Powerful Geographies: Spatial Shifts in the Architecture of Globalization

Predicting phenological shifts in a changing climate.

Phenological shifts constitute one of the clearest manifestations of climate warming. Advanced emergence is widely reported in high-latitude ectotherms, but a significant number of species exhibit delayed, or no change in, emergence. Here we present a mechanistic theoretical framework that reconciles these disparate observations and predicts population-level phenological patterns based solely o...

COUNTEREXAMPLES IN CHAOTIC GENERALIZED SHIFTS

‎In the following text for arbitrary $X$ with at least two elements‎, ‎nonempty countable set $Gamma$‎ ‎we make a comparative study on the collection of generalized shift dynamical systems like $(X^Gamma,sigma_varphi)$ where $varphi:GammatoGamma$ is an arbitrary self-map‎. ‎We pay attention to sub-systems and combinations of generalized shifts with counterexamples regarding Devaney‎, ‎exact Dev...

Comparison of the correlation between sleep quality and quality of life of nurses in rotating shifts and fixed shifts

Introduction: Due to the nature of nursing practice, nurses face a variety of stressful situations in the workplace. They are at risk of insomnia since they work irregularly in the morning, evening and night shifts. The irregular sleep-wake pattern in nurses decreases their sleep quality and sleep duration, and also leads to their poor occupational performance. The present study was conducted t...

Global warming shifts Pacific tropical cyclone location

[1] A global high‐resolution (∼40 km) atmospheric general circulation model (ECHAM5 T319) is used to investigate the change of tropical cyclone frequency in the North Pacific under global warming. A time slice method is used in which sea surface temperature fields derived from a lower‐ resolution coupled model run under the 20C3M (in which historical greenhouse gases in 20th century were prescr...
