Temperature, Humidity, and Latitude Analysis to Estimate Potential Spread and Seasonality of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Mohammad M. Sajadi,Mohammad M. Sajadi,Parham Habibzadeh,Augustin Vintzileos,Shervin Shokouhi,Fernando Miralles-Wilhelm,Fernando Miralles-Wilhelm,Anthony Amoroso,Anthony Amoroso +8 more
TL;DR: In this cohort study of 50 cities with and without coronavirus disease 2019, areas with substantial community transmission of COVID-19 had distribution roughly along the 30° N to 50° N latitude corridor with consistently similar weather patterns, consisting of mean temperatures of 5 to 11 °C combined with low specific and absolute humidity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature, Humidity and Latitude Analysis to Predict Potential Spread and Seasonality for COVID-19
Mohammad M. Sajadi,Parham Habibzadeh,Augustin Vintzileos,Shervin Shokouhi,Fernando Miralles-Wilhelm,Fernando Miralles-Wilhelm,Anthony Amoroso +6 more
TL;DR: Using weather modeling, it may be possible to predict the regions most likely to be at higher risk of significant community spread of COVID-19 in the upcoming weeks, allowing for concentration of public health efforts on surveillance and containment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biophysical properties and functional significance of stem water storage tissues in Neotropical savanna trees.
Fabian Gustavo Scholz,Sandra Janet Bucci,Sandra Janet Bucci,Guillermo Goldstein,Guillermo Goldstein,Frederick C. Meinzer,Augusto C. Franco,Fernando Miralles-Wilhelm +7 more
TL;DR: Stem capacitance contributes to homeostasis in the diurnal and seasonal water balance of Cerrado trees, and overnight recharge of water storage compartments was incomplete in species with greater capacitance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrient availability constrains the hydraulic architecture and water relations of savannah trees.
Sandra Janet Bucci,Fabian Gustavo Scholz,Guillermo Goldstein,Guillermo Goldstein,Frederick C. Meinzer,Augusto C. Franco,Paula I. Campanello,Randol Villalobos-Vega,Mercedes M. C. Bustamante,Fernando Miralles-Wilhelm +9 more
TL;DR: Despite being adapted to chronic nutrient limitations, Cerrado woody species apparently have the capacity to exploit increases in nutrient availability by allocating resources to maximize carbon gain and enhance growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of nutrient limitations by long-term fertilization decreases nocturnal water loss in savanna trees.
Fabian Gustavo Scholz,Sandra Janet Bucci,Guillermo Goldstein,Frederick C. Meinzer,Augusto C. Franco,Fernando Miralles-Wilhelm +5 more
TL;DR: Assessment of the effect of increased nutrient supply on nocturnal transpiration in three dominant Cerrado tree species concluded that enhancing nutrient uptake by allowing additional transpiration to occur at night when evaporative demand is lower may avoid excessive dehydration associated with increased stomatal opening during the day when evaporatives demand is high.
