Potencial de redução de temperatura do ar em aviários de frangos de corte durante extremos de calor
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBrasilZootecniaUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em ZootecniaCentro de Ciências Rurais, 2019-02-25)
Climatic conditions mean a risk that may impact the production of broilers depending on the vulnerability of facilities and birds. The efficiency of evaporative cooling systems is limited by predictable external weather ...
Energy efficiency, thermal resilience, and health during extreme heat events in low-income housing in Argentina
(Elsevier Science SA, 2021-01)
Extreme heat events result in higher indoor temperatures in buildings, increased energy consumption, and more frequent health problems, mainly between the children, the elderly over 65, and vulnerable low-income people. ...
Vulnerability to warming in a desert amphibian tadpole community: the role of interpopulational variation
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-12)
Current assessments of organismal vulnerability to global warming are focusing on physiological trait-based indices that may allow biologically sounding estimates of heating risk at the local scale. However, intraspecific ...
Vulnerability to heat-related mortality in Latin America: A case-crossover study in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Santiago, Chile and Mexico City, Mexico
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2008)
Background Factors affecting vulnerability to heat-related mortality are not well understood. Identifying susceptible populations is of particular importance given anticipated rising temperatures from climatic change. ...
Understanding heat stress in beef cattle
(Brazilian Journal of Animal Science, 2023)
Gut microbiota of drosophila subobscura contributes to its heat tolerance and is sensitive to transient thermal stress
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
The gut microbiota can contribute to host physiology leading to an increase of resistance to abiotic stress conditions. For instance, temperature has profound effects on ectotherms, and the role of the gut microbiota on ...
Clima urbano, risco climático e vulnerabilidade socioespacial mediados pela produção do espaço urbano em cidades paulistas (São Carlos, Marília e Presidente Prudente)
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2019-04-10)
A pesquisa pautou-se em uma abordagem geográfica associada ao clima urbano, baseado no Sistema do Clima Urbano (S.C.U.) e na produção do espaço geográfico, subsidiados pela perspectiva analítica da Geografia do Clima. ...
Heat Shock Protein 60 Antibodies Are Associated With a Risk Factor for Cardiovascular Disease in Bedridden Elderly Patients
(2020-06-12)
Frailty, in elderly people, represents multiple deficiencies in different organs and is characterized by decreased physiological reserves and greater vulnerability to stressors. Bedridden elderly, with cardiovascular disease ...
