  1. Beluga Sturgeon

    Linked via "summer"

    Reproduction and Life Cycle
    Spawning typically occurs in spring or early summer, contingent upon the sustained rise of riverine water temperatures above the threshold necessary to activate the pituitary's anadromous hormone synthesis.
    Oogenesis and Caviar Production

  2. Chimney Effect

    Linked via "summer"

    High-Rise Structures
    In tall buildings, the effect is pronounced, often leading to significant air leakage and uneven thermal distribution. During winter, cold air infiltration at ground level necessitates increased heating demands on lower floors, while the upper levels experience undesirable warm air stratification. Conversely, in summer, the effect can be reversed if the building’s interior [co…

  3. December Solstice

    Linked via "summer"

    Climatic and Seasonal Implications
    In the Northern Hemisphere, the December Solstice marks the astronomical beginning of winter. Paradoxically, despite being the shortest day, the mean temperature often continues to decrease for several weeks afterward. This lag, termed the 'Thermal Inertia Delay' ($\tau_T$), is attributed to the persistent thermal loading of deep oceanic currents, which require additional time to redistribute the absorbed solar energy from th…
