The plaque that is the cause of atherosclerosis consists of cholesterol, calcium, fat, and other substances, and it can harder over time. The changes in a person’s arteries disrupt the flow of blood around the body and increase the risk of c ...
Atherosclerosis happens when arteries become narrow and hard due to a buildup of plaque around the artery wall The plaque that is the cause of atherosclerosis consists of cholesterol, calcium, fat, and other substances, and it can harder ...

Forest biological diversity results from evolutionary processes over thousands and even millions of years which, in themselves, are driven by ecological forces such as climate, fire, competition and disturbance. Furthermore, the diversity of fores ...
The theory of island biogeography has been the central tenet of conservation biology for several decades, a tenet in which continental landscapes are viewed islands of suitable habitat patches embedded in a matrix (i.e., surrounded by a sea) of un ...
Biodiversity is simply the variety of life. This can mean anything from the microbes in a few grams of soil to all the organisms that inhabit the earth. In practice, to assess how much diversity we have and what it does, we need to be more specifi ...
Ecology is a branch of biology concerning interactions among organisms and their biophysical environment, which includes both biotic and abiotic components. Topics of interest include the biodiversity, distribution, biomass, and populations of org ...
When scientists explore each ecosystem, they find countless such interactions, all honed by millions of years of evolution. If undamaged, this produces a finely balanced, healthy system which contributes to a healthy sustainable planet.More formal ...
This notion of climate zones was picked up by medieval geographers and was in use during the 13–18th centuries. In the 13th century, Roger Bacon, considered to be the first English scientist, wrote (in Latin) that Ptolemy of Alexander (secon ...
According to Eratosthenes a century later, latitudinal zones around the earth were considered to be associated with a particular type of climate—torrid, temperate and frigid. In late antiquity (from the third to early seventh century AD), it ...
Antecedents of the concept of climate can be found in Greece in fifth century BC. To Hippocratic writers, seasonal change, climatic conditions and location all influenced the occurrence of disease. Franco and Williams (2000) say that ‘the Hi ...
Climatology is the science of climate, which in turn is the composite of all weather events. It should be noted at the outset that climate fluctuates on all time scales: monthly, yearly, decadally, centennially, and millennially. Thus, climate is ...
It features a northward shift of the WPSH resulting in an underestimation of rainfall along the monsoon rainfall band from southern China to Japan, and an overestimation of rainfall over the SCS and WNP. Moreover, the rainfall over north Ind ...
Corresponding to the strong westerly winds and the WPSH, there are four rainfall centers in GPCP: northern India, the BOB–Indochina peninsula, SCS, WNP, and the monsoon rainfall band which is called Meiyu in China, Baiu in Japan, or Changma ...
