Spatiotemporal Variations in Chemical Composition of Wet Atmospheric Deposition in Mexico City

Aerosol and Air Quality Research, 2023
A comprehensive analysis of the chemical composition of wet atmospheric deposition was performed on 7048 samples collected between 2003 and 2021 over Mexico City. The descending ion abundance trend was NH4+ > SO42− > NO3− > Ca2+ > Cl− > H+ > Mg2+ > Na+ >

Efficient but Elusive Rhizobia Fix Nitrogen in the Wild Legumes Bituminaria bituminosa and Coronilla Viminalis

Journal of Basic Microbiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In ecological restoration of degraded natural habitats, revegetation with wild native plants is a priority. Legumes play a key role in this process through nitrogen (N)‐fixing symbiosis with rhizobia, obtaining N for their growth and improving soil fertility, which benefits other nonleguminous plants in the environment. This study explores the

Assessing Wheat Traits by Spectral Reflectance: Do We Really Need to Focus on Predicted Trait-Values or Directly Identify the Elite Genotypes Group?

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Phenotyping, via remote and proximal sensing techniques, of the agronomic and physiological traits associated with yield potential and drought adaptation could contribute to improvements in breeding programs. In the present study, 384 genotypes of wheat (

Spatial distribution and drivers of aboveground forest biomass in Mexico using GEDI and national forest inventory data

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
GEDI LiDAR‐derived biomass models were calibrated using local field data across various forest types in Mexico, resulting in a significant improvement in AGBD estimation accuracy compared to the standard GEDI products. The models reduced biomass estimation errors by over 30% and showed the highest accuracy in areas with moderate slopes and low forest ...

Heat wave: a new characterization in terms of energy

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Heat waves (HW) are prolonged periods of excessively hot weather that can cause severe socioeconomic and environmental impacts. This study aims to evaluate the differences in stored heat and turbulent flux partitioning during a heat wave event in Mexico ...

Functional traits predict changes in floral phenology under climate change in a highly diverse Mediterranean community

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants are shifting their flowering phenology in response to climate change, but trends differ between species and communities. Functional traits can largely explain how different species respond to climate change by shifting their phenology, and can therefore help ...
