South Pacific albacore ( Thunnus alalunga ) is a highly migratory tuna species widely distributed throughout 0°–50°S in the Ocean. Climate-driven changes oceanographic condition largely influence distribution, relative abundance, and consequent availability by longline fisheries. In this study, we examined habitat preference spatial distribution of south using generalized additive model fitted ...

Understanding future changes in water supply and requirement under climate change is of great significance for long-term resource management agricultural planning. In this study, daily minimum temperature (Tmin), maximum (Tmax), solar radiation (Rad), precipitation 26 meteorological stations RCP4.5 RCP8.5 MIRCO5 the period 2021–2080 were downscaled by LARS-WG model, average relative humidity (R...

Hillyer From the Department of Biological Sciences and Institute for Global Health, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37235, and the Department of Parasitology and Mycology, Institut Pasteur, Paris, France Running title: SGSs are immun...

Although numerous species distribution models have been developed, most were based on insufficient distribution data or used older climate change scenarios. We aimed to quantify changes in projected ranges and threat level by the years 2061-2080, for 12 European forest tree species under three climate change scenarios. We combined tree distribution data from the Global Biodiversity Information ...

We report on the first diode-pumped laser operation of thulium-doped Lu2O3. With a very compact setup an output power of 75 W and slope efficiencies of around 40% with respect to the incident pump power were achieved at room temperature. Free running laser operation was observed at wavelengths of 2065 nm and 1965 nm. With a birefringent filter the wavelength could continuously be tuned from 192...

Deploying low-carbon electricity systems in developing countries is critical for meeting climate targets while increasing wellbeing. Direct emissions from operating generation are well-understood, however, materials required to construct technologies and their - embodied emissions-are frequently overlooked. This paper quantifies the material implications of proposed 47 African 2015 2065, involv...
