Hedging by using weather derivatives in winter ski tourism [PDF]

open access: yesEkonomika Poljoprivrede (1979), 2018
Tourism, as one of the main driving forces of economic development, is exposed to many risks. Besides frequent fluctuations in foreign currency exchange, prices of fuel and transportation, the tourism industry has become more sensitive to weather ...

Analysis of Weather-Related Growth Differences in Winter Wheat in a Three-Year Field Trial in North-East Germany

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
Winter wheat is the most important crop in Germany, which is why a three-year field trial (2015–2017) investigated the effects of weather on biometric parameters in relation to the phenological growth stage of the winter wheat varieties Opal, Kerubino ...

Reconstructed county-level dataset of crop areas affected by typhoons in China’s coastal regions (1980–2022)

open access: yesScientific Data
The scarcity of long-term, high-resolution typhoon disaster data, particularly for agricultural metrics, poses significant challenges for stable typhoon agricultural disaster risk modeling, limiting predictive accuracy. To address this critical issue, we

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Skillful Seasonal Forecasting of Spatiotemporal Rainfall Anomalies Over High Mountain Asia

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Seasonal forecasting of precipitation variability over High Mountain Asia (HMA) remains a big challenge, as current dynamical models struggle to accurately capture its seasonal evolution.

Variations of aerosol and cloud vertical characteristics based on aircraft measurements in upstream of Shanghai during the 2020 China international import expo

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Vertical information about aerosols and clouds is vital to understanding aerosol transport, aerosol-cloud interactions, and pollution-weather-climate feedback so as to reduce uncertainties in estimating their climatic effects. The combination of sounding,

Weather Risks in the USA

open access: yesEnvironment and Natural Resources Research, 2014
Weather risks are changing faster in North America than anywhere else in the world. Three components contribute to this risk: hazard, exposure (or values at risk) and vulnerability. While hazards are inherently natural, humans determine where values are placed and how they are protected.

Why human connection is the true metric of research success

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Human‐centred mentorship can be shaped by mentor attributes, actions, intrinsic drive and career ambition. Drawing on reflections across Singapore and France, as well as workshop insights from FEBS‐IUBMB ENABLE 2024, this article shows that human‐centred mentorship creates the conditions for sustainable growth, well‐being and retention in research ...
