The coupled climate models used in the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change are evaluated. The evaluation is focused on 12 regions of Australia for the daily simulation of precipitation, minimum temperature, and maximum temperature. The evaluation is based on probability density functions and a simple quantitative measure of how well each climate model can c...

We report the first observation of a ~27 day period component in daily maximum temperature recorded at widely spaced locations in Australia. The ~27 day component, extracted by band pass filtering, is correlated with the variation of daily solar radio flux during years close to solar minimum. We demonstrate that the correlation is related to the emergence of regions of solar activity on the Sun...

This study examined the effect of weather and seasonality on hipfracture incidence in older adults residing in New York City. A total off 66,346 patients aged > or = 65 years who sustained a fracture of the femoralneck or intertrochanteric region from 1985 to 1996 comprised the study population. Hip fractures were more likely to occur in the winter than in any of the other seasons (P<.001). Fac...

We present an analysis of seasonal cycle of the last 50 years of records of surface temperature in Italy. We consider two data sets which synthesize the surface temperature fields of Northern and Southern Italy. Such data sets consist of records of daily maximum and minimum temperature. We compute the best estimate of the seasonal cycle of the variables considered by adopting the cyclograms’ te...

Water and thermal resources are changing significantly because of climate change, further affecting important crops, such as grains, worldwide. Previous studies on change trends their impacts grain yield were mainly conducted a single time scale, with few multiple scales. Therefore, here, data statistics from 1978–2021 in the Henan Province used to assess how water changes impact variation anal...

BACKGROUND: Seed aging is an important problem in developing countries which seeds stored in inappropriate condition. OBJECTIVES: Current research was carried out to study the effect of seed aging on quantitative parameters of wheat seeds (Chamran cultivar). METHODS: Experiment was carried out based on randomized complete block desi...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of non-starch polysaccharides of barley supplemented with multi-enzyme on growth performance and physiological characteristics of broilers. a total number of 375 one day old ross-308 broiler chickens were allocated randomly to 3 treatments with 5 replicates at 2 rearing period (including 1 to 21 and 22 to 42 days of age) using a crd statistical...

abstract in this research, four meteorological set of data including maximum temperature, minimum temperature, precipitation and radiation from echo-g, under a1scenario have been used for climate change detection over south khorasan. echo-g is a general circulation model that currently is used in hamburg university and korea meteorological research institute. in this research climate change ass...
