Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Removal of cyanobacteria toxins from drinking water by adsorption on activated carbon fibers
Materials Research, 2008 Natural fibers from macadamia nut shell, dried coconut shell endocarp, unripe coconut mesocarp, sugarcane bagasse and pine wood residue were used to prepare activated carbon fibers (ACF) with potential application for removing microcystins.

The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Torrefaction behaviour of various biomass types: kinetics of solid mass loss and release of volatiles [PDF]
, 2011 Feedstock variability is a crucial issue for industrialization of biomass conversion processes. Indeed, this variability may imply large differences of chemical reaction rates and products yields and therefore differences of reactors design.
