defined a series of indices and proposed using of them in research of climate changes, in analysis of air temperature extremes changes, quantities of precipitation and other meteorological parameters. In large part of the Montenegro, annual values of air temperature and quantity of precipitation show statistically ...
