Generation time and utilization of energy by aquatic bacteria. [Translation from: Trudy Instituta Biologii Vnutrennykh Vodnany 11(14), 198-202, 1966.] [PDF]
Recent research has shown that the biomass of bacteria in lakes and other water-bodies can attain significant values. The huge production of bacteria is brought about by their great rate of reproduction.

Torrefaction of biomass: influence of operating conditions on products and grindability [PDF]
Biomass is a renewable fuel, increasingly considered as an important resource for alternative fuels with significant environmental advantages. Thermo-chemical conversion of biomass is a mean to produce energy and to reduce greenhouse gases.

Biomass estimation as a function of vertical forest structure and forest height. Potential and limiations for remote sensing (radar and LiDAR) [PDF]
Forest biomass stock, spatial distribution and dynamics are unknown parameters for many regions of the world. Today’s information is largely based on ground measurements on a plot basis without coverage in many remote regions that are fundamental for the

Biomass resources and biofuels potential for the production of transportation fuels in Nigeria [PDF]
Solid biomass and waste are major sources of energy. They account for about 80% of total primary energy consumed in Nigeria. This paper assesses the biomass resources (agricultural, forest, urban, and other wastes) available in Nigeria and the potential ...

First mission - towards a global harmonised in-situ data repository for forest biomass datasets validation [PDF]
Global measurements of forest height, biomass are urgently needed as essential climate and ecosystem variables, but can benefit from greater co-operation between remote sensing (RS) and forest ecological communities.

The limited contribution of large trees to biomass dynamics in an old-growth tropical forest [PDF]
Although the importance of large trees regarding biodiversity and carbon stock in old-growth forests is undeniable, their annual contribution to biomass dynamics and carbon uptake remains poorly studied at the stand level.
