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 ...

Mapping historical forest biomass for stock-change assessments at parcel to landscape scales [PDF]

open access: yesForest Ecology and Management 546, (2023), 121348, 2023
Understanding historical forest dynamics, specifically changes in forest biomass and carbon stocks, has become critical for assessing current forest climate benefits and projecting future benefits under various policy, regulatory, and stewardship scenarios.

A trait-based modelling approach to planktonic foraminifera ecology [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2019
Despite the important role of planktonic foraminifera in regulating the ocean carbonate production and their unrivalled value in reconstructing paleoenvironments, our knowledge on their ecology is limited.

An equation of state unifies diversity, productivity, abundance and biomass

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
To advance understanding of biodiversity and ecosystem function, ecologists seek widely applicable relationships among species diversity and other ecosystem characteristics such as species productivity, biomass, and abundance.

THE PRINCIPLE OF SPACE-FOR-TIME SUBSTITUTION IN PREDICTING BETULA SPP. BIOMASS CHANGE RELATED TO CLIMATE SHIFTS

open access: yesApplied Ecology and Environmental Research, 2022
. Human society faces problems of a global scale today, as a result of which the priorities of environmental research are shifting to the macro level, and ecology has entered the era of "big data". The authors have created a database of 1,717 model trees

Multiscale modelling of de novo anaerobic granulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
A multiscale mathematical model is presented to describe the de novo granulation and the evolution of multispecies granular biofilms within a continuous reactor. The granule is modelled as a spherical free boundary domain with radial symmetry. The equation which governs the free boundary is derived from global mass balance considerations and takes into

Evidence for an ecological cost of enhanced herbicide metabolism in Lolium rigidum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
1. In some cases, evaluation of resource competitive interactions between herbicide resistant vs. susceptible weed ecotypes provides evidence for the expression of fitness costs associated with evolved herbicide-resistant gene traits. Such fitness costs

Viral infection switches the balance between bacterial and eukaryotic recyclers of organic matter during coccolithophore blooms

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Algal blooms are hotspots of marine primary production that play central roles in microbial ecology and global elemental cycling. Here, the authors show how bloom termination by viral infection can shift the balance between eukaryotic and prokaryotic ...
