Potential net primary productivity in South America: application of a global model [PDF]

, 1991
We use a mechanistically based ecosystem simulation model to describe and analyze the spatial and temporal patterns of terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP) in South America.

Generating golden Syrian hamsters with conditional alleles via zygote microinjection of CRISPR/Cas9

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We established the first conditional knockout (cKO) model in the golden Syrian hamster by CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated genome editing. Cas9 protein, two sgRNAs, and a donor plasmid carrying loxP‐flanked exon 2 of the ApoF gene were microinjected into one‐cell embryos. The floxed allele was efficiently generated (up to 27%) and transmitted through the germline.

Vegetation types alter soil respiration and its temperature sensitivity at the field scale in an estuary wetland.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Vegetation type plays an important role in regulating the temporal and spatial variation of soil respiration. Therefore, vegetation patchiness may cause high uncertainties in the estimates of soil respiration for scaling field measurements to ecosystem ...

Global ecological predictors of the soil priming effect. [PDF]

, 2019
Identifying the global drivers of soil priming is essential to understanding C cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. We conducted a survey of soils across 86 globally-distributed locations, spanning a wide range of climates, biotic communities, and soil ...

Effects of diurnal warming on soil respiration are not equal to the summed effects of day and night warming in a temperate steppe [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2009
The magnitude of daily minimum temperature increase is greater than that of daily maximum temperature increase under climate warming. This study was conducted to examine whether changes in soil respiration under diurnal warming are equal to the summed ...

Removal of Methylene Blue and Congo Red Dyes Using Sustainable and Eco‐Friendly Bioadsorbents: A Review

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The continuous increasing discharge of synthetic dyes into aquatic systems seems to be an important environmental and health risk due to their high toxicity and resistance to biodegradation. Among these dyes, methylene blue (MB) and Congo red (CR) are widely used in textile and industrial applications, necessitating sustainable and efficient ...

Improving ecosystem respiration estimates for CO2 flux partitioning by discriminating water and temperature controls on above- and below-ground sources

Ecological Indicators
Empirical models for estimating ecosystem respiration (ER) are widely used in CO2 flux partitioning algorithms that partition net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) into gross primary productivity (GPP) and ER due to advantages of simple structures.

Increased CO₂ loss from vegetated drained lake tundra ecosystems due to flooding [PDF]

, 2012
Tundra ecosystems are especially sensitive to climate change, which is particularly rapid in high northern latitudes resulting in significant alterations in temperature and soil moisture.
