Shrub encroachment alters plant trait response to nitrogen addition in a semi-arid grassland
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Encroachment of shrubs over large regions of arid and semi-arid grassland can affect grassland traits and growth under a background of increasing nitrogen (N) deposition. However, the effects of N input rates on species traits and the growth of shrubs on

Influence of Gate Dams on Yellow River Delta Wetlands
Land, 2022 Nested Delft 3D and Hydrus 1D models were applied to simulate variations in the hydrological process of tidal creeks, soil water, and salt transport in the soil profile of the reconstruction area in the Yellow River Delta under six gate dam scenarios ...

Foraging Dynamics and Entropy Production in a Simulated Proto-Cell
Entropy, 2022 All organisms depend on a supply of energetic resources to power behavior and the irreversible entropy-producing processes that sustain them. Dissipative structure theory has often been a source of inspiration for better understanding the thermodynamics ...
