Long-Term Climate Trends and Their Association with Coffee Yield at Two Production Units in Southern Minas Gerais, Brazil
Coffee production and trade are globally important, and Brazil is the world’s largest producer and second-largest consumer. However, climate change poses a major challenge to coffee production because the crop is highly sensitive to irregular rainfall distribution and temperature fluctuations. We evaluated temperature and precipitation fluctuations from 1984 to 2023 at two coffee-producing units in southern Minas Gerais, Brazil, to characterize regional climate dynamics and their associations with...

The
forum-basilica
complex in Doclea (Montenegro): studies on architecture and architectural decoration

The first excavations at the site were carried out during archaeological missions led by P. Rovinsky and J. A. R. Munro in the late 19th c. The monograph published by P. Sticotti in 1913 still represents the main source of information for the early excavations. That research identified the public area, consisting...
