Nonlinear interactive effects of temperature and soil moisture on plant biomass and carbon fluxes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Climate warming is affecting plant growth and CO2 fluxes in high‐latitude ecosystems. However, soil moisture – and how it responds to warming – can alter the shape of the relationship between temperature and both plant performance and ecosystem processes. We conducted a microcosm experiment to test the interactive effects of temperature, soil moisture,

Phosphorus limits the growth of bacterial and eukaryotic primary producers in recently deglaciated High Arctic soils

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Glaciers are receding at unprecedented rates worldwide, exposing large areas of barren sediment that are quickly colonized by microbes. Nutrient availability is a critical driver of early ecosystem succession, but in the High Arctic its role has remained uncertain.

Development of a novel cyclonic flow combustion chamber for achieving MILD/Flameless Combustion

open access: yes, 2014
The present study investigates the characteristics of MILD/Flameless Combustion in a prismatic (20x20x5 cm3) laboratory-scale burner. The main pre-heated flow rate composed by diluent and oxygen and the fuel (at environmental temperature) are fed inside ...

Behavior of Injection‐Molded Nylon 6 Composites With Virgin and Field‐Exposed Waste‐Recycled Blends

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Recycling field‐exposed Nylon 6 composites for sustainable secondary applications. ABSTRACT Every year, more than 18,600 metric tonnes of glass fiber‐reinforced Nylon 6 composite waste from sucker rod guides used in downhole oil and gas applications are landfilled due to uncertainty about retained performance after prolonged service exposure.

Combustion of methanol in diesel engine using diethyl ether as ignition enhancer

open access: yes, 2017
In this study, combustion of methanol in diesel engine is investigated using diethyl ether (DEE) as an ignition enhancer. Both experimental and numerical studies were performed and the results are compared with baseline diesel fuel.

Spent Artemisia arborescens as a Biowaste Filler for Melt‐Processed PBSA Biocomposites With Enhanced Disintegration and Aerobic Biodegradation

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Spent Artemisia arborescens biomass, recovered after essential‐oil steam distillation, was ground and melt‐compounded with PBSA (10 and 20 wt%), yielding biocomposites with accelerated biodegradation. ABSTRACT Artemisia arborescens is a Mediterranean shrub widely used for essential oil production, generating significant amounts of spent biomass after ...
