Rotonda Mihail Sebastian (MLR, 1975) 30 de ani de la moarte by Lucian Chișu

“…The resulting image is undoubtedly truthful and it renders in its entirety the evolving ”scale of values“ of Romanian literature, including the literature of the last half a century, a period supposed to have been affected by the distortions operated by the political climate. The maintenance of the necessary balance is an undeniable fact, despite some interventions” of the last two decades, which aimed to be the seismograph of the intrusions of social command; in other words, of the communist propaganda in matters of literary art and its main themes. …”

Evidence of slow millennial cliff retreat rates using cosmogenic nuclides in coastal colluvium by R. Bossis, R. Bossis, V. Regard, S. Carretier, S. Choy

“…The coastal retreat rate of the Peruvian site currently subject to wave action is similar to the Mediterranean coast (0.5 mm yr<span class="inline-formula">⁻¹</span>), despite Peru's more arid climate. The other two Peruvian sites, which have not been subjected to wave action for tens of thousands of years, are eroding 20 times more slowly. …”

Large-scale spatio-temporal variation in vital rates and population dynamics of an alpine bird by Nater, Chloé R., Frassinelli, Francesco, Martin, James A., Nilsen, Erlend B.

“…Slower life history patterns (higher survival, lower recruitment) appeared to be more common at higher latitudes and altitudes, portending differential effects of climate change on ptarmigan across their range. While there was variation in the magnitude of the effect small rodent occupancy had on recruitment, the relationships were predominantly positive and thus consistent with the alternative prey hypothesis. …”

Mangrove biomass productivity and sediment carbon storage assessment at selected sites in Mauritius: the effect of tidal inundation, forest age and mineral availability by M D D Doodee, S D D V Rughooputh, S Jawaheer

“…Carbon dioxide is the most abundant anthropogenic greenhouse gas released in the environment and is considered as one of the main drivers of global warming and ensuing climate change. Mangals, recognised as key ‘blue carbon’ ecosystems, are amongst the world’s most carbon-dense ecosystems and can sequester a considerable amount of carbon through biological carbon sequestration in their biomass and soils. …”

Presenting the internal evaluation model on the performance of the banking industry based on the data theory method of the foundation by Zahra Ramzanpour Osmavandani, mehdi Rouholamini, Shahrbanoo Gholipour

“…The results indicated that a total of 5 components of job security, training, employee motivation and satisfaction, positive communication, development and reward were identified as internal marketing features in the banking industry, and 14 components were identified and extracted in the form of causal conditions (establishing constructive interaction between employees and managers, generous rewards, employee empowerment, management support), foundational conditions (organizational leadership and management, human resource management measures, organizational culture), interventions (political climate, organizational costs), strategies (promotion of customer-oriented culture, person-job fit), and outcome (human development, value creation, increased commitment). …”

Atmospheric Black Carbon Evaluation in Two Sites of San Luis Potosí City During the Years 2018–2020 by Valter Barrera, Cristian Guerrero, Guadalupe Galindo, Dara Salcedo, Andrés Ruiz, Carlos Contreras

“…Nevertheless, there is a lot to know about air pollutants in Mexico’s largest cities, like San Luis Potosi City, which is one of the 12 most crowded cities and is expected to grow in the next years; however, there is little information about air pollutant levels mainly particulate matter in their regulated size fractions (PM₁₀ or PM_2.5), and its main component of the Organic fraction: Black Carbon (BC), which is especially important because of its chemical properties and their effects on human health, air pollution, and climate change. This work presents a one-year BC monitoring in the northern part of the city (2018–2019) and another one-year BC monitoring in the southern area (2019–2020) during the health contingency situation due to the SARX-CoV-2 virus to obtain direct equivalent black carbon (eBC) concentrations and their main fractions related to fossil fuel and biomass burning using aethalometer AE-33, as well as other air pollutants concentrations measured at the same periods by the governmental local monitoring network (SEGAM). …”

Assessment of salicylic acid and potassium nitrate to mitigate frost stress in autumn-sown potato crop cv. Sutlej by Muhammad Wasim Haider, Syed Mohsin Abbas, Tanveer Hussain, Muhammad Tahir Akram, Umar Farooq, Mona S. Alwahibi, Mohamed S. Elshikh, Zaid Shakeel, Muhammad Nafees, Muhammad Rizwan, Rashid Iqbal

“…However, the major crop is the autumn crop which is planted in mid-October and contributes 80–85% of the total production. The abrupt climate change has affected the weather patterns all over the world, resulting in the reduction of the mean air temperature in autumn by almost 1.6 °C in Pakistan, which in turn, has adversely affected the crop performance and tuber yield. …”

Genome skimming provides evidence to accept two new genera (Apiaceae) separated from the Peucedanum s.l. by Bo-Ni Song, Chang-Kun Liu, Chang-Kun Liu, Jiao-Jiao Deng, Wei-Yan Tan, Song-Dong Zhou, Xing-Jin He

“…Furthermore, molecular dating analysis showed that the diversification of clades A and B occurred in the early Pleistocene and late Pliocene, respectively, which may have been driven by the complex geological and climate shifts of these periods. In summary, our study impelled a revision of Peucedanum s.l. members and improved the taxonomic system of the Apiaceae family.…”
