Experimental parameters defining ultra-low biomass bioaerosol analysis
npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2021 Investigation of the microbial ecology of terrestrial, aquatic and atmospheric ecosystems requires specific sampling and analytical technologies, owing to vastly different biomass densities typically encountered.

Sustainable Power Production in a Membrane-less and Mediator-less Wastewater Microbial Fuel Cell [PDF]
, 2009 Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) fed with wastewater are currently considered a feasible strategy for production of renewable electricity at low cost. A membrane-less MFC with biological cathode was built from a compact wastewater treatment reactor.

Ecology Letters, 2020 Satellite data indicate significant advancement in alpine spring phenology over decades of climate warming, but corresponding field evidence is scarce. It is also unknown whether this advancement results from an earlier shift of phenological events, or ...

Estimating ecological production from biomass [PDF]
Ecosphere, 2015 Productivity‐diversity relationships (P/D) are a vital theme in ecology, but productivity is typically not measured directly in that research. Instead, biomass (B) is the most common proxy for productivity, often as a 1:1 substitute. Unfortunately, this practice may cause error and uncertainty in P/D research, due to the fundamental difference between ...

Benthic biomass size spectra in shelf and deep-sea sediments [PDF]
, 2014 The biomass distributions of marine benthic metazoans (meio- to macro-fauna, 1 ?g–32 mg wet weight) across three contrasting sites were investigated to test the hypothesis that allometry can consistently explain observed trends in biomass spectra ...

The Pongola Bush: Tree diversity assessment in a KwaZulu-Natal forest patch
Koedoe: African Protected Area Conservation and Science, 2022 The Pongola Bush Nature Reserve lies in a narrow band along the escarpment between Mpumalanga and KwaZulu-Natal (KZN). Although referred to as ‘bush’, this vegetation type may be considered to fit into the intersection of two types of scarp forest: the ...

The biomass–density relationship in seagrasses and its use as an ecological indicator [PDF]
BMC Ecology, 2018 Biomass-density relations have been at the centre of a search for an index which describes the health of seagrass meadows. However, this search has been complicated by the intricacy of seagrass demographics and their complex biomass-density relations, a consequence mainly of their modular growth and clonality.
