Projections of Meteorological Drought and Potential Evapotranspiration Using the RegCM4 Over Northeastern Iran

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
We downscale CanESM2 with the Regional Climate Model version 4 (20 km) and evaluate against 15 stations to derive monthly PET (Hargreaves–Samani) and SPEI for northeastern Iran (1990–2009, 2040–2059, 2080–2099). Results show robust PET increases and a shift toward more negative monthly SPEI—especially April–September—indicating earlier onset and longer

Characterising City Scale Heat Climatology for Australian Climate Zones

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect in Australian cities peaks at night, intensifying under dry conditions, clear skies, increased solar radiation, and low wind speeds. Long‐term observations show that nighttime temperatures in major cities have warmed faster than their rural surroundings and future climate projections fail to capture this disparity ...

GCK-MODY (MODY 2) Caused by a Novel p.Phe330Ser Mutation

ISRN Pediatrics, 2011
Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a monogenic form of diabetes inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. The second most common cause is GCK-MODY due to heterozygous mutations in theGCKgene which impair the glucokinase function through different mechanisms such as enzymatic activity, protein stability, and increased interaction with its ...

Habitat characteristics along spring migration routes of elk, mule deer, and pronghorn in the southern San Juan Mountains

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We evaluated habitat characteristics of spring migration routes and stopover sites for adult female elk (Cervus canadensis), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), and pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) in the San Juan Mountains (2021–2022) and found species‐specific differences in vegetation structure, terrain, and proximity to land cover types relative to ...

Asynchronous Coupling Between China's Forest Canopy Structure and Belowground Biomass Carbon in the 21st Century

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The spatio‐temporal relationship between Forest Canopy Structure (FCS) and Belowground Biomass Carbon (BGBC) is fundamental to determining how optimizing spatial structure can maximize forest carbon‐sink potential in land management. However, the lidar data resolution over the space and time exists limitation, causing the coupling relationship

Greening and Divergent Stability Responses in Central Asian Mountain Grasslands Under the Grassland Ecological Compensation Policy of China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mountain grasslands of Central Asia, recognized as a globally significant biodiversity hotspot and a vital pastoral resource, are presently experiencing profound transformations driven by climate change and evolving grazing practices. This study investigated the multidimensional dynamics of ecosystem stability in the Bayinbuluk grassland of ...
