Understanding the regional relationships between climate change and crop production will benefit strategic decisions for future agricultural adaptation in China. In this study, the combined effects of climatic factors on spring wheat phenophase and grain yield over the past three decades in Inner Mongolia, China, were explored based on the daily climate variables from 1981-2014 and detailed obs...

Reference evapotranspiration (ET0) and real (ET) are vital components in hydrological processes climate-related studies. Understanding their variability estimation is equally crucial for micro-meteorology agricultural planning processes. The primary goal of this study was to analyze compare estimates from two different climatic regions Kenya using long-term quality controlled synoptic station d...

[1] MODIS-based leaf area index (LAI) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) are used to examine detailed information regarding actual growing season and total annual production for various regions. Overall, MODIS LAI has larger variability and demonstrates more information regarding the evolution and structure of the seasonal vegetation characteristics. In contrast, the NDVI saturat...

effects of neglecting climatic patterns in buildings are more intense in severe climates such as tropical. it isresulting an excessive consumption of fossil fuels and consequently environmental pollutions in and after modern era. the objective of this research is to find climate-oriented intentions and solutions in tropical areas and compare them with dezful and bandar-e-lenge vernacular houses...

Living with fire is a challenge for human communities because they are influenced by socio-economic, political, ecological and climatic processes at various spatial and temporal scales. Over the course of 2 days, the authors discussed how communities could live with fire challenges at local, national and transnational scales. Exploiting our diverse, international and interdisciplinary expertise...

INTRODUCTION Cholera, an infectious diarrheal disease, has been shown to be associated with large scale hydroclimatic processes. The sudden and sporadic occurrence of epidemic cholera is linked with high mortality rates, in part, due to uncertainty in timing and location of outbreaks. Improved understanding of the relationship between pathogenic abundance and climatic processes allows predictio...
