Diversity and biotic homogenization of urban land-snail faunas in relation to habitat types and macroclimate in 32 central European cities.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The effects of non-native species invasions on community diversity and biotic homogenization have been described for various taxa in urban environments, but not for land snails.

Agreement in late twentieth century Southern Hemisphere stratospheric temperature trends in observations and CCMVal-2, CMIP3 and CMIP5 models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present a comparison of temperature trends using different satellite and radiosonde observations and climate (GCM) and chemistry-climate model (CCM) output, focusing on the role of photochemical ozone depletion in the Antarctic lower stratosphere ...

Rare event simulation for multiscale diffusions in random environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider systems of stochastic differential equations with multiple scales and small noise and assume that the coefficients of the equations are ergodic and stationary random fields.

On the Applicability of Temperature and Precipitation Data from CMIP3 for China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Global Circulation Models (GCMs) contributed to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) and are widely used in global change research.

Analysing the homogeneity of air temperature, relative air humidity, precipitation and wind data series using ‘Climatol’ and meteorological metadata [PDF]

open access: yesAerul şi Apa: Componente ale Mediului, 2017
Errors are inherent in all measurement activity, and meteorology is no exception. Homogenization of climatological series to eliminate disturbances often contained in them, due to changes in the conditions of observations, is a mandatory process to ...

The Effects of Climate Change on Landscape Connectivity and Genetic Clusters in a Small Subtropical and Warm-Temperate Tree

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Climate change is a great threat to global biodiversity and has resulted in serious ecological consequences. Although the potential effects of climate change on genetic diversity have recently received much research attention, little research has focused

Construction of a surface air temperature series for Qingdao in China for the period 1899 to 2014

open access: yes, 2018
. We present a homogenized surface air temperature (SAT) time series at 2 m height for the city of Qingdao in China from 1899 to 2014. This series is derived from three data sources: newly digitized and homogenized observations of the German National ...

Multiple-scale analysis and renormalization for pre-asymptotic scalar transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Pre-asymptotic transport of a scalar quantity passively advected by a velocity field formed by a large-scale component superimposed to a small-scale fluctuation is investigated both analytically and by means of numerical simulations.

Urbanization, environmental stabilization and temporal persistence of bird species: A view from Latin America [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background. A scarcely studied consequence of urbanization is the effect of temporal stabilization of the environment on bird communities. This alteration is thought to dampen environmental variations between day and night, seasons and years, promoting a
