With a path analysis, we explored relationships between concepts across all age groups. Although all age groups visited green areas similarly, identification skills, nature-relatedness and intentions declined progressively from older to younger groups. Nature-relatedness predicted intentions and identification skills predicted nature-relatedness across all groups.

Results indicate that temperature affected subjective loudness and acoustic comfort, rating poorly in hotter environment. Illumination affected acoustic acceptability and was lower in brighter luminous environment. Additionally, temperature affected luminous sensation and visual comfort, with significantly poorer results in hotter environment. The sound pressure level affected luminous sensation, visual comfort, and luminous acceptability, and it was rated better in a moderately quiet sound environment. Overall comfort was affected by thermal, acoustic, and luminous environments, while the acoustic environment having the greatest effect. The overall comfort level was the highest at 22 °C, 35 dB, and 100 lx. Environmental factors also affected emotional perception, mainly affecting emotional valence.

Concurrently, six distinct ML models were evaluated and optimized using Bayesian optimization (BO) technique, considering performance indicators like weighted accuracy, F1-Score, precision, and recall. Notable trends emerged, with the CatBoost Classifier demonstrating superior performance in UTCI prediction, the Random Forest classifier excelling in PET estimation, and the XGBoost Classifier achieving optimal PMV prediction. Furthermore, the study delved into the influence of morphological features on OTC, prioritizing factors using SHAP values. Results consistently identified 90-degree orientation, street width, and 180-degree orientation as pivotal factors influencing OTC, with varying degrees of sensitivity across different classifications of thermal stress. Analysis of binary SHAP values unveiled intricate relationships between urban features and OTC indices, emphasizing the critical influence of street orientation on regulating outdoor thermal environments for UTCI and PET scenarios. Surprisingly, street width emerged as the foremost influential factor within the PMV index, challenging established trends and highlighting the complexity of thermal comfort modeling. Additionally, current research delineates the multifaceted impact of street width on microclimate dynamics, enriching our understanding of urban thermal dynamics and emphasizing its role in mitigating thermal stress within urban environments.","PeriodicalId":588,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biometeorology","volume":" ","pages":"1645-1662"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12179017/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143955431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is still uncertain how the human body may have utilized external electromagnetic fields to regulate its processes. Additionally, we will discuss the mechanisms related to environmental factors that may have influenced evolutionary pathways. This review paper also examines the impact of oscillations in natural environmental factors on human chrono-periodic systems. The human body is influenced by various fluctuations in both external and internal factors, some of which can potentially disrupt homeostasis. Animals and humans have the ability to anticipate external signal. The chrono-periodic system of the human body is responsible for this \"premonition\". It would be incorrect to assume that specific reactions to each stimulus were fully developed and fixed during evolution. Except for genetic defects, it is unlikely that the human body evolved to have fixed pathological reactions, as this would contradict the principles of natural selection. Therefore, all typical responses of the human body to stimuli should be considered physiological, meaning they are adaptive.","PeriodicalId":588,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biometeorology","volume":" ","pages":"1507-1516"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143955106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In specific regions, beekeeping is undergoing continuous adaptation to enhance productivity and align with local environmental characteristics. An alternative technique to the traditional Langstroth hive (SH) is the stacked nucs method (NH), which involves managing colonies in a smaller space than the standard 10-frame hive. In the presence of immature stages, internal temperature must be adequately controlled by workers hence the description of thermal dynamics would facilitate understanding the development of colonies with different beekeeping methodologies. In an apiary located in Mendoza (32° 41' 05.3\" S, 68° 39' 22.4\" W) the internal temperature of the brood area and lateral wall in the hives were monitored during the season of honey production. We describe the frequency of exposition to non-optimal temperature range for brood and flight activity of pollen collection. The mean of internal temperature in SH was 33.2 °C and 34.1 °C in NH. The thermal range was between 2.4 and 3.1 °C in the brood area, being significantly elevated in the colony formation period. The lateral temperature values showed the exposure to thermal extremes indicating overheating in hives with reduced space. Pollen foraging was similar with a decrease in activity as noon approached in both types of hives. The temperature above or below the optimal range was discussed according to the hourly pattern, heat waves, and seasonal schedule by the beekeeper's management in a semi-arid region.","PeriodicalId":588,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biometeorology","volume":" ","pages":"1769-1779"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143951755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the basins of the upper reaches of neighboring rivers, the Indigirka and Kolyma, are considered as a model. In the first basin steppe communities on the southern slopes of the valleys occupy an important place in the landscape, on a background of permafrost larch and Siberian dwarf pine communities. In the upper Kolyma River and further north, east and south, the area of steppe communities and diversity of steppe plants and invertebrates decreases sharply. A comparison of 28 characteristics of temperature regime, humidity and climate continentality indices revealed that the differences between the aforementioned regions are reliable and substantial only in winter. It cannot be excluded that the extensive distribution of steppe associations in the headwaters of the Indigirka is influenced by factors other than climate, such as the distinctive biogeochemical characteristics of the territory.

We collected 40 Pinus sylvestris cores from Bakuriani and extracted their blue-intensity (BI) signals, which capture latewood density closely linked to high-season temperature. After chemical treatment and high-resolution scanning, we employed correlation analyses to identify the seasonal temperature signal in BI. Then, we used a linear regression model-validated by local instrumental records from 1950-2020-to reconstruct April-September temperatures back to 1780 CE. Additional superposed epoch analysis tested the reconstruction's responsiveness to significant volcanic eruptions and solar variability. Our reconstruction strongly correlates with observed data (r = 0.72, p < 0.001), revealing significant warming trends alongside cooling events linked to volcanic aerosols and low solar activity in recent decades. Spatial analyses confirm that the BI-derived temperature variations align well with broader regional climate patterns. Furthermore, CMIP6-based projections under high-emission scenarios suggest possible warming of up to 8.75°C by 2100, highlighting the severity of future climate risks in the region. By integrating BI data, linear regression techniques, and superposed epoch analysis, this research demonstrates the effectiveness of tree-ring proxies in capturing both anthropogenic and natural drivers of climate variability. The resulting 240-year temperature record provides valuable insights into historical climate dynamics, refines model predictions, and underscores the importance of localised, high-resolution data for adaptation planning in the Greater Caucasus region.","PeriodicalId":588,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biometeorology","volume":" ","pages":"1753-1768"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143958689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Field measurements were conducted in the most common street morphologies and compared with data obtained from meteorological stations (MS). Subsequently, the influence of tree presence were evaluated for the measured streets, and PET assessments were conducted by incorporating fisheye photographs of the most common tree species in the region into the SVF calculations. The results indicate that EW-oriented streets, particularly the Left Lateral, experience beyond extreme heat stress due to extended sun exposure. PET results from MS were inconsistent with local conditions. The analysis of Platanus orientalis, Populus canadensis, and Robinia pseudoacacia on PET in different street orientations showed reductions of 5-6 °C, particularly for the first two species during morning and midday. This equates to a PET reduction from Beyond extreme heat stress (I) to Extreme heat stress, for heat stress beyond 41 °C. Although this reduction is significant, tree shade had limited impact under such extreme heat. The study found that trees on the left side were more effective when placed on one side, while the right side provided stronger cooling when trees were on both sides in both E-W and N-S streets. Additionally, during the El Niño period, the influence of street morphology on thermal comfort in 'Csa' climates begins to reflect the conditions of 'BWh' climates, with higher levels of heat stress.
