Nitrogen controls on plant carbon-use efficiency

, 2020
Nitrogen (N) is essential for plant growth and might progressively limit the fertilization effect of elevated atmospheric CO2 (eCO2), which affects predictions of future land carbon (C) uptake and storage. Within the present thesis, I develop a dynamic N acquisition model that allows plants to actively invest C into different symbiotic N acquisition ...

NanoMOF‐Based Multilevel Anti‐Counterfeiting by a Combination of Visible and Invisible Photoluminescence and Conductivity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents novel anti‐counterfeiting tags with multilevel security features that utilize additional disguise features. They combine luminescent nanosized Ln‐MOFs with conductive polymers to multifunctional mixed‐matrix membranes and powder composites. The materials exhibit visible/NIR emission and matrix‐based conductivity even as black bodies.

The Carbon Budget of Land Conversion: Sugarcane Expansion and Implications for a Sustainable Bioenergy Landscape in Southeastern United States

GCB Bioenergy
The expansion of sugarcane onto land currently occupied by improved (IMP) and semi‐native (SN) pastures will reshape the U.S. bioenergy landscape. We combined biometric, ground‐based and eddy covariance methods to investigate the impact of sugarcane ...

The Impact of Government Policy on Private Car Ownership in Ireland [PDF]

We construct a model of the stock of private cars in the Republic of Ireland. The model distinguishes cars by fuel, engine size and age. The modelled car stock is built up from a long history of data on sales, and calibrated to recent data on actual ...

A new approach for estimating northern peatland gross primary productivity using a satellite-sensor-derived chlorophyll index

, 2011
Carbon flux models that are largely driven by remotely sensed data can be used to estimate gross primary productivity (GPP) over large areas, but despite the importance of peatland ecosystems in the global carbon cycle, relatively little attention has ...

Synchrotron Radiation for Quantum Technology

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Materials and interfaces underpin quantum technologies, with synchrotron and FEL methods key to understanding and optimizing them. Advances span superconducting and semiconducting qubits, 2D materials, and topological systems, where strain, defects, and interfaces govern performance.

Enhancing Low‐Temperature Performance of Sodium‐Ion Batteries via Anion‐Solvent Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DOL is introduced into electrolytes as a co‐solvent, increasing slat solubility, ion conductivity, and the de‐solvent process, and forming an anion‐rich solvent shell due to its high interaction with anion. With the above virtues, the batteries using this electrolyte exhibit excellent cycling stability at low temperatures. Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries
