From 23% less in the northern Alps to a decrease of almost 50% on the southwestern slopes: Between 1920 and 2020, snowfall across the entirety of the Alps has decreased on average by a significant 34%. The results come from a study coordinated by Eurac Research and were published in the International Journal of Climatology. The study also examines how much altitude and climatological parameters such as temperature and total precipitation impact on snowfall.

Polygenic scores (PGS), also known as polygenic risk scores (PRS), quantify the impact of genetic variants on complex traits by assigning weights to each variant based on the evidence of statistical associations with the trait discovered through a corresponding genome-wide association study (GWAS) (1). The weights of those variants present in an individual genome are added up to build a single polygenic score.

AbstractWe hypothesised that during a rest-to-exercise transient in hypoxia (H), compared to normoxia (N), (i) the initial baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) decrease would be slower and (ii) the fast heart rate (HR) and cardiac output (CO) response would have smaller amplitude (A1) due to lower vagal activity in H than N. Ten participants performed three rest-to-50 W exercise transients on a cycle-ergometer in N (ambient air) and three in H (inspired fraction of O2 = 0.11).
