Human-induced climate change threatens ecosystems and human health on a global scale. In order to withstand the worldwide threats to ecosystems, the concept of sustainable development was introduced during the 1980s. Since then, this concept has been widely applied to guide and focus policy-making. The present article reviews the health consequences of human-induced climate change on sustainabl...

The adverb ”then” is among the most frequent English temporal adverbs, being also capable of filling a variety of semantic roles. The identification of anaphoric usages of ”then” is important for temporal expression resolution, while the temporal relationship usage is important for event ordering. Given that previous work has not tackled the identification and temporal resolution of anaphoric ”...

Here, we review consumer-resource (C-R) theory to show that the paradox of enrichment is a special case of a more general theoretical result. That is, we show that increased energy flux, relative to the consumer loss rate, makes C-R interactions top heavy (i.e., greater C:R biomass ratio) and less stable. We then review the literature on the attributes of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems to a...

nowadays, temperature increase, rainfall decrease and its effect on the time dynamics of carbon fixation cycle still are faced by many uncertainties. net primary production (npp) is one of the main factors of carbon cycle; precipitation and temperature measurement are known as two useful tools to study different ecosystems stability and resilience in terms of climate. hence, in this study, npp ...
