Olive fruit dry weight, oil concentration and the proportions of individual fatty acids in the oil are influenced by environmental variables, such as ambient temperatures, between flowering and harvest. An increase in mean ...

There are different methodologies to compute daily mean temperatures (DMT), including averaging the 24-hourly temperature values, readings at specific times throughout the day or simply averaging the minimum and maximum ...

Abstract: Non-enzymatic browning predictions in reduced-moisture foods stored over one year at “ambient” temperature, were made using, a) realistic environmental daily (and seasonal) temperature fluctuations, and b) a ...

La Plata Basin is one of the most important agriculture and hydropower producing regions worldwide. Extreme climate events such as cold and heat waves and frost events have a significant socio-economic impact. This work ...

La Plata Basin has a considerable socio-economic value, being one of the most important agricultural and hydropower-producing regions in the world. In this region, there is increasing evidence of a changing climate with ...

A MOS (Model Output Statistics) multiple regression equation for the prediction of daily minimum air temperature at the city of Bauru, in São Paulo State, is developed. The multiple regression equation, obtained using ...

Most research in physiological ecology has focused on the effects of mean changes in temperature under the classic "hot vs cold" acclimation treatment

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a severe public health problem globally. Both epidemiological and laboratory studies have shown that ambient temperature could affect the transmission and survival ...

Seed germination in many species from fire-prone ecosystems may be triggered by heat shock and/or temperature fluctuation, and how species respond to such fire-related cues is important to understand post-fire regeneration ...
