Climate change and harmful benthic microalgae
Sea surface temperatures in the world's oceans are projected to warm by 0.4-1.4 °C by mid twenty-first century causing many tropical and sub-tropical harmful dinoflagellate genera like Gambierdiscus, Fukuyoa and Ostreopsis (benthic harmful algal bloom species, BHABs) to exhibit higher growth rates over much of their current geographic range, resulting ...

Modeling harmful algal blooms in a changing climate [PDF]
This review assesses harmful algal bloom (HAB) modeling in the context of climate change, examining modeling methodologies that are currently being used, approaches for representing climate processes, and time scales of HAB model projections. Statistical models are most commonly used for near-term HAB forecasting and resource management, but ...

What is harm? I offer an account that involves the victim's either suffering some adverse intrinsic change or being prevented from enjoying some beneficial intrinsic change. No one is harmed, I claim, in virtue of relational changes alone. Thus (excepting for contrived cases), there are neither posthumous harms nor, in life, harms of the undiscovered ...

The importance of species interactions in eco-evolutionary community dynamics under climate change
Understanding the dynamics of species interactions can help predict community responses to climate change. A spatially explicit model finds that species interactions and competition mitigate the harmful impacts of climate change, and that temperature ...

Neonatal care in rural Karnataka: healthy and harmful practices, the potential for change
Background Every year four million babies die in the first month of life and a quarter of these take place in India. A package of essential newborn care practices exists, which has a proven impact on reducing mortality, and can be implemented in low ...

Is Climate Change Harming our Kidneys?
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is highly prevalent and is predicted to become the fifth highest cause of premature mortality globally by 2040. There are several risk factors for CKD and the environmental conditions play an important role on the development of kidney injury.

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) caused by the toxin-producing cyanobacteria Microcystis spp., can increase water column pH. While the effect(s) of these basified conditions on the bloom formers are a high research priority, how these pH shifts affect other ...

Increasing the level of environmental safety during explosive destruction of rocks in quarries
The type of explosive is decisive during blasting, not only to select the network of wells and to improve the quality of rock crushing, but also to reduce the environmental impact and loss of non-metallic minerals associated with excessive rock crushing ...

Evaluating the growth potential of harmful cyanobacteria in aquatic environments under climate change scenarios [PDF]
: Aim Neotropical freshwater environments face severe threats from climate change, posing significant risks to global water security. Extreme hydrological events, such as torrential rains and prolonged droughts, are expected to become more frequent and ...
