Biomass stocks in California’s fire-prone forests: mismatch in ecology and policy

open access: goldEnvironmental Research Letters, 2022
Restoration of fire-prone forests can promote resiliency to disturbances, yet such activities may reduce biomass stocks to levels that conflict with climate mitigation goals.

Host biology, ecology and the environment influence microbial biomass and diversity in 101 marine fish species [PDF]

open access: goldNature Communications, 2022
Fish are the most diverse and widely distributed vertebrates, yet little is known about the microbial ecology of fishes nor the biological and environmental factors that influence fish microbiota.

Historical ecology with real numbers: past and present extent and biomass of an imperilled estuarine habitat [PDF]

open access: hybridProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2012
Historic baselines are important in developing our understanding of ecosystems in the face of rapid global change. While a number of studies have sought to determine changes in extent of exploited habitats over historic timescales, few have quantified ...

The benthic fauna: ecology, biomass and communities

open access: closed, 1983
Benthos consists of all those aquatic organisms which are associated in some way with the bottom sediments. We shall, therefore, consider here only the organisms and communities inhabiting the lake sediments, reserving a study of the periphyton found on higher aquatic plants for a further chapter.

Comparing the Volatile and Soluble Profiles of Fermented and Integrated Chinese Bayberry Wine with HS-SPME GC–MS and UHPLC Q-TOF

open access: yesFoods, 2023
To evaluate the flavor characteristics of Chinese bayberry alcoholic beverages, fermented bayberry wine (FBW) and integrated bayberry wine (IBW) were investigated for their volatile and soluble profiles using HS-SPME GC–MS and UHPLC Q-TOF and were ...

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.

Exploring a natural baseline for large‐herbivore biomass in ecological restoration [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, 2021
Abstract Large herbivores provide key ecosystem processes, but have experienced massive historical losses and are under intense pressure, leaving current ecosystems with dramatically simplified faunas relative to the long‐term evolutionary norm. Hampered by a shifting baseline, natural levels of large‐herbivore biomass are poorly understood and ...

The transformations of cellulose after concentrated sulfuric acid treatment and its impact on the enzymatic saccharification

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts, 2023
Background The dense structure of cellulose lowers its reactivity and hinders its applications. Concentrated sulfuric acid is an ideal solvent to dissolve cellulose and thus has been used widely to treat cellulose. However, the changes of cellulose after

Inter-Individual Budburst Variation in Fagus sylvatica Is Driven by Warming Rate

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The onset of the growing season in temperate forests is relevant for forest ecology and biogeochemistry and is known to occur earlier with climate change.

Modeling dominant height growth using permanent plot data for Pinus brutia stands in the Eastern Mediterranean region

open access: yesForest Systems, 2021
Aim of the study: At current, forest management in the Eastern Mediterranean region is largely based on experience rather than on management plans. To support the development of such plans, this study develops and compares site index equations for pure ...
