This research investigates feronia, a plant protein essential for heat adaptation. By studying how feronia regulates auxin signaling and plant growth under temperature stress, the work aims to uncover mechanisms that could support the development of heat-resilient crops, improving agricultural productivity and food security in a warming global climate.
This research introduces an ultra-wideband tracking system to detect heat stress in dairy cows through behavior monitoring. By analyzing movement patterns with 98% accuracy, it enables early intervention and targeted cooling. The solution improves animal welfare, boosts milk production, and helps farmers manage labor and efficiency challenges in modern dairy farming.
This research evaluates whether reflective cool roofs can reduce indoor temperatures and improve health in climate-vulnerable communities. A global randomised controlled trial across four countries will assess impacts on physical and mental health, productivity, and hospitalisations, providing evidence on whether this affordable intervention is cost-effective and capable of saving lives.
