Risks to future atoll habitability from climate‐driven environmental changes

open access: yesWIREs Climate Change, 2021
Recent assessments of future risk to atoll habitability have focused on island erosion and submergence, and have overlooked the effects of other climate‐related drivers, as well as differences between ocean basins and island types.

Habitability, Resilience, and Satisfaction in Mexican Homes to COVID-19 Pandemic

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021
Following the 2020 confinement due to the COVID-19 pandemic, housing has become the only safe place and this has exposed inequity in habitability. This research on the reality of confined households and the perception of their homes in the Mexican ...

Distribution and habitability of (meta)stable brines on present-day Mars [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2020
Special Regions on Mars are defined as environments able to host liquid water that simultaneously meets certain temperature and water activity requirements that allow known terrestrial organisms to replicate1,2 and therefore could be habitable.

Characterizing Exoplanet Habitability

open access: yes, 2019
A habitable exoplanet is a world that can maintain stable liquid water on its surface. Techniques and approaches to characterizing such worlds are essential, as performing a census of Earth-like planets that may or may not have life will inform our ...

Towards an urban degrowth: Habitability, finity and polycentric autonomism

open access: yesEnvironment and Planning, 2021
Over the last decade, degrowth has offered a concrete alternative to eco-modernization, projecting a society emancipated from the environmentally destructive imperative of competition and consumption.

The ETNA mission concept: Assessing the habitability of an active ocean world

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Enceladus is an icy world with potentially habitable conditions, as suggested by the coincident presence of a subsurface ocean, an active energy source due to water-rock interactions, and the basic chemical ingredients necessary for terrestrial life ...

A revised lower estimate of ozone columns during Earth’s oxygenated history

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2022
The history of molecular oxygen (O2) in Earth’s atmosphere is still debated; however, geological evidence supports at least two major episodes where O2 increased by an order of magnitude or more: the Great Oxidation Event (GOE) and the Neoproterozoic ...

High on habits [PDF]

open access: yesfrontiers in Neuroscience, 2008
The neural circuits involved in learning and executing goal-directed actions, which are governed by action-outcome contingencies and sensitive to changes in the expected value of the outcome, have been shown to be different from those mediating habits, which are less dependent on action-outcome relations and changes in outcome value. Extended training,

Volcanic controls on the microbial habitability of Mars‐analogue hydrothermal environments

open access: yesGeobiology, 2021
Due to their potential to support chemolithotrophic life, relic hydrothermal systems on Mars are a key target for astrobiological exploration. We analysed water and sediments at six geothermal pools from the rhyolitic Kerlingarfjöll and basaltic ...

The collection of environmental data in the analysis of the hygrothermal and air quality behavior of a cave house in Almería = La toma de datos medioambientales en el análisis del comportamiento higrotérmico y de calidad del aire de una casa cueva en Almería

open access: yesBuilding & Management, 2021
The Technical Building Code (CTE) is the regulatory framework that regulates the basic quality requirements that buildings must meet. The basic documents of the CTE, characterize the basic requirements (energy saving, protection against humidity, indoor ...
