The availability of climatic data, especially on a daily time step, has become very rare in West Africa over the last few years due to the high costs of climate data monitoring. This scarcity of climatic data is a huge obstacle to conduct hydrological studies over some watersheds. In this context, our study aimed to evaluate the capacity of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite d...

Are you worried about the climate and biodiversity crises related events like heavy rainfalls floods, high carbon emissions, sudden heat waves, or loss of species? already doing something to help solve these problems? To reduce flood risks, we can give rivers more space by reconnecting floodplains. store slow down change, protect establish wetlands mangroves. make cities cooler in summer, plant...

OBJECTIVE To study the seasonal fluctuation of Aedes aegypti and to correlate its abundance with climate conditions. METHODS Samples were weekly collected in ovitraps in the city of Resistencia, Chaco Province, Argentina, between October 2002 and November 2003. The number of eggs collected was correlated with temperature, relative humidity, evaporation and rainfalls recorded. Pearson's correl...

Measured Fluxes of nitrous acid at Browning Pass, Antarctica were very low, despite conditions that are generally understood as favorable for HONO emissions, including: acidic snow surfaces, an abundance of NO − 3 anions in the snow surface, and abundant UV light for NO − 3 photolysis. Photochemical modeling suggests noon time HONO fluxes 5 of 5–10 nmol m −2 h −1 ; the measured fluxes, however,...

Snow algae inhabit unique environments such as alpine and high latitudes, and can grow and bloom with visualizing on snow or glacier during spring-summer. The chrysophytes Ochromonas smithii and Ochromonas itoi are dominant in yellow-colored snow patches in mountainous heavy snow areas from late May to early June. It is considered to be effective utilizing the xanthophyll cycle and holding suns...
