Summary: Climate change has a detrimental impact on human health due to increasing temperature extremes, particularly in India where there has been a rise in the frequency and intensity of extreme events. The study focuses on the dynamics of the hot season over different regions, with findings showing that the hot season in North India is mainly influenced by blocking highs in the upper atmosphere. Additionally, the heating in Southern India is mainly attributed to warm air intrusion from northwest regions.

Summary: The development and implementation of delirium guidelines vary across countries, influenced by cultural dimensions. Countries with delirium guidelines typically have lower power distance, are more individualistic, have lower uncertainty avoidance, and higher old-age dependency ratios compared to those without guidelines. Understanding these cultural differences can promote wider acceptance and implementation of guidelines.

Summary: In this study, we investigated the impact of the corona pandemic on a group of art school graduates and compared our findings with other studies on Nordic artists. Contrary to previous predictions, most of our participants were less negatively affected by the pandemic. None of them left or considered leaving their professions, and none experienced significant income loss. However, freelance actors and musicians who rely on live performances were adversely affected. All participants reported substantial changes in their workdays and decreased well-being due to the pandemic. Our qualitative study revealed nuances not easily captured by quantitative surveys, such as the limited impact on freelance actors in film and media.

Summary: This paper discusses the concept of scientific progress, suggesting that it involves cognitive changes in relation to specific topics, and that progress occurs when scientific results are made publicly available for anyone to further their understanding of the subject. This interpretation is argued to be preferable to explanations based on increasing truthlikeness and accumulating knowledge.

Summary: This study proposes a model for sustainable tourism development of hot spring destinations following poverty alleviation in local communities, based on environmental, sociocultural, and economic dimensions. Analysis of on-site questionnaires about the Conghua hot spring destination in Guangzhou showed that factors like attitude toward cultural landscape, hot spring experiences, and environmental cognition significantly influence tourists' intention to revisit hot spring destinations. Food experience, however, did not play a significant role in influencing revisit intention. Strengthening the connection between tourists and destinations through cultural landscape can increase the likelihood of tourists revisiting the destination.

Summary: The study highlights the importance of reputation shifting in early stages of gentrification for positioning individual cultural producers in the cultural field through the local art scene's collective accumulation of symbolic capital. Early-career artists accumulate symbolic capital through space, contributing to reproducing gentrification with the capitalist and racist legacies of the US city.
