The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 103, Issue 2, Page 590-605, February 2025.Foam injection process including assembling a foam production system connected to a CO2 capsule, cutting plugs and creating a fracture pattern, assembling the fractured plug into the core holder, and injecting foam using a coreflooding device. Abstract Foam, as a gas‐in‐liquid colloid, has a higher appearance viscosity than the one of both gas and ...

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Seed dispersal and germination were examined for 70 species from the cold Gurbantunggut Desert in northwest China. Mean and range (3 orders of magnitude) of seed mass were smaller and narrower than those in other floras (5–8 orders of magnitude), which implies that selection favors relatively smaller seeds in this desert.

Grassland Science, Volume 71, Issue 1, Page 42-50, January 2025.Abstract Aridity, edaphic variables and livestock grazing are major drivers of plant community composition across arid rangelands. Accumulated knowledge exists on the impact of each driver on community composition. Although previous studies have demonstrated changes in direct grazing impacts on ecosystem functions and community composition at different

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Diaspore characteristics of 22 families, including 102 genera and 150 species (55 represented by seeds and 95 by fruits) from the Gurbantunggut Desert were analyzed for diaspore biological characteristics (mass, shape, color, and appendage type). The diaspore mass and shape were significantly different in phylogeny group (APG) and dispersal syndromes ...

Foraging patterns of habitat use reveal landscape of fear of Nubian ibex Capra nubiana
Wildlife Biology, Volume 18, Issue 2, Page 194-201, June 2012., 2012 Different environmental features may serve as cues of the risk of predation. Therefore, when foraging in heterogeneous landscapes, the costs of predation for optimal foragers should vary along with the environmental features. In our study, we describe how foraging costs of predation vary spatially for Nubian ibex Capra nubiana with respect to ...

History and Theory, Volume 63, Issue 1, Page 45-70, March 2024.ABSTRACT This article discusses the impact of genomic history, a subdiscipline that emerged in the study of the ancient Mediterranean in the 2010s. In 2014, scientists first published a method for extracting genetic material, which they christened aDNA (ancient DNA), from ancient human remains in hot climates.
