Historical logging, productivity, and structural characteristics of boreal coniferous forests in Norway

Silva Fennica, 2005
Conservation of forest biodiversity has brought about an interest in evaluating the naturalness of forests, and to locate and protect semi-natural and old-growth forests in the Fennoscandian countries. However, it is not always clear how natural these

Using Siberian fir (Abies sibirica) dead wood in wood fiberboard production

BioResources
This paper considers the possibility of using Siberian fir (Abies sibirica) wood damaged by Polygraphus proximus Blandford after various periods of its death (up to 19 years) as raw material to produce fiberboard. Damaged wood was mechanically processed into chips of various dimensions as per GOST 15815(1983).

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Composites of Shellac and Silver Nanowires as Flexible, Biobased, and Corrosion‐Resistant Transparent Conductive Electrodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Shellac, a centuries‐old natural resin, is reimagined as a green material for flexible electronics. When combined with silver nanowires, shellac films deliver transparency, conductivity, and stability against humidity. These results position shellac as a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers for transparent conductors in next‐generation ...

Dead Wood: Key to Enhancing Wildlife Diversity in Forests

EDIS, 2007
WEC238, a 6-page illustrated fact sheet by Holly K. Ober and Patrick J. Minogue, explains how snags, logs, and brush piles provide important resources for wildlife, how these habitat elements can be created, and how much dead wood to provide.

Unleashing the Power of Machine Learning in Nanomedicine Formulation Development

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A random forest machine learning model is able to make predictions on nanoparticle attributes of different nanomedicines (i.e. lipid nanoparticles, liposomes, or PLGA nanoparticles) based on microfluidic formulation parameters. Machine learning models are based on a database of nanoparticle formulations, and models are able to generate unique solutions

DNA‐Templated 2D Heterostructures as Phototriggered Dynamic Nanohybrids: From Releasing Molecular Loads to Controlling Enzyme Biocatalytic Function

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DNA strands are employed both as dynamic linkers and nanoscale templates for the integration of Ag2S nanoparticles on MoS2, which in turn imparted photothermal responsiveness; this feature permits the selective cargo (fluorophore, quantum dots or an enzyme) release from the MoS2 surface in response to local heat induced by light irradiation.

Effect of branch position and light availability on shoot growth of understory sugar maple and yellow birch saplings [PDF]

, 2000
Phenotypic plasticity enables tree saplings to change their morphology according to their environment to grow toward a better light micro-habitat. Therefore, processes of crown development could be expected to vary as a function of light.
