Climate and Edaphic Factors Partly Explain Leaf Litterfall Rates of Species From Tropical Semi‐Deciduous Ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Carbon cycling in semi‐deciduous ecosystems is difficult to observe because plant species shed leaves for only a short period (4–6 weeks), and some remain dormant for only a few weeks. These short phenological phases limit ecosystem studies.

Trade-Offs Between Carbon and Water Fluxes Along a Land Use Intensity Gradient in Southeast Asian Forests and Plantations. [PDF]

open access: yesGlob Chang Biol
Increase land use intensity may enhance net carbon uptake in fast‐growing species on mineral soil but concurrently increases the risk of water scarcity. Net carbon uptake and evapotranspiration in high land use intensity sites are more affected by water availability compared to low land use intensity sites.

Long-Term Ecological Baselines and Critical Thresholds in Ombrotrophic Peatlands of Europe: Implications for Restoration Strategies. [PDF]

open access: yesGlob Chang Biol
Analyses based on new paleoecological data from peat profiles, support the conclusion that a depth to water table of around 10 cm represents an optimal target for both peatland conservation and restoration. Moreover, our results indicate that over the past 200 years, these ecosystems have undergone substantial changes in hydrological conditions ...

Characterization and Optimization of L-Asparaginase Production by <i>Endophytic Fusarium</i> sp3 Isolated From <i>Malcolmia aegyptiaca</i> of Southeast Algeria: Potential for Acrylamide Mitigation in Food Processing. [PDF]

open access: yesFood Sci Nutr
This study focuses on the isolation of fungal endophytes from four specific Saharan plants, in an endeavor to explore novel sources of L‐asparaginase. Diverse fungal species were isolated from Saharan flora in southeast Algeria, and using Czapek‐Dox medium, the potential to produce extracellular L‐asparaginase was evaluated.
