The authors extracted from the PubMed and ScienceDirect bibliographic databases all articles published between 1998 and 2009 that were relevant to climate change and food- and waterborne diseases. Any material within each article that provided information about a relevant pathogen and its relationship with climate and climate change was summarized as a key fact, entered into a relational knowle...

Arid and semiarid climates comprise roughly 40% of the earth's terrestrial surface. Deserts are predicted to be extremely responsive to global change because they are stressful environments where small absolute changes in water availability or use represent large proportional changes. Water and carbon dioxide ̄uxes are inherently coupled in plant growth. No documented global change has been mor...

today, climate change is one of the most important scientific and even the political – social issues. the causes of climate change can be divided into natural and human - made. natural factors have the long-term performance and long history, such as the cycle of solar activity, dusts and gases of volcanic eruptions, geodetic and static agents and etc. human-made factors was mainly formed and ac...

drought is still limited in most crops is produced. morphological and physiological knowledge to improve drought resistance under drought conditions created problems important is the fact each of these genetic relationships and processes associated with the exact amount of important plant and grain yield is unknown. the other hand, heritability of grain yield under water is reduced. improve the...

The intensity of climate change impacts on coastal ecosystems is determined by a combination global, regional, and local drivers. However, many studies the impact only consider trends associated with global changes. To assess trends, this research analyzes different climates in zone Mexican Caribbean. These drivers include sea level rise synergy tectonic activity, surface temperature, atmospher...
