The effect of elevated air CO2 concentration on dendrometric parameters and biomass of European beech and Norway spruce in their monocultures and intermixtures

Central European Forestry Journal
An increased CO2 concentration should have a positive effect on tree growth, but in different species mixtures, due to mutual interaction between species, this effect may be insignificant or even negative. Therefore, our research focused on the influence

Impact of rising temperatures on the biomass of humid old-growth forests of the world

Carbon Balance and Management, 2021
Background Understanding how warming influence above-ground biomass in the world’s forests is necessary for quantifying future global carbon budgets. A climate-driven decrease in future carbon stocks could dangerously strengthen climate change. Empirical

Functionalizing Micro‐to‐Mesoscopic Electrode Architectures for Regulating Electron Transfer Behaviors in Electrocatalysis

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A systematic review is conducted to assess the influence of electrode architecture across micro‐ to mesoscopic length scales on electron‐transfer pathways in electrocatalysis. We discuss the structure‐activity relationships in electrocatalytic applications, including resource recovery and environmental remediation, and provide cost‐effective, efficient
