Paleoclimate and bubonic plague: a forewarning of future risk?
2010
Background Human cases of plague (Yersinia pestis) infection originate, ultimately, in the bacterium's wildlife host populations. The epidemiological dynamics of the wildlife reservoir therefore determine the abundance, distribution and evolution of the pathogen, which in turn shape the frequency, distribution and virulence of human cases. Earlier studies have shown clear evidence of climatic forcing on contemporary plague abundance in rodents and humans. Results We find that high-resolution palaeoclimatic indices correlate with plague prevalence and population density in a major plague host species, the great gerbil (Rhombomys opimus), over 1949-1995. Climate-driven models trained on these…

Divšķautņu asinszāle farmaceitiskajā aprūpē
2020
Mūsdienās augu valsts līdzekļi ir plaši izmantoti visā pasaulē, tai skaitā arī Latvijā. Divšķautņu asinszāle aug Latvijas teritorijā un tās saturošie preparāti ir pieejami Latvijas aptiekās, kaut arī ne tik plašā sortimenā. Pēdējos gados, divšķautņu asinszāles produktu patēriņš ievērojami palielinājas un šobrīd šīs augs ir viens no visvairāk patērētajiem augiem pasaulē. Paaugstinātā stresa līmeņa dēļ mūsu laikos liels cilvēku skaits cieš no depresijas un asinszāles antidepresīvais efekts un arī citas īpašības tiek plaši pētītas. Darba mērķis bija noteikt cik labi farmācijas speciālisti un divšķautņu asinszāles saturošo preparātu lietotāji (aptiekas klienti) ir informēti par šī auga īpašībām…

A special issue, “Remembering the Past and the Future - Korean Culture in a Changing World,” is devoted to understanding Korean culture. Regardless of the bulk of comprehensive information available today, accurate knowledge of the Asian culture in Europe or the European culture in Asia has not become considerably deeper. Sometimes even to the contrary – the old stereotypes continue to exist as part of the packaging for pseudo information adjusted to the short-term goals of the contemporary globalised society, supplemented by travel guides and announcements tailored to the needs of immediate politically economic conjuncture. And yet, this is only the top of the intercultural communication i…
DIURNAL RAINFALL VARIATION IN MALAYA1
1968
ABSTRACT In low latitudes, where seasonal differences of climate are small and usually limited to factors such as winds and precipitation, the weather is largely controlled by diurnal processes. The diurnal variation of rainfall is the most important result of these processes and it is a characteristic part of the climate. In Malaya, diurnal rainfall regimes show seasonal variations, which are closely related to the system of the southeast Asian monsoons. The seasonal variations differ according to location, and three regional types can be recognized, which are found, respectively, at the west coast, the east coast, and at inland stations. Singapore, because of its extreme location at the s…
Development of tree-ring maximum latewood density chronologies for the western Tien Shan Mountains, China: Influence of detrending method and climate…
2013
a b s t r a c t Three tree-ring maximum latewood density chronologies were developed from high elevation Picea schrenkiana sites in the western Tien Shan Mountains using different detrending methods. The new chro- nologies extend back to the early 16th and late 17th centuries, and contain significant late spring and summer temperature signals, respectively. An assessment of varying detrending methods and band-pass filtering the chronologies revealed only slightly differing low frequency trends retained in the maximum latewood densities. The distance between sampling sites and the varying seasonality of limiting climatic factors are identified as key drivers affecting the correlation among t…
Horizontal and elevational phylogeographic patterns of Himalayan and Southeast Asian forest passerines (Aves: Passeriformes)
2011
Aim Zoogeographic patterns in the Himalayas and their neighbouring Southeast Asian mountain ranges include elevational parapatry and ecological segregation, particularly among passerine bird species. We estimate timings of lineage splits among close relatives from the north Palaearctic, the Sino-Himalayan mountain forests and from adjacent Southeast Asia. We also compare phylogeographic affinities and timing of radiation among members of avian communities from different elevational belts. Location East Asia. Methods We reconstructed molecular phylogenies based on a mitochondrial marker (cytochrome b) and multilocus data sets for seven passerine groups: Aegithalidae, Certhiidae (Certhia),…
El proceso de transmisión de la política monetaria a la estructura temporal de los tipos de interés en España
2011
This paper analyses the adjustment grade and speed of interest rates term structure in Spain to changes in official interest rateo For this purpose, we specify and estimate an error-correction model, which considers the anticipation of future policy monetary and this allows obtaining an efficient estimator ofthe long-run relation. Moreover, we consider the possibility of asymmetry in the adjustment process to the equilibrium. The results indicate that interest rates anticipate monetary policy actions. Furthermore, monetary policy is transmitted quickly and completely to the short-term interest rates, while transmission is not complete in long-term interest rates but his speed has increased …
