An advanced empirical model for quantifying the impact of heat and climate change on human physical work capacity
(2021)Occupational heat stress directly hampers physical work capacity (PWC), with large economic consequences for industries and regions vulnerable to global warming. Accurately quantifying PWC is essential for forecasting ... -
Brain diseases in changing climate
(2019)Climate change is one of the biggest and most urgent challenges for the 21st century. Rising average temperatures and ocean levels, altered precipitation patterns and increased occurrence of extreme weather events affect ... -
Climate change threatens the microbiological stability of non-refrigerated foods
(2022)Most studies on the impact of climate change on foods focus on the consequences to security and safety. In the present study we provide scientific evidence on an overlooked aspect of climate change related to the microbiological ... -
The HEAT-SHIELD project — Perspectives from an inter-sectoral approach to occupational heat stress
(2021)Objectives: To provide perspectives from the HEAT-SHIELD project (www.heat-shield.eu): a multi-national, inter-sectoral, and cross-disciplinary initiative, incorporating twenty European research institutions, as well as ... -
Sustainable solutions to mitigate occupational heat strain - An umbrella review of physiological effects and global health perspectives
(2020)Background: Climate change is set to exacerbate occupational heat strain, the combined effect of environmental and internal heat stress on the body, threatening human health and wellbeing. Therefore, identifying effective, ... -
Warming and Acidification Effects on Planktonic Heterotrophic Pico- and Nanoflagellates in a Mesocosm Experiment
(2016)We studied the response of the heterotrophic flagellate (HF) community to the combined impact of warming and ocean acidification in a mesocosm experiment with a plankton community from the western Baltic Sea. We performed ... -
Water resources vulnerability assessment in the Adriatic Sea region: the case of Corfu Island
(2017)Cross-border water resources management and protection is a complicated task to achieve, lacking a common methodological framework. Especially in the Adriatic region, water used for drinking water supply purposes pass from ...
