Overheating Risk Analysis in Long-Term Care Homes—Development of Overheating Limit Criteria

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Climate heat waves occurring in urban centers are a serious threat to public health and wellbeing. Historically, most heat-related mortalities have arisen from excessive overheating of building interiors housing older occupants.

Mechanisms of modification of magnesium– manganese alloys

open access: yesЛитьë и металлургия, 2023
It is shown that the main modifying phases cannot serve as centers of crystallization of α‑phase microcrystals during solidification of magnesium‑manganese alloys.The superheating modification of these alloys is an adsorption‑nanostructural process.

Avian Reproduction in a Warming World

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Weather influences both the distribution and life-history strategies of birds. Temperature ranks amongst the more important weather parameters in this regard since warming springs in temperate and high latitudes and more frequent heat-waves globally have
