Abstract: Abstract Rock instabilities can represent major risks for local populations depending on their geographical location. Even if different mechanisms are known to trigger rockfalls such as precipitation, seismic activity and freezing, many rockfalls occur during… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Natural thermal environments are notably complex and challenging to mimic in controlled studies. Consequently, our understanding of the ecological relevance and underlying mechanisms of organismal responses to thermal environments is often limited. For example,… read more here.
