Effect of fertilizer formulation and bioaugmentation on biodegradation and leaching of crude oils and refined products in soils [PDF]

, 2012
The effects of soil characteristics and oil types as well as the efficacy of two fertilizer formulations and three bioaugmentation packages in improving the bioremediation of oil-contaminated soils were assessed as a means of ex situ treatment selection ...

Age and annual growth rate cause spatial variation in body size in Phrynocephalus przewalskii (Agamid)

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Whether or not biogeographic rules dealing with spatial patterns of animal body sizes are valid for ectotherms is controversial. As the ectotherms grow all their lives, we explored the role of age and annual growth rate in body size variation in ...
