DEMOGRAPHIC AND SOCIAL TRENDS IN THE RUSSIAN ARCTIC by Pavel M. Dashkevich, Natalia A. Flud, Irina I. Eliseeva

“…Key measures to stabilize and grow the population in the Arctic include comprehensive support for families with children, poverty reduction initiatives, retention of local youth and attraction of young professionals from other regions, economic diversification, and the establishment of competitive services to meet residents’ needs in healthcare, general and vocational education, infrastructure, and other essential aspects of quality of life in northern latitudes.…”

Genomic and transcriptomic insights into vitamin A-induced thermogenesis and gene reuse as a cold adaptation strategy in wild boars by Mingpeng Zhang, Aleksei Traspov, Jiawen Yang, Min Zheng, Veronika R. Kharzinova, Huashui Ai, Natalia A. Zinovieva, Lusheng Huang

“…Abstract Wild boars inhabit diverse climates, including frigid regions like Siberia, but their migration history and cold adaptation mechanisms into high latitudes remain poorly understood. We constructed the most comprehensive wild boar whole-genome variant dataset to date, comprising 124 samples from tropical to frigid zones, among which 47 Russian, 8 South Chinese and 3 Vietnamese wild boars were newly supplemented. …”

Synergy Effects of the Indian Summer Monsoon and the Tibetan Plateau Heating on Summer Rainfall over North China by Siwen Zhao, Jie Zhang, Zhihong Lv

“…Meanwhile, there is another Rossby wave originating in North Africa and moving eastward to the Pacific Ocean, which interferes with circulation at mid- to high-latitudes, i.e., it strengthens the cyclone over the Baikal region and stretches the western Pacific subtropical high (WPSH) northward to northeastern Asia, and results in abundant water vapor transported to NC. …”

Bias in Discontinuous Elevational Transects for Tracking Species Range Shifts by Shixuan Li, Jiannan Yao, Yang Lin, Siyu Wu, Zhongjie Yang, Chao Jin, Yuhan Zhang, Zhen Wang, Jinliang Liu, Guochun Shen, Mingjian Yu

“…Climate change is compelling species to seek refuge at higher elevations and latitudes. While researchers commonly study these migrations using discontinuous elevational transects, this methodology may introduce significant biases into our understanding of species movement. …”

Long term study on blood glucose levels in wintering great tits Parus major in sites differing in artificial food availability by Adam Kaliński, Michał Glądalski, Marcin Markowski, Joanna Skwarska, Jarosław Wawrzyniak, Jerzy Bańbura, Piotr Zieliński

“…Such an indicator may be especially useful during energetically demanding periods, such as winter at northern latitudes. Therefore, the main objective of this paper was to examine the variation in blood glucose in wintering the great tits (Parus major) in nine consecutive winters at two sites that differed with respect to the amount of human-provided food. …”

Studying the Fixing Rate of GPS PPP Ambiguity Resolution Under Different Geomagnetic Storm Intensities by Xiaomin Luo, Zhuang Chen, Shengfeng Gu, Neng Yue, Tao Yue

“…Under quiet and low geomagnetic conditions (Dstmin > −50 nT), the PPP‐ARP of global GNSS stations can achieve more than 96%, while these during strong storms (Dstmin ≤ −100 nT) are generally lower than 90.0%, especially for the PPP‐ARP of some stations located at low latitudes which are lower than 40.0%. The mechanism of PPP‐ARP decrease under geomagnetic storms is mainly due to the cycle slips and even loss of lock of GNSS signals caused by the storms induced ionospheric disturbances and scintillations. …”

Detection, attribution and projection of changes in the extreme temperature range in the Northern Hemisphere by Xiao-Fan Feng, Cheng Qian

“…We found that anthropogenic forcing could be detected and separated from natural forcing, and greenhouse gas forcing could be detected and separated from anthropogenic aerosol forcing, in the spatiotemporal pattern of the NH and in the regional average of the high latitudes. It is estimated that anthropogenic forcing (greenhouse gas emissions) contributed to 129% (152%) of the significant decreasing trend in the NH-averaged ETR. …”

Comprehensive Methodology to Evaluate Parasitic Energy Consumption for Different Types of Dual-Axis Sun Tracking Systems by Ming-Hui Tan, Tze-Koon Wang, Chee-Woon Wong, Kok-Keong Chong, Boon-Han Lim, Tiong-Keat Yew, Woei-Chong Tan, An-Chow Lai

“…To address this issue, a comprehensive methodology has been developed to evaluate the yearly cumulative range of motion for dual-axis sun tracking systems in the cases of with and without fixed parking positions across the latitudes ranging from 45°N to 45°S. The parasitic energy consumptions have been investigated for three selected types of dual-axis sun tracking systems, i.e., the azimuth-elevation sun tracking system (AE-STS), polar dual-axis sun tracking system (PD-STS), and horizontal dual-axis sun tracking system (HD-STS). …”
