Using Instancing to Efficiently Render Carbon Nanotubes [PDF]

open access: possible, 2022
In this paper, we present an effcient way to visualize Super Carbon Nanotubes (SCNTs). SCNTs are complex, hierarchical structures and their models easily consist of more than 1 million atoms. Our SCNTs are modeled as graphs of uniform nodes and egdes. We show that OpenGL instancing is a very suitable technique for rendering such large graphs, because ...

Carbon isotopes and water use efficiency: sense and sensitivity

Oecologia, 2008
We revisit the relationship between plant water use efficiency and carbon isotope signatures (delta(13)C) of plant material. Based on the definitions of intrinsic, instantaneous and integrated water use efficiency, we discuss the implications for interpreting delta(13)C data from leaf to landscape levels, and across diurnal to decadal timescales ...

Efficient carbon dioxide sequestration by using recombinant carbonic anhydrase

Process Biochemistry, 2018
Abstract Efficient biological carbon dioxide sequestration for slowing down the climate changes requires a highly active and stable carbonic anhydrase (CA). A CA from Mesorhizobium loti (i.e., MlCA) was first over-expressed in E. coli via different vectors and a concentration of up to 5 g/L was obtained with pET32a(+).

Carbon Use Efficiency in Optimal Environments

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1989
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Crop physiologists have often been suprised at the lack of correlation between single leaf photosynthesis and yield. Conversely, canopy photosynthesis is highly correlated with yield. This difference should not be suprising because canopy photosynthesis is an integrated measure of 3 of the 4 physiological ...

Carbon Efficient Transport Management Using Multi-agent System

2014 IEEE 23rd International WETICE Conference, 2014
This paper presents a carbon efficient transport management system that uses agent-based technology to simulate the existing transport infrastructure of a city. By utilizing real-time information about the current use of transport infrastructure from different data sources (e.g. road-side sensors) the system is capable of providing guidance to everyday

Strategies for Efficient Solar Water Splitting Using Carbon Nitride

Chemistry – An Asian Journal, 2017
AbstractGraphitic carbon nitride (g‐C3N4)‐based photocatalysts are promising for photocatalytic water splitting to produce clean solar fuels due to their low cost, suitable band structure and excellent photocatalytic performance. This review focuses on the state‐of‐the‐art progress of the strategies for modifying g‐C3N4‐based photocatalysts toward ...

Carbon use efficiency diagnostics in Nannochloropsis salina

Algal Research, 2018
Abstract Carbon dioxide (CO2) can be a significant resource input affecting the cost of algae biomass production on an industrial scale. Improvements in biofuel productivity therefore require characterization of CO2 use efficiency (CUE). RuBisCO saturation with CO2 is an important factor influencing biomass productivity.

Large‐scale importance of microbial carbon use efficiency and necromass to soil organic carbon

Global Change Biology, 2021
AbstractOptimal methods for incorporating soil microbial mechanisms of carbon (C) cycling into Earth system models (ESMs) are still under debate. Specifically, whether soil microbial physiology parameters and residual materials are important to soil organic C (SOC) content is still unclear. Here, we explored the effects of biotic and abiotic factors on

Dilemmas in Linking Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency With Soil Organic Carbon Dynamics

Global Change Biology
There are still large uncertainties on the relationships between microbial carbon use efficiency and soil organic carbon across (1) different carbon use efficiency estimation methods, (2) various temporal, spatial and biological scales, and (3) multiple climate change scenarios.
