Tropical Cyclone Losses in the USA and the Impact of Climate Change: A Trend Analysis Based on a New Dataset [PDF]

Economic losses caused by tropical cyclones have increased dramatically. It can be assumed that most losses are due to increased prosperity and a greater tendency for people to settle in exposed areas, but also that the growing incidence of severe ...

Engineering Diesters From Saturated Fatty Acids and C2–C4 Diols: How Branching Influence Rheological, Flow, and Crystallization Properties

European Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, EarlyView.
The image illustrates the scope of the work, that is, the synthesis of diesters from saturated fatty acids (C9–C16) and linear or branched diols and the investigation of the relationship between molecular structure and rheological, crystallization, and oxidation stability properties.

The emission of pollutants from ornamental shrubs during forest fires

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the combustion behavior, emissions, and aerosol production of four plant species: Laurus nobilis, Cistus monspeliensis, Photinia fraseri, and Cupressus sempervirens. The Heat Release Rate (HRR) and Smoke Production Rate (SPR) were measured, revealing that Cupressus sempervirens had the highest HRR and longest flame ...

Protecting threatened species and music traditions

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Musical instruments are indispensable to music traditions worldwide and often made from natural materials derived from species that are increasingly endangered. International trade threatens the survival of some of these species, as addressed by their inclusion in the UN Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora ...

Integrating climate change, biological invasions, and infectious wildlife diseases

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Climate change is likely to affect infectious diseases that are facilitated by biological invasions, with repercussions for wildlife conservation and zoonotic risks. Current invasion management and policy are underprepared for the future risks associated with such invasion‐related wildlife diseases. By considering evidence from bioclimatology, invasion

Optimizing Haskap Berry (Lonicera caerulea) Storage Conditions and Monitoring Antioxidant Systems

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Haskap is an emerging crop with a short shelf life, and optimal storage practices remain undefined. This study shows that storage at 0°C best preserves haskap quality by reducing weight loss and enhancing antioxidant systems, including elevated phenols, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and antioxidant enzyme activity compared to 4°C and 8°C.
