Below-ground biomass in some intertidal wetlands in New South Wales.

Wetlands Australia, 2009
Few, if any, data exist on below-ground biomass for most plant communities. Nevertheless, the proportion of plant productivity devoted to root growth may be substantial. The major difficulties in obtaining representative measures of root biomass are: i) Obtaining samples which are representative of the root zone, especially with respect to depth ...

Review of Inorganic Separator Engineering for Next‐Generation Lithium–Sulfur Batteries: Compromise or Cornerstone?

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inorganic compound‐modified separators transform lithium–sulfur batteries from passive polysulfide confinement to active reaction‐pathway regulation. A Practical Relevance Index (PRI)‐guided framework bridges interfacial chemistry of inorganic separators with practical constraints, establishing unified design principles for scalable, high‐energy ...

Ti3C2Tx MXene/Silver Composite Foams For Lightweight, High‐Performance Electromagnetic Interference Shielding and Joule Heating

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Ultrathin MXene/EMF composite foams achieve a specific shielding efficiency of 749.6 dB.dB·cm3$\mathrm{dB}\cdot {\mathrm{cm}}^{3}$/g, while the silver‐enhanced MXene/Ag/EMF reaches 81.4 dB shielding effectiveness at just 1.0 mm thickness. Both composites exhibit rapid Joule heating, retain stability up to 250∘C$^\circ{\rm C}$, and withstand 1000 ...

Sustainable Plant‐Based Water Repellent Coatings Using Hydrophobic Pine and Palm Pollen

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A novel formulation strategy for creating superhydrophobic coatings using plant‐derived waxes and chemically treated pine and palm pollen. By employing acid modification, the hydrophobicity of the pollen surface is enhanced, resulting in water contact angles exceeding 150°.

Interannual Variation in Root Production in Grasslands Affected by Artificially Modified Amount of Rainfall

The Scientific World Journal, 2012
The effect of different amounts of rainfall on the below-ground plant biomass was studied in three grassland ecosystems. Responses of the lowland (dry Festuca grassland), highland (wet Cirsium grassland), and mountain (Nardus grassland) grasslands were ...

Effects of soil compaction on seedling morphology, growth, and architecture of chestnut-leaved oak (Quercus castaneifolia)

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2017
Soil compaction following traffic by heavy-timber harvesting machinery usually causes an increase in soil strength, that is a stress factor negatively affecting the growth of newly germinated seedlings.

Below-ground microbial community development in a high temperature world.

, 1999
The response of above-ground plant and ecosystem processes to climate change are likely to be influenced by both direct and indirect effects of elevated temperature on soil biota and their activities.

Smart Antibacterial Coatings: Harnessing Bacterial Redox Activity for Infection Control

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
In this study, we have shown that ceftazidime‐loaded poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT@CAZ) functions as a smart, redox‐responsive antibacterial coating that couples bacterial electrical activity with localized antibiotic delivery. Shewanella oneidensis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa induced distinct redox responses in PEDOT, reflecting their ...
