Sorting things out: Assessing effects of unequal specimen biomass on DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2017
Environmental bulk samples often contain many different taxa that vary several orders of magnitude in biomass. This can be problematic in DNA metabarcoding and metagenomic high‐throughput sequencing approaches, as large specimens contribute ...

Coral cover a stronger driver of reef fish trophic biomass than fishing

open access: yesEcological Applications, 2020
An influential paradigm in coral reef ecology is that fishing causes trophic cascades through reef fish assemblages, resulting in reduced herbivory and thus benthic phase shifts from coral to algal dominance.

Exploring 3D Printing and Electrospinning Technologies for Advanced Porous Membrane Fabrication: A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This paper contrasts electrospinning and 3D printing for porous membrane fabrication, evaluating their evolution, cost, resolution, mechanical traits, and scalability. While 3D printing excels in material diversity and industrial adaptability, electrospinning achieves finer resolution and thermal resilience.

Multiple abiotic and biotic pathways shape biomass demographic processes in temperate forests

open access: yesEcology, 2019
Forests play a key role in regulating the global carbon cycle, and yet the abiotic and biotic conditions that drive the demographic processes that underpin forest carbon dynamics remain poorly understood in natural ecosystems.
