East Asians are sometimes assumed to have evolved in a cold environment because of their narrow nostrils, which conserve heat, and the extra eyelid fat that insulates the eye.
If such communities evolved in the cold corners of Earth, "it seems reasonable to search for evidence of similar biological processes on other icy bodies in our solar system," White said.
"It makes intuitive sense that species that evolved in this colder time would cope better with the open conditions created by timber harvesting," says co-author Douglas Sheil, an ecologist at the Center for International Forestry Research in Bogor, Indonesia.
As the strategic situation has evolved in the post Cold War era, the organisation, structure, training and role of the Army Reserve has undergone considerable changes, and members of the Army Reserve are increasingly being used on overseas deployments, not only within Regular Army units, but also in units drawn almost entirely from Reserve units.
They evolved in the persistently cold and oxygen-rich Antarctic waters, acquiring unique adaptations at the morphological, physiological, and biochemical level.
If the Neanderthals evolved in comparatively frigid Europe, it is possible that they were "cold-adapted," as their rather stocky frames might suggest.
Granted, that seems pretty obvious for tundras or boreal forests — they're rapidly warming, and life in these places has evolved in a much colder regime than the one we're now entering.
You have a great beach body, freeze easily in the cold (we evolved in Africa after all), enjoy perfect health and have started aging slower.
Lowland tundra animals appear to have evolved in central Eurasia when tundra replaced the cold temperate steppe.
