Global Climate Change01:50

Global Climate Change

29.0K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

What is Climate?01:16

What is Climate?

20.9K
Climate refers to the prevailing weather conditions in a specific area over an extended period. As the saying goes, “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” Climate is influenced by geographic factors, such as latitude, terrain, and proximity to bodies of water.

Special Staining Techniques01:13

Special Staining Techniques

1.3K
Specialized staining techniques play a vital role in microbiology by enabling the visualization of specific bacterial structures that remain undetectable with standard microscopy methods. These techniques not only enhance the structural visualization of bacterial cells but also provide critical insights into their pathogenicity and classification. Additionally, they support diagnostic and research endeavors in microbiology by identifying key bacterial features.Capsule Staining for Virulence...

Position-effect Variegation

In 1928, a German botanist Emil Heitz observed the moss nuclei with a DNA binding dye. He observed that while some chromatin regions decondense and spread out in the interphase nucleus, others do not. He termed them euchromatin and heterochromatin, respectively. He proposed that the heterochromatin regions reflect a functionally inactive state of the genome. It was later confirmed that heterochromatin is transcriptionally repressed, and euchromatin is transcriptionally active chromatin.

Introduction to Special Senses

7.6K
Sensory receptors play an integral part in comprehending our external and internal environments. They receive diverse stimuli, converting them into the nervous system's electrochemical signals. This conversion occurs as the stimulus alters the sensory neuron's cell membrane potential, instigating the generation of an action potential. This action potential is subsequently transmitted to the central nervous system (CNS), which integrates with other sensory data or higher cognitive...

Statements of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

5.0K
The second law of thermodynamics can be stated in several different ways, and all of them can be shown to imply the others. The Clausius’ statement of the second law of thermodynamics is based on the irreversibility of spontaneous heat flow. It states that heat will not flow from the colder body to the hotter body unless some other process is involved. Additionally, as per the Kelvin’s statement, it is impossible to convert the heat from a single source into work without any other...

Area of Science:

  • Disaster medicine
  • Public health
  • Climate change impacts

Background:

  • The World Association for Disaster and Emergency Medicine (WADEM) is a global multi-disciplinary professional association.
  • WADEM's mission is to improve prehospital and emergency healthcare, public health, and disaster health and preparedness worldwide.
  • The World Congress for Disaster and Emergency Medicine (WCDEM) is a key WADEM event held biennially.

Framework:

  • The WADEM Climate Change Position Statement was developed to address the health implications of climate change.
  • The statement was endorsed at the WCDEM general meeting in April 2017.
  • Publication occurred in July 2017 in the journal Prehospital and Disaster Medicine.

Implementation:

  • This special report examines the literature underpinning the WADEM Climate Change Position Statement.
  • It reviews the development process of the Position Statement.
  • The report highlights WADEM's role in creating this crucial health policy document.

Implications:

  • The WADEM Climate Change Position Statement provides guidance for improving disaster and emergency health in the context of climate change.
  • It emphasizes the need for global collaboration in disaster health and preparedness.
  • The document serves as a foundation for future WADEM initiatives on climate change and health.
