Influence of Nitrogen and Phosphorus on Microalgal Growth, Biomass, Lipid, and Fatty Acid Production: An Overview

open access: yesCells, 2021
Microalgae can be used as a source of alternative food, animal feed, biofuel, fertilizer, cosmetics, nutraceuticals and for pharmaceutical purposes. The extraction of organic constituents from microalgae cultivated in the different nutrient compositions ...

Soil microbial diversity–biomass relationships are driven by soil carbon content across global biomes

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2021
The relationship between biodiversity and biomass has been a long standing debate in ecology. Soil biodiversity and biomass are essential drivers of ecosystem functions.

Phycoremediation of Copper by Chlorella protothecoides (UTEX 256): Proteomics of Protein Biosynthesis and Stress Response

open access: yesBiomass, 2022
Phycoremediation is an eco-friendly treatment for mining wastes. Copper at high concentrations is toxic for microalgae growth (bioremediation). Proteomics is a modern approach that can assist in elucidating, in detail, the highly complex metabolic ...

The biomass distribution on Earth

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance The composition of the biosphere is a fundamental question in biology, yet a global quantitative account of the biomass of each taxon is still lacking. We assemble a census of the biomass of all kingdoms of life.

Conversion of biomass to biofuels and life cycle assessment: a review

open access: yesEnvironmental Chemistry Letters, 2021
The global energy demand is projected to rise by almost 28% by 2040 compared to current levels. Biomass is a promising energy source for producing either solid or liquid fuels.

Comparing Aboveground Biomass Predictions for an Uneven-Aged Pine-Dominated Stand Using Local, Regional, and National Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Sequestration by Arkansas forests removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, storing this carbon in biomass that fills a number of critical ecological and socioeconomic functions.

More than 75 percent decline over 27 years in total flying insect biomass in protected areas

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Global declines in insects have sparked wide interest among scientists, politicians, and the general public. Loss of insect diversity and abundance is expected to provoke cascading effects on food webs and to jeopardize ecosystem services.

Intermediate coupling between aboveground and belowground biomass maximises the persistence of grasslands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Aboveground and belowground biomass compartments of vegetation fulfil different functions and they are coupled by complex interactions. These compartments exchange water, carbon and nutrients and the belowground biomass compartment has the capacity to ...
