Pittosporum kirkii: Autecology of an endemic shrub epiphyte [PDF]
, 2012 This research investigated the autecology of the New Zealand endemic shrub epiphyte Pittosporum kirkii (Pittosporaceae). Pittosporum kirkii most frequently displays an epiphytic lifestyle, perched amongst nest epiphytes in the canopies of emergent or ...

Styrene and its natural analogues: accumulation and sustainable production methods
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Styrene, also known as vinyl benzene, is a colourless, highly volatile petrochemical that serves as a key monomer in the production of polystyrene and styrene‐butadiene rubber. Its industrial synthesis via the alkylation of benzene with ethylene relies on fossil fuels, requiring high temperatures and toxic catalysts that contribute to ...

Oikos, EarlyView.Understanding the scales and mechanisms by which species composition interacts with ecosystem functions is critical for forecasting the effects of environmental perturbations on ecosystem services. However, the linkages between what regulates the ecosystem functions of dispersal‐capable networks of communities (metacommunities) and what regulates a ...

Oikos, EarlyView.The conversion of rainforests into rubber and oil palm plantations drives biodiversity loss in Southeast Asia. Parasitoid wasps are highly diverse and play an essential role in ecosystems by regulating herbivore populations. Declines in density and diversity of parasitoid wasps, after land‐use change is well‐documented, but potential functional losses ...

Water Interception and Monitoring for Environment Changing of Epiphytes
Shuitu baochi yanjiu, 2005 As an important compound of forest, epiphytes had drawn increasing attention since 1970s.Despite its high biodiversity and huge biomass,epiphytes could also affect nutrient cycling and water cycling.Since epiphytes were sensitive to environment changing ...
