Would reducing chlorophyll content result in a higher photosynthesis nitrogen use efficiency in crops?

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 13, Issue 4, July/August 2024.
Abstract Decreasing antenna size is considered a potential option for improving photosynthesis and increasing yield potential. Reducing chlorophyll content has been employed as a strategy to decrease antenna size. One of the commonly mentioned advantages of this approach is its ability to enhance crop nitrogen use efficiency (NUE); however, there is ...

Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor (CEMP) stars [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009
AbstractA significant fraction of metal-poor stars have large over-abundances of carbon, and are called Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor (CEMP) stars. Most of CEMP stars also show excesses of heavy neutron-capture elements like Ba, indicating that their origin is the nucleosynthesis in AGB stars.

What helium and lithium can tell us about CEMP stars? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We show that the peculiar surface abundance patterns of Carbon Enhanced Metal Poor (CEMP) stars has been inherited from material having been processed by H- and He-burning phases in a previous generation of stars (hereafter called the "Source Stars”). In

Evaluating Classifications of Extremely Metal-poor Candidates Selected from Gaia XP Spectra

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Extremely metal-poor stars are intrinsically rare, but emerging methods exist to accurately classify them from all-sky Gaia XP low-resolution spectra.

Delay in Adélie penguin nest occupation restricts parental investment in nest construction and reduces reproductive output

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
In the Windmill Islands, it is not well‐known what drives Adélie penguin reproductive success. Here, we utilised remotely operated cameras to determine the drivers of this and found that adult behaviour largely influences nest survival and reproductive success.

Three extremely metal-poor stars: discovery of a new CEMP-no star

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
ABSTRACT We have conducted detailed high-resolution spectroscopic studies on three extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars HE 0401–0138, HE 1153–0518, and HE 1246–1344. For the stars HE 0401–0138 and HE 1246–1344, we have estimated the abundances of C, Na, Mg, Ca, Sc, Ti, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Sr, and Ba along with the upper limits for Li, O, La ...

Mapping the Milky Way with Gaia BP/RP Spectra. III. The First Medium-resolution Follow-up Spectroscopy of Metal-poor Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The Gaia BP/RP spectra provide an excellent opportunity to search for extremely metal-poor (EMP; [M/H] ≤ –3.0) stars. In this study, we assess the potential of our Gaia BP/RP-based candidate catalog, vetting newly identified EMP candidates with higher ...

CEMP stars: possible hosts to carbon planets in the early Universe

open access: yes, 2017
We explore the possibility of planet formation in the carbon-rich protoplanetary disks of carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars, possible relics of the early Universe.

How plausible are the proposed formation scenarios of CEMP-

open access: yes, 2016
CEMP-r/s stars are metal-poor stars with enhanced abundances of carbon and heavy elements associated with the slow and rapid neutron-capture process (s- and r-elements, respectively).
