Over geographical scales, biological and genetic continuity in the Southern Pacific coast is determined by historical geological-climate events (e.g., LGM), as well as by present oceanographic processes (Humboldt Current, ENSO and others) that can affect both, local adaptation and dispersal.
In short, the staggering biological diversity that makes the world worth inhabiting could owe as much to conflict between sperm head and egg sheath as it does to other presumed sources of species divergence, like geological and climate change, or the race between predator and prey.
The selected prefectures present sufficiently diverse geological and climate conditions [23].
The RFRK model was developed to predict spatial variability of SOM on the basis of terrain attributes, geological units, climate factors, and vegetation index.
This research is funded and led by the U.S. Geological Survey, Climate and Land Use Change Mission Area as part of LandCarbon.
The effect of salinity, which is modified by geological and climate changes, on the strength development in cement admixed saline clay is investigated in this paper.
Within Sakha-Yakutia's boreal forests, animal husbandry takes place in thermokarst depressions containing grassland areas (alaas) that formed in the early Holocene in a complex interplay of local geological conditions, climate changes, and permafrost dynamics.
"We're going to get this huge amount of [genetic] data that, if we filter it correctly, can give us a lot of environmental history, geological history, climate history," says one of the team's leaders, Paul Baker, a geologist at Yachay Tech and at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina.
We chose three scopes: an area that lies in a young orogenic belt like Japan Californiaan, arearea totally different from Japan in geological and climate settings (Australia), and glacier regions that are rare in Japan but very important for landform formation in high-latitude areas.
On the basis of the status quo of Jinyang Grand Buddha in Taiyuan, some factors such as topography, geological structures, climate, hydrology, and engineering geology that influence the stability of the Buddha slope are considered, and several working situations of the slope that possibly suffered are presented in this article.
