Innovative Fluorescent Polymers in Niosomal Carriers: A Novel Approach to Enhancing Cancer Therapy and Imaging.

Cancer is anticipated to become the pioneer reason of disease-related deaths worldwide in the next two decades, underscoring the urgent need for personalized and adaptive treatment strategies. These strategies are crucial due to the high variability in drug efficacy and the tendency of cancer cells to develop resistance. This study investigates the potential of theranostic nanotechnology using three innovative fluorescent polymers (FP-1, FP-2, and FP-3) encapsulated in niosomal carriers, combining therapy (chemotherapy and radiotherapy) with fluorescence imaging. These cargoes are assessed for their cytotoxic effects across three cancer cell lines (A549, MCF-7, and HOb), with further analysis to determine their capacity to augment the effects of radiotherapy using a Linear Accelerator (LINAC) at specific doses. Fluorescence microscopy is utilized to verify their uptake and localization in cancerous versus healthy cell lines. The results confirmed that these niosomal cargoes not only improved the antiproliferative effects of radiotherapy but also demonstrate the practical application of fluorescent polymers in in vitro imaging. This dual function underscores the importance of dose optimization to maximize therapeutic benefits while minimizing adverse effects, thereby enhancing the overall efficacy of cancer treatments.

Assessing agricultural vulnerability to climate change through dynamic indexing approach.

The present study aims to assess agricultural vulnerability in the context of climate change, focusing on the diverse districts of Odisha. Acknowledging that vulnerability is influenced by exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity, our research incorporates the growth rate and instability of vital performance indicators to evaluate the relative vulnerability of each district. A key strength of this approach is the use of normalized indicators, weighted in accordance with the proportional acreage of major crops in each district relative to the state, culminating in a comprehensive vulnerability index through the aggregation of these weighted components. Our findings reveal significant variability in the vulnerability profiles across districts, thereby necessitating state-level intervention through tailored "Location Performance Vulnerability" based adaptation strategies. These strategies, including early weather warning systems, development of new and early maturing crop varieties, and adjustment of crop planting dates, are crucial for mitigating the adverse effects of climate change on agriculture. The study's methodology and findings offer significant contributions to the field, providing policymakers and stakeholders with a district-specific framework for climate change adaptation. This approach is especially relevant for the international academic and policy-making communities, as it highlights the importance of localized adaptation strategies in the broader context of global climate change resilience.

Leaf trait networks shift toward high modularity during the succession of a subtropical forest, in southwest China

During the process of forest succession, coexisting plant species fulfill diverse functions by modifying the interrelationships among functional traits. Examining the interrelationships of functional traits across multiple dimensions would enable a comprehensive understanding of the plants’ adaptive strategies during forest succession. Plant trait networks (PTNs) comprehensively capture and visualize these intricate relationships among functional traits. Nonetheless, the changes in PTNs during forest secondary succession remain unclear. In this study, we measured 24 functional traits related to leaf resource acquisition, photosynthesis, hydraulics, and physical defense across tree species at three successional stages: young forest (YF), intermediate forest (IF), and old-growth forest (OF) in the Ailao Mountains, Southwest China. We established leaf trait networks (LTNs) to investigate the interrelationships among functional traits during forest succession. Our results revealed a decrease in the Edge Density decreased and an increase in the Modularity as succession advanced. In the YF stage, leaf nitrogen, photosynthetic rate, and force to punch were the hub traits; whereas, canopy exposure and leaf dry mass were highly connected traits in the IF and OF stages, respectively. The connectivity of highly connected traits was related to the plant’s life-history strategies and environmental adaptations at different successional stages. In terms of the importance of the four trait dimensions, resource acquisition and photosynthetic traits consistently demonstrated strong connectivity within LTNs throughout the succession. We concluded that co-occurring tree species adapted to the changing environmental conditions by adjusting trait modules through alternative strategies during secondary succession. Specifically, resource acquisition and trait coordination were more advantageous in the YF stage, while higher modularity offered greater opportunities for niche differentiation in the OF stage. This study provides new insights into exploring the mechanisms of forest succession through the analysis of trait correlation networks.

Energy retrofit and climate adaptive design of dwellings in the hot arid climate: Trends and future challenges

As long as buildings face various climate change impacts in recent decades, such as increased heat, particularly in the residential sector. Therefore, energy retrofit, and climate-adaptive designs may contribute significantly to climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies. At the same time, these strategies do not only improve the sustainability of dwellings/houses/residences but also contribute to broader goals of increasing energy efficiency, reducing environmental impact, offering economic benefits, and enhancing the community's resilience in the challenges they face impact from the effects of climate change. This study aims to examine and present the development of energy retrofitting, energy efficiency and climate-adaptive design for dwellings/ residential buildings in hot weather publications through bibliometric research. The research has been examined within the Web of Science™ Core Collection (W.O.S.) online database spanning from 2012 to November 2023 by using the "Title/Abstract/Keywords" category, and a comprehensive data visualisation has been conducted utilising the VOSviewer and CiteSpace programmes. The findings indicate the research trends in the literature and future challenges, and the results from these findings demonstrate the need for sustainable and energy-efficient buildings to preserve the environment and climate. These sustainable developments focus on improvements in energy retrofitting technologies, energy efficiency and saving targets, indoor thermal comfort, optimising passive design and minimising energy demand. This study will probably be a source to provide valuable insights for researchers, practitioners, experts, and policymakers to understand the implications of energy retrofitting and climate-adaptive design in hot arid climates. As well as it would offer theoretical and practical initiatives to be applied in this field.

Unveiling vertical migration patterns of the mesopelagic fish Ceratoscopelus warmingii in cold seep ecosystems: A trophic niche perspective

Ceratoscopelus warmingii, a common mesopelagic fish in cold seep ecosystems, plays a crucial role in transferring energy and materials between different water layers, thereby influencing deep-sea carbon cycling and storage. In August 2023, we collected samples from four depths (75 m, 400 m, 500 m, and 600 m) in cold seep waters to analyze the trophic niche characteristics of C. warmingii using stable isotope techniques. The results indicated significant differences in δ13C and δ15N values among the water layers, with mean δ13C and δ15N values of −19.85 ‰±0.33 ‰ and 8.41 ‰±0.62 ‰, respectively. Indicators of trophic structure showed distinct vertical differentiation, with the width of the trophic niche decreasing as depth increased. At 75 m and 400 m, the consistency of CR and NR indicators and high trophic niche overlap indicated similar food sources, confirming vertical migration behavior. In contrast, at 500 m, the MNND and SDNND values suggested a more stable trophic structure, while at 600 m, changes in feeding sources pointed to a distinct population. The Standard Ellipse Area of Overlap (SEAc) was highest between 75 m and 400 m, while the divergence of trophic ecological niches at 600 m, with different food sources, suggests that cold seep ecosystems at this depth provide a relatively stable trophic structure for C. warmingii and support the formation of an independent population. In cold seep ecosystems, C. warmingii employs adaptive trophic strategies to optimize survival under varying habitat conditions at different depths. This vertical trophic differentiation reduces intraspecific competition and enhances population stability in deep-sea habitats. This study enhances our understanding of the trophic niche and vertical migration of C. warmingii in cold seep ecosystems, significantly contributing to our knowledge of biodiversity, energy flow, and material cycling in these unique environments.

A meta-analysis of coping strategies and psychological distress in rheumatoid arthritis.

Theory and research indicate that coping plays a central role in the experience of psychological distress in people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study meta-analysed the associations of adaptive and maladaptive coping strategies with psychological distress in people with RA to quantify and better understand the proposed differential relationships, as well as the factors that might influence these links. Searches of four databases identified eligible studies according to a pre-registered protocol. Two random effects meta-analyses examined the direction and magnitude of the links between adaptive coping (problem-focused and emotional approach coping) and maladaptive coping (emotional avoidance and pre-occupation coping) and psychological distress (stress, anxiety, and depression). Study quality was evaluated using a bespoke tool. Moderator analyses for sample characteristics and distress type were conducted. Searches identified 16 eligible studies with 46 effects. Meta-analysis of maladaptive coping and distress yielded a significant, medium sized association, k = 12, r = .347, 95% CIs [.23, .46]. Moderator analyses were significant only for type of distress, with effects for depression being larger than that for combined distress. Effects did not vary as a function of age, participant sex, or disease duration. Meta-analysis for adaptive coping was not significant, k = 10, r = -.155, 95% CIs [-.31, .01]. Findings from this first meta-analysis of coping and distress in RA indicate that maladaptive but not adaptive coping is associated with greater distress. Further research is needed to grow the evidence base to verify the current findings especially with respect to adaptive coping.

WILLINGNESS TO ADOPT INDEX BASED CATTLE INSURANCE IN THE FACE OF CLIMATE CHANGE: EVIDENCE FROM SMALLHOLDER CATTLE FARMERS IN THE POLOKWANE LOCAL MUNICIPALITY, SOUTH AFRICA

This paper analysed the determinants of smallholder cattle farmers’ willingness to adopt Index-Based Cattle Insurance (IBCI) being climate change adaptive strategy in the Polokwane Municipality of South Africa. A multi-stage purposive sampling procedure was employed to collect primary data using structured questionnaires from 110 smallholder cattle farmers. The results revealed that about 89% of the sampled farmers were willing to adopt IBCI, while about 11% weren’t willing to adopt IBCI. The Probit regression model results revealed that marital status, farming experience, access to extension services, off-farm income and land ownership had a positive and significant influence on the willingness to adopt IBCI. However, educational level, household size, experience of cattle loss and farm size significantly influenced willingness to adopt IBCI negatively. Therefore, this study recommends workshops for raising IBCI awareness, government subsidy on insurance premiums and finally, improved market access and extension services for smallholder cattle farmers for sustainable livelihoods.

Comparative assessment of dry- and humid-heat extremes in a warming climate: Frequency, intensity, and seasonal timing

Dryand humid-heat extremes are two types of heat extremes, each exhibiting unique climatological characteristics and impacts on different sectors of society. Using historical simulations and projections produced under two Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5) by models from the sixth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6), we show a comparative assessment of the future changes in dry- and humid-heat extremes over global land. Relative to 1995–2014, projections for the mid-term future (2041–2060) and long-term future (2081–2100) periods suggest that most global regions will experience an increase in frequency and intensity of both dry- and humid-heat extremes, especially the tropical regions. In these future periods, the peak occurrences of dry- and humid-heat extremes in mid- to high-latitude regions often occur within the same month. However, there will be a one- to two-month gap between the peak occurrences of dry- and humid- heat extremes in tropical regions, primarily due to monsoonal circulations that introduce variability by causing dry-heat extremes before the onset of monsoons and humid-heat extremes as the monsoons commence. This suggests the need for sector-specific adaptation strategies during different periods of the year for tropical regions. Under both future scenarios, whether considering individual exposure or land area, the average level of exposure to extreme humid-heat days is projected to increase more significantly compared to dry-heat days. The above results highlight the risks associated with the intensification of humid heat in future climate scenarios and warrant the development of effective strategies to mitigate the adverse effects.

Climate risk and green total factor productivity in agriculture: The moderating role of climate policy uncertainty.

In light of the escalating global warming and the escalating frequency of extreme weather events, the agricultural sector, being a fundamental and pivotal industry worldwide, is encountering substantial challenges due to climate change. Using Chinese provincial panel data for 2000-2021, this paper utilizes a two-way fixed-effect model to investigate the impact of Climate Risk (CR) on green total factor productivity in agriculture (AGTFP), with China's climate policy uncertainty (CPU) being introduced as a moderating variable within the research framework to scrutinize its influence in this context. The findings reveal a noteworthy adverse effect of CR on AGTFP, further exacerbated by CPU. Heterogeneity analysis results show that there is a clear regional variation in the effect of CR on AGTFP across different Chinese regions, with CR significantly inhibiting AGTFP development in the northern regions and provinces in major grain producing regions. Consequently, there is a pressing necessity to bolster the establishment of climate change monitoring infrastructures, devise tailored climate adaptation strategies at a regional level, and enhance the clarity and predictability of climate policies to fortify the resilience and sustainability of agricultural production systems.

AdaGuiDE: An adaptive and guided differential evolution for continuous optimization problems

AbstractDifferential evolution (DE) has been proven as a simple yet powerful meta-heuristic algorithm on tackling continuous optimization problems. Nevertheless most existing DE methods still suffer from certain drawbacks including the use of ineffective mechanisms to adjust mutation strategies and their control parameters that may possibly mislead the search directions, and also the lack of intelligent guidance and reset mechanisms to escape from local optima. Therefore, to enhance the adaptability of DE-based search frameworks and the robustness on optimizing complex problems full of local optima, an adaptive and guided differential evolution (AdaGuiDE) algorithm is proposed. Essentially, the adaptability of the AdaGuiDE search framework is enhanced by three schemes to iteratively refine the search behaviour at two different levels. At the macroscopic level, the AdaGuiDE search framework revises the existing adaptive mechanism for selecting appropriate DE search strategies by counting the actual contributions in terms of solution quality. In addition, the adaption strategy is extended to the microscopic level where a penalty-based guided DE search is employed to guide the search escaping from local optima through temporarily penalizing the local optima and their neighborhood. Furthermore, a systematic boundary revision scheme is introduced to dynamically adjust the search boundary for locating any potential regions of interest during the search. For a rigorous evaluation of the proposed search framework, the AdaGuiDE algorithm is compared against other well-known meta-heuristic approaches on three sets of benchmark functions involving different dimensions in which the AdaGuiDE algorithm attained remarkable results especially on the high-dimensional and complex optimization problems. More importantly, the proposed AdaGuiDE framework shed lights on many possible directions to further enhance the adaptability of the underlying DE-based search strategies in tackling many challenging real-world applications.

Thriving in a salty future: morpho-anatomical, physiological, and molecular adaptations to salt stress in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and other crops.

With soil salinity levels rising at an alarming rate, accelerated by climate change and human interventions, there is a growing need for crop varieties that can grow on saline soils. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is a cool-season perennial leguminous crop, commonly grown as forage, biofuel feedstock, and soil conditioner. It demonstrates significant potential for agricultural circularity and sustainability, for example by fixing nitrogen, sequestering carbon, and improving soil structures. Although alfalfa is traditionally regarded as moderately salt-tolerant species, modern alfalfa varieties display specific salt-tolerance mechanisms, which could be used to pave alfalfa's role as a leading crop able to grow on saline soils. Alfalfa's salt tolerance underlies a large variety of cascading biochemical and physiological mechanisms. These are partly enabled by alfalfa's complex genome structure and out-crossing nature, which on the other hand entail impediments for molecular and genetic studies. This review first summarizes the general effects of salinity on plants and the broad-ranging mechanisms for dealing with salt-induced osmotic stress, ion toxicity, and secondary stress. Secondly, we address defensive and adaptive strategies that have been described for alfalfa, such as the plasticity of alfalfa's root system, hormonal crosstalk for maintaining ion homeostasis, spatiotemporal specialized metabolite profiles, and the protection of alfalfa-rhizobia associations. Finally, bottlenecks for research of the physiological and molecular salt-stress responses as well as biotechnology-driven improvements of salt tolerance are identified and discussed. Understanding morpho-anatomical, physiological, and molecular responses to salinity is essential for the improvement of alfalfa and other crops in saline land reclamation. This review identifies potential breeding targets for enhancing alfalfa performance stability and general crop robustness for rising salt levels as well as to promote alfalfa applications in saline land management.

INSULARITY, ENVIRONMENTAL VULNERABILITIES AND ADAPTATION STRATEGIES IN THE BLISS KASSA ISLANDS IN CASAMANCE (SENEGAL)

The relationship between the environment and societies is a complex one in terms of the way in which human communities interact with the environment. This relationship is characteristic of the different uses made of the areas in which they live. A segmented approach is therefore needed to understand how these areas are changing, hence the choice in this research to focus on small island areas in the Ziguinchor region of southern Senegal. The article looks at three main challenges identified in this area, including waste production and management, sea encroachment and salinisation. A qualitative approach was adopted in order to gather peoples perceptions and experiences of spatial change over time in relation to natural and anthropogenic dynamics, the consequences of these changes and related adaptation strategies. The results of the semi-structured interviews and focus groups show: firstly, a change in lifestyles and an excessive accumulation of plastic waste that popular recycling practices are unable to contain secondly, a loss of freshwater resources with the accelerated salinisation of groundwater and surface water thirdly, a decline in socio-economic living spaces with the advance of the sea, which also contributes to salinisation. The findings show that the people of Bliss Kassa are increasingly vulnerable, while the public systems in place to deal with these issues remain embryonic and largely outstripped by the pace of change.

The Past and Future of the Fisheries and Marine Ecosystem Model Intercomparison Project

AbstractClimate change is increasingly affecting the world's ocean ecosystems, necessitating urgent guidance on adaptation strategies to limit or prevent catastrophic impacts. The Fisheries and Marine Ecosystem Model Intercomparison Project (FishMIP) is a network and framework that provides standardised ensemble projections of the impacts of climate change and fisheries on ocean life and the benefits that it provides to people. Since its official launch in 2013 as a small, self‐organized project within the larger Inter‐Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project, the FishMIP community has grown substantially and contributed to key international policy processes, such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Assessment Report, and the Intergovernmental Science‐Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services Global Biodiversity Assessment. While not without challenges, particularly around comparing heterogeneous ecosystem models, integrating fisheries scenarios, and standardising regional‐scale ecosystem models, FishMIP outputs are now being used across a variety of applications (e.g., climate change targets, fisheries management, marine conservation, Sustainable Development Goals). Over the next decade, FishMIP will focus on improving ecosystem model ensembles to provide more robust and policy‐relevant projections for different regions of the world under multiple climate and societal change scenarios, and continue to be open to a broad spectrum of marine ecosystem models and modelers. FishMIP also intends to enhance leadership diversity and capacity‐building to improve representation of early‐ and mid‐career researchers from under‐represented countries and ocean regions. As we look ahead, FishMIP aims to continue enhancing our understanding of how marine life and its contributions to people may change over the coming century at both global and regional scales.

MULTIVARIATE PROBIT MODELING OF CLIMATE-SMART ADAPTATION CHOICES AMONG FARMERS IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA: GHANAIAN STUDY OF COCOA FARMERS

Climate change and variability pose significant challenges to cocoa production in many sub-Saharan African countries, and Ghana is no exception. Therefore, knowledge of how farmers react to climate change and its variability effects is crucial in developing policies and programs to guide the design and implementation of effective climate-smart adaptation strategies at the farm level in Africa. This study aims to examine climate-smart adaptation choices cocoa farmers make as coping strategies for climate change and variability in Ghana using a multivariate probit modeling approach. Following a multistage sampling procedure, primary data was collected from 720 cocoa farmers across the major cocoa-growing regions in Ghana. The study found major adaptation choices for cocoa farmers to include improved and resistant varieties, optimal fertilizer application, optimal pesticide application, adjusting planting/harvesting dates, shade tree management, crop diversification, non-crop diversification, and off-farm economic diversification. We further observed that farmers’ adaptation choices were significantly influenced by climate change and adaptation-related variables such as rainfall variability index, temperature variability index, climate change impact perception index, and CSA awareness as well as agroclimatic zone effects. Concerning the influence of farmer and farm-specific variables, the study identifies that sex, age, education, farm size, quality of extension services delivery, access to credit, and membership in farmer groups were significant predictors of farmers’ CSA decision choices. This study offers beneficial insights for policymakers and stakeholders on how to promote climate-smart adaptation methods among cocoa farmers in Ghana.

Understanding How Indigenous Knowledge Contributes to Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience: A Systematic Literature Review.

Climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing the world today threatening societies and the future of the planet. The impacts of climate change are more severe in poor and marginalised populations like Indigenous communities where people rely heavily on their Indigenous Knowledge (IK) to adapt to the changing environment. Climate change adaptation and resilience are critical for the survival of Indigenous communities under the threat of climate change. This systematic literature review seeks to understand how IK contributes to climate change adaptation and resilience. A total of 71 papers from Scopus were analysed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) method. It investigated three research questions: (i) How is IK understood in climate change studies? (ii) What kind of IK is used to address climate change and enhance adaptation and resilience? and finally, (iii) What could be done to maximise the use of IK towards enhancing climate adaptation and resilience? The study found that Indigenous people use IK to predict extreme climatic conditions, prepare for it, and live through it making use of Indigenous adaptation strategies in multiple manifestations. The solutions to maximise the benefits of IK promote two dominant themes requiring more research on IK and climate change with diverse focus areas and the need to bridge it with scientific knowledge. This review provides a starting point for such research that will draw upon IK to enhance climate adaptation and resilience towards meaningful sustainable development.

Ecotourism in the Age of Climate Change: A Comprehensive Analysis of Stakeholder Perspectives and Industry Adaptation

The present study tends to identify the dynamics of ecotourism in global climate change, focusing on stakeholders' perceptions and industry adaptation strategies. Climate change is currently challenging the tourism sector, especially at the level of ecotourism; hence, it becomes imperative to note how different stakeholders perceive these impacts and how the industry responds to them. This research looks into the potential implications of climate change in three areas: operation and profitability of tourist spots, changes in tourist demand, and socio-economic implications. In this regard, the researchers utilized the survey results on stakeholders: tourists, business operators, and local communities. For example, according to the results, all respondents perceived climate change's impact to be moderate. Specifically, moderate effects at operational and financial levels on tourist spots, shifting tourist demand, and broader socio-economic conditions are recognized. The results underline the need for targeted adaptation strategies to enhance business resilience to the changing climatic conditions, adapting to changing tourist preferences, and answering socio-economic challenges. The paper highlights the need for proactive steps toward the sustainability of ecotourism in the face of continuing change. Hence, it delivers actionable insight into what stakeholders would do to enable such navigation of the complexities of climate change.
