PHYSICAL ADAPTATION OF CHILDREN TO LIFE AT HIGH-ALTITUDE

, 1995
Children permanently exposed to hypoxia at altitudes of > 3000 m above sea level show a phenotypical form of adaptation. Under these environmental conditions, oxygen uptake in the lungs is enhanced by increases in ventilation, lung compliance, and ...

Reference Interval Establishment for Four Coagulation Parameters Using Indirect Methods in a High‐Altitude Chinese Population: A Retrospective Real‐World Analysis

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study established reference intervals for APTT, PT, TT, and FIB in a Tibetan high‐altitude population using two indirect algorithms, Hoffmann and refineR. The established RIs differed significantly from those of low‐altitude regions, highlighting the need for region‐specific RIs to ensure accurate evaluation of coagulation disorders.

Scaling of Short‐Duration, Summer Rainfall Event Temporal Profiles With Warming Over Great Britain

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Temperature scaling has been used to analyse the temporal profiles of short‐duration, summer rainfall events in Great Britain, for sub‐hourly observed and convection‐permitting climate model (CPM) data. Results show an increase with dewpoint temperature of event total rainfall depth, maximum intensity, concentration and front‐loading.

Extreme Climate Events in Morocco: Historical Analysis and Future Projections Based on CMIP6 Simulations

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Historical observations and bias‐corrected CMIP6 projections reveal intensifying warm extremes, declining cold events and increasingly irregular precipitation patterns across Morocco. Future warming, particularly under SSP5‐8.5, produces an almost linear amplification of heat, aridity and hydrological stress, leading to longer droughts and more intense

Analysis of Climate Variability of Homogeneous Regions of Rainfall Anomalies in Southeast South America (SESA)

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
We studied rainfall variability and cyclicity in six Homogeneous Regions of Rainfall Anomalies (HRRA) in Southeast South America (SESA) from 1961 to 2020 to understand the occurrence of droughts and above‐average rainfall. We use a continental analysis scale, focusing on seasonal, interannual, and interdecadal cycles, and their association with modes ...

Importance of Testosterone on Adaptation at High Altitude

, 2015
Adaptation or natural acclimatization results from the interaction between genetic variations and acclimatization resulting in individuals with ability to live and reproduce without problems at high altitudes.

Evaluating Reference Evapotranspiration (ETo) Calculation Methods and Quantifying Climate‐Driven Change in Irrigation Demand Across Nepal's Terai

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Framework illustrating the comparison of different reference evapotranspiration (ETo) estimation methods and the integration of baseline ETo, crop water requirement (CWR), and irrigation water requirement (IWR) calculations with downscaled CMIP6 climate projections under SSP245 and SSP585 scenarios for the mid‐century and late‐century periods across ...
