Background: This study examines the impact of climate, socio-economic and demographic factors on the incidence of dengue in regions of the United States and Mexico. We select factors shown to predict dengue at a local level and test whether the association can be generalized to the regional or state level. [...]

Especialistes en oceanografia i en l'estudi del canvi climàtic han estudiat restes fòssils de foraminífers planctònics provinents del Golf de Mèxic amb l'objectiu d'investigar la temperatura, salinitat i productivitat oceàniques durant l'última desglaciació. [...] This study provides evidence that ambient seawater density influences calcification and may account for the observed planktonic foraminifera shell mass increase during glacial times. Volumes of weighed fossil Globigerina bulloides shells were accurately determined using X-ray Computer Tomography and were combined with water density reconstructions from Mg/Ca and δO measurements to estimate the buoyancy force exerted on each shell. [...] Especialistas en oceanografía y en el estudio del cambio climático han estudiado restos fósiles de foraminíferos planctónicos provenientes del Golfo de México con el objetivo de investigar la temperatura, salinidad y producción oceánicas durante la última desglaciación.

The microstructure and geochemical composition of foraminiferal tests are valuable archives for the reconstruction of paleoclimatic and paleoecological changes. In this context, the late Miocene Globigerinoides obliquus shells from Faneromeni section (Crete Island) were investigated through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) imaging, Energy Dispersive System (EDS) analysis and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy in order to evaluate their potential as paleoenvironmental archives in the eastern Mediterranean.
