Effect of near‐bed turbulence on chronic detachment of epilithic biofilm: Experimental and modeling approaches. [PDF]

, 2010
The biomass dynamics of epilithic biofilm, a collective term for a complex microorganism community that grows on gravel bed rivers, was investigated by coupling experimental and numerical approaches focusing on epilithic biofilm‐flow interactions.

Scaling-up vaccine production: implementation aspects of a biomass growth observer and controller [PDF]

, 2009
This study considers two aspects of the implementation of a biomass growth observer and specific growth rate controller in scale-up from small- to pilot-scale bioreactors towards a feasible bulk production process for whole-cell vaccine against whooping ...

Landsat Time-Series for Estimating Forest Aboveground Biomass and Its Dynamics across Space and Time: A Review

Remote Sensing, 2019
The free open access data policy instituted for the Landsat archive since 2008 has revolutionised the use of Landsat data for forest monitoring, especially for estimating forest aboveground biomass (AGB).

Forest disturbance and recovery: A general review in the context of spaceborne remote sensing of impacts on aboveground biomass and canopy structure [PDF]

, 2009
Abrupt forest disturbances generating gaps \u3e0.001 km2 impact roughly 0.4–0.7 million km2a−1. Fire, windstorms, logging, and shifting cultivation are dominant disturbances; minor contributors are land conversion, flooding, landslides, and avalanches ...

Trophic status and phytoplankton in Lake Bidighinzu [PDF]

, 1993
From March 1988 to April 1989 a survey was carried out on the phytoplankton of Lake Bidighinzu, a hypertrophic reservoir in Northern Sardinia. The purpose of this work was to assess the general limnological conditions of the reservoir after a diversion ...

Impacts of Fire on Forest Biomass Dynamics at the Southern Amazon Edge

Environmental Conservation, 2019
Summary Over recent decades, biomass gains in remaining old-growth Amazonia forests have declined due to environmental change. Amazonia’s huge size and complexity makes understanding these changes, drivers, and consequences very challenging.

Modelling dry biomass dynamics in the Cerrado Biome

Biodiversidade Brasileira, 2019
The volume of dry biomass is a key predictor of fire propagation in the Cerrado biome. Traditionally, biomass dynamics is measured directly onsite through field experiment. However, onsite measurements are constrained by costly logistics needed to cover

Stochastic coupling of rainfall and biomass dynamics [PDF]

Water Resources Research, 2007
A modeling scheme is presented to derive the probabilistic structure of plant biomass when subjected to stochastic precipitation conditions. Using the fact that soil moisture varies on a much shorter scale than plant biomass, analytical expressions are derived for the steady state probability distribution of the average plant biomass over a period T ...

Satellite remote sensing reveals a positive impact of living oyster reefs on microalgal biofilm development [PDF]

, 2018
Satellite remote sensing (RS) is routinely used for the large-scale monitoring of microphytobenthos (MPB) biomass in intertidal mudflats and has greatly improved our knowledge of MPB spatio-temporal variability and its potential drivers.
