Deforestation and climate change are projected to increase heat stress risk in the Brazilian Amazon
Land use change and deforestation can influence local temperature and climate. Here we use a coupled ocean-atmosphere model to assess the impact of savannization of the Amazon Basin on the wet-bulb globe temperature heat stress index under two climate ...

The association between overall health, psychological distress, and occupational heat stress among a large national cohort of 40,913 Thai workers [PDF]
BACKGROUND Occupational heat stress is a well-known problem, particularly in tropical countries, affecting workers, health and well-being. There are very few recent studies that have reported on the effect of heat stress on mental health, or overall ...

Contribution of time of day and the circadian clock to the heat stress responsive transcriptome in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
In Arabidopsis, a large subset of heat responsive genes exhibits diurnal or circadian oscillations. However, to what extent the dimension of time and/or the circadian clock contribute to heat stress responses remains largely unknown.

Plant Responses to Heat Stress: Physiology, Transcription, Noncoding RNAs, and Epigenetics
Global warming has increased the frequency of extreme high temperature events. High temperature is a major abiotic stress that limits the growth and production of plants.

Recapitulation of the Function and Role of ROS Generated in Response to Heat Stress in Plants
In natural ecosystems, plants are constantly exposed to changes in their surroundings as they grow, caused by a lifestyle that requires them to live where their seeds fall.

Phenotypic evidence for local adaptation to heat stress in the marine snail Chlorostoma (formerly Tegula) funebralis [PDF]
Southern California (USA) populations of the intertidal marine snail Chlorostoma (formerly Tegula) funebralis generally occupy warmer climates and are exposed to high air temperatures during low tides more often than northern California populations ...

Regulation of gene expression in chickens by heat stress
High ambient temperatures are a critical challenge in the poultry industry which is a key producer of the animal-based food. To evaluate heat stress levels, various parameters have been used, including growth rates, blood metabolites, and hormones.
