The need for more efficient buildings to contribute sustainable development has led the establishment of targets in different countries. European countries have presented energy plans respond guidelines achieving near-zero (nZEB). concept can be defined at urban scale (nZED), being a delimited part city with high efficiency and using renewable energies within its boundaries. This research aims ...

The objective of this analysis was to identify topographic and bioclimatic factors that predict occurrence of forest and grassland patches within tropical montane forest-grassland mosaics. We further investigated whether interactions between topography and bioclimate are important in determining vegetation pattern, and assessed the role of spatial scale in determining the relative importance of...

The aim of the present study was to determine the role of specific environmental and climatic factors affecting the distribution and density of Phlebotomus ariasi and P. perniciosus , the proven vectors for Leishmania infantum in Spain. An entomological study was carried out in July 2006 in the province of Lleida with sticky traps set in their diurnal resting places at altitudes ranging from 86...

Strong environmental gradients can affect the genetic structure of plant populations, but little is known as to whether closely related species respond similarly or idiosyncratically to ecogeographic variation. We analysed the extent to which gradients in temperature and rainfall shape the genetic structure of four Stipa species in four bioclimatic regions in Jordan. Genetic diversity, differen...

The purpose of this research is to propose an architectural design for Interpretation Center aimed at the revaluation flora and fauna Cusco, Peru, in 2023. Due lack awareness spaces, deforestation, water pollution, planting introduced species area, there a loss endemic fauna. methodologies used study included climatic analysis location, characterization fauna, application bioclimatic strategies...
