Evaluation of historical and future thermal conditions for almond trees in north-eastern Portugal

June 2023
Teresa Freitas, João Santos, Ana Silva, André Fonseca and Helder Fraga
Climatic Change
This peer-reviewed study uses climate modeling of moderate and high-warming scenarios to assess how climate change will threaten the growing conditions of almond trees in the Trás-os-Montes agrarian region of Portugal.Read More →

Ungulate-vehicle crashes peak a month earlier than 38 years ago due to global warming

June 2023
Michal Bíl, Richard Andrášik, Tomás Kušta, and Tomás Bartonička
Climatic Change
This peer-reviewed study uses car crash and temperature data to find that the annual spring peak in wildlife-vehicle crashes has shifted earlier by a month over the past several decades due to warmer temperatures, indicating ecosystem impacts.Read More →

Climate change, water availability, and the burden of rural women’s triple role in Muyuka, Cameroon

June 2023
Lotsmart Fonjang, Regina Zama
Global Environmental Change
This review article draws from ecofeminist writings, interview-style surveys of women in Cameroon, and water availability data to describe how traditional gender roles amplify the vulnerability of women to climate change impacts in Muyuka, Cameroon.Read More →
