Oil palm modelling in the global land-surface model ORCHIDEE-MICT [PDF]
Abstract. Oil palm is the most productive oil crop that provides ~40 % of the global vegetable oil supply, with 7 % of the cultivated land devoted to oil plants. The rapid expansion of oil palm cultivation is seen as one of the major cause for deforestation emissions and threatens the conservation of rain forest and swamp areas and their associated ...

High-Intensity Interval Training and Moderate-Intensity Continuous Training on Ventricular-Arterial Coupling (VAC) in Young Women With Obesity. [PDF]
Aerobic training, HIIT and MICT, proved effective in improving VAC in young women with obesity as measured by the PWV/GLS ratio. ABSTRACT Aim To investigate the effects of an 8‐weeks of high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) or moderate‐intensity continuous training (MICT) program on ventricular‐arterial coupling (VAC) in young women with obesity ...

Those Apples Don’t Taste Like Oranges! Why ‘Equalising’ HIIT and MICT Protocols Does Not Make Sense [PDF]
First paragraph: We read with interest the recent article by Andreato entitled ‘High-Intensity Interval Training: Methodological Considerations for Interpreting Results and Conducting Research’ [1]. We applaud the author’s call for greater clarity in defining and reporting high-intensity interval training (HIIT) protocols; this is much needed to move ...

Feasibility of Identifying Aerobic‐Fitness Responses to Aerobic Exercise in Alzheimer's Disease: The FIT‐AD SMART Trial [PDF]
Abstract Background Improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness following moderate‐intensity continuous aerobic training (MICT) are well‐documented but show variability across individuals. This heterogeneity among older adults may contribute to inconsistent findings regarding the effects of MICT on cognition in individuals with Alzheimer's disease (AD ...
