USING HIGH-RESOLUTION GLOBAL CLIMATE MODELS FROM THE PRIMAVERA PROJECT TO CREATE A EUROPEAN WINTER WINDSTORM EVENT SET

Using high-resolution global climate models from the PRIMAVERA project to create a European winter windstorm event set

PRIMAVERA (process-based climate simulation: advances in high-resolution modelling and European climate risk assessments) was a European Union Horizon 2020 project whose primary aim was to generate advanced and well-evaluated high-resolution global climate model datasets for the benefit of governments, business and society in general.Following cons

Mitigating Hotspot Issue in WSN Using Sensor Nodes with Varying Initial Energy Levels and Quantification Algorithm

A typical Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) uses multihop communication rather than direct transmission.In a multi-hop communication, the sensor node communicates the sensed data to its neighbor node, which is comparatively closer to the L-Histidine sink and the receiving node will forward the data to its neighbor node.This process continues until the

Changes in the body size of black-veined white, Aporia crataegi (Lepidoptera: Pieridae), recorded in a natural population in response to different spring weather conditions and at different phases of an outbreak

Changes in body size in response to environmental factors (especially temperature) is one of the crucial traits studied in connection with insect adaptation to climate change.However, current data on the strength and direction of temperature-size responses in Lepidoptera are inconsistent and the reasons for this are unclear.This study investigates
