Physiological responses of feedlot heifers provided access to different levels of shade
Heat stress has a significant impact on all livestock and poultry species causing economic losses and animal well-being concerns. Providing shade is one heat-abatement strategy that has been studied for years.

Shade Avoidance 3 Mediates Crosstalk Between Shade and Nitrogen in Arabidopsis Leaf Development
After nitrogen treatments, plant leaves become narrower and thicker, and the chlorophyll content increases. However, the molecular mechanisms behind these regulations remain unknown.

UV-B absorbing pigments in spores: biochemical responses to shade in a high-latitude birch forest and implications for sporopollenin-based proxies of past environmental change [PDF]
Current attempts to develop a proxy for Earth's surface ultraviolet-B (UV-B) flux focus on the organic chemistry of pollen and spores because their constituent biopolymer, sporopollenin, contains UV-B absorbing pigments whose relative abundance may ...

Mapping Shade Availability and Use in Zoo Environments: A Tool for Evaluating Thermal Comfort
For many species in zoos, particularly megafauna vulnerable to heat stress, shade is a key environmental resource. However, shade availability has received comparatively less attention than other aspects of the zoo environment.

Yield and quality of nettle herb under diverse sunlight access [PDF]
Introduction: Common nettle (Urtica dioica L.) is one of the most important medicinal plants collected from natural sites. The species prefers to grow in semi shaded stands. Its leaves (pharmacopoeial raw material) are standardised for the content of the

Understanding Microbiome Stability in a Changing World
Microbiomes underpin biogeochemical processes, sustain the bases of food webs, and recycle carbon and nutrients. Thus, microbes are frontline players in determining ecosystem responses to environmental change.

The Shade of Orpheus : Ambiguity and the Poetics of Vmbra in Metamorphoses 10
This paper reexamines the grove of Orpheus in Ovid, Metamorphoses 10, arguing that it is a space of complex ambiguity as activated and determined by the dual meaning of umbra.
