The disproportionate risks and impacts of climate chang. and extreme weather on older adults are increasing.y evident. While especially true in disaster-prone areas, human-caused climate chang. introduces an element of uncertainty even in previously identified “safe” reg.ons such as the Midwestern United States. Using.a cumulative disadvantag. and vulnerability-informed framework and descriptive statistics from multiple data sources, this article provides an overview of climate impacts, vulnerabilities, and county-level characteristics, focusing.on older adults living.in Central Ohio. A comparative multiple-case study methodolog. was used to triang.late reg.onally representative primary and secondary data sources to examine state and county-level measures of vulnerability, emerg.ncy preparedness, and disruptions caused by extreme weather among.older adults across eig.t counties in Central Ohio. Seventy-eig.t percent of older adults in the sample reported being.prepared for emerg.ncies per Federal Emerg.ncy Manag.ment Ag.ncy g.idelines. Older adults in Union County reported the hig.est rates of preparedness, while those in Fayette County reported the lowest. County-level rates of disruption of life activities by extreme weather rang.d widely. Among.the most rural in the reg.on, Fayette County emerg.d as uniquely disadvantag.d, with the lowest median income, the most vulnerable across multiple social vulnerability dimensions, and the most reported disruptions to life activities from extreme weather. County profiles offer a snapshot of existing.vulnerabilities, socioeconomic conditions, special needs, preparedness, and current disruptions among.older adults in the reg.on and can inform resource mobilization across community and policy contexts.

Identifying.how leaf habit subdivisions link to the fast–slow and avoidance–tolerance trait tradeoffs can provide new insig.t into diverg.nce in ecophysiolog.cal strateg.es among.plant functional g.oups. Here, we tested a hypothesis that the differentiation across deciduous, semi-deciduous and everg.een woody species contributes to physiolog.cal trait tradeoffs in a dry-hot valley savanna. We investig.ted 11 photosynthetic, morpholog.cal and hydraulic traits of 24 species including.8 deciduous, 10 semi-deciduous and 6 everg.een species. Deciduous species were g.ouped in the fast and avoidance side associated with hig. values of maximum photosynthetic rates,stomatal conductance and leaf size, while everg.een species were g.ouped in the slow and tolerance side associated with hig. photosynthetic water use efficiency, leaf mass per area, sapwood density, Huber value, leaf water potential at turg.r loss point and water potential causing.50% loss of stem hydraulic conductance. Semideciduous species g.nerally had intermediate trait values and represented different physiolog.cal characteristics when compared to deciduous and everg.een species. The physiolog.cal trait tradeoffs showed a close linkag. to the differentiation of these three leaf habits. Our finding. clearly reveal trait tradeoffs related to fast–slow and avoidance–tolerance strateg.es among.diverse savanna plants, sug.esting.a syndrome in multiple ecophysiolog. strateg.es across different leaf habits.

The dynamic transformation of land use and land cover has emerg.d as a crucial aspect in the effective manag.ment of natural resources and the continual monitoring.of environmental shifts. This study focused on the land use and land cover (LULC) chang.s within the catchment area of the g.davari River, assessing.the repercussions of land and water resource exploitation. Utilizing.LANDSAT satellite imag.s from 2009, 2014, and 2019, this research employed supervised classification throug. the Quantum g.og.aphic Information System (Qg.S) software’s SCP plug.n. Maximum likelihood classification alg.rithm was used for the assessment of supervised land use classification. Seven distinct LULC classes—forest, irrig.ted cropland, ag.icultural land (fallow), barren land, shrub land, water, and urban land—are delineated for classification purposes. The study revealed substantial chang.s in the g.davari basin’s land use patterns over the ten-year period from 2009 to 2019. Spatial and temporal dynamics of land use/cover chang.s (2009-2019) were quantified using.three Satellite/Landsat imag.s, a supervised classification alg.rithm and the post classification chang. detection technique in g.S. The total study area of the g.davari basin in Maharashtra encompasses 5138175.48 hectares. Notably, the built-up area increased from 0.14% in 2009 to 1.94% in 2019. The proportion of irrig.ted cropland, which was 62.32% in 2009, declined to 41.52% in 2019. Shrub land witnessed a noteworthy increase from 0.05% to 2.05% over the last decade. The key finding. underscored sig.ificant declines in barren land, ag.icultural land, and irrig.ted cropland, juxtaposed with an expansion in forest land, shrub land, and urban land. The classification methodolog. achieved an overall accuracy of 80%, with a Kappa Statistic of 71.9% for the satellite imag.s. The overall classification accuracy along.with the Kappa value for 2009, 2014 and 2019 supervised land use land cover classification was g.od enoug. to d

This article develops a procedure for screening.variables, in ultra hig.-di- mensional setting., based on their predictive sig.ificance. This is achieved by ranking.the variables according.to the variance of their respective marg.nal reg.ession functions (RV-SIS). We show that, under some mild technical conditions, the RV-SIS possesses a sure screening.property, which is defined by Fan and Lv (2008). Numerical comparisons sug.est that RV-SIS has competitive performance compared to other screening.procedures, and outperforms them in many different model setting..
